She was a bride on her wedding day. By morning, she was a slave in chains.
Aurelia’s world ends the moment it should’ve begun. Her wedding dress still clings to her skin when demons slaughter her husband and drag her away from everything she ever loved.
Sold at auction like cattle, her worth is measured in gold—not screams.
And her buyer is no ordinary monster.
He is Tenebrarum Mortifer—the demon whose name turns kings to ash. Cold. Cruel. Untouchable. He didn’t buy her for love.
He bought her to break her.
But Aurelia does not shatter. Her grief becomes fire. Her hatred, a blade. And the more she resists, the more the monster who owns her... starts to unravel.
What began as torment twists into something far more dangerous.
She was meant to be his plaything.
Now, she’s the one breaking him.

In a kingdom ruled by demons, where broken girls burn brighter than magic—can a soul forged in grief ignite a love even hell can’t destroy?
