To prevent an all-out war between humans and demons, Princess Evelyne of Solmere is forced to marry Demon King Azrael, the ruthless ruler of the Underworld. Their union is meant to bring peace, but instead, it sparks a battle of wills. Evelyne despises him for his cruelty, while Azrael sees her as a mere pawn.

But as dark secrets unravel, she realizes that the true enemy lurks in the shadows—someone who wants both the human and demon realms to burn. Caught between betrayal and forbidden passion, Evelyne must decide: Will she fight against the Demon King or stand by his side to save their world?

Love and war have never been more dangerous

The Forbidden Pact: Loving the Demon King

The air within the fortress had grown heavier with tension. Evelyne could feel it pressing down on her like an unseen weight, a foreboding presence that made the flickering candlelight seem dimmer than usual. Azrael had been gone for hours, summoned to a meeting with his war council, leaving her alone in the chambers that no longer felt like a sanctuary.

She paced before the tall windows, her hands clenched into fists. The spirit's warning still echoed in her mind, a riddle she could not untangle. The pact is not as it seems. Lies. Deception. But what did it mean? She had tried to push it aside, to focus on understanding the world she had been forced into, but the words had burrowed into her thoughts, refusing to leave her in peace.

A knock at the door made her whirl around, her heart lurching. Lyria stepped inside, her violet eyes unreadable.

"The king has returned," she announced, her voice soft yet firm. "He wishes to see you immediately."
