The Dragon's Aegis
{Warning: R18, erotica, smut, intense intimate scene, harem}
In the glittering world of the super-elite, some cages are made of gold, and some souls are sold for a signature.
To the powerful Hayasaka family, Haruki Nakano was a convenient tool—a husband with no name, no power, and no ambition. For a year, he was their silent servant, a ghost in their halls who absorbed their cruelty without a word, his eyes a placid, unreadable void. They saw him as worthless, a necessary evil to be hidden and ignored.
They never thought to ask what lay behind that silence. They never wondered about the weight in his cold, empty gaze. It was the weight of a crown.
It took an act of unforgivable cruelty—the sacrifice of an innocent to a monster for a business deal—to finally awaken the power he had kept chained. In that moment, the servant died, and the king rose.
From the quiet corners of a dining room to the heart of a corporate boardroom, watch as the world is turned upside down. The family's vast empire crumbles in a single hour. And the servant they tormented reveals himself to be the one man on Earth they should have never, ever crossed: Haruki Shinonome, the young sovereign of a shadow dynasty so powerful it treats nations like pieces on a chessboard.
With his tormentors kneeling at his feet, Haruki's true story begins. He is a king who must reclaim his throne, a master who must discipline his new pet, and a man who must reunite the scattered pillars of his world: the brilliant, dangerous, and fiercely loyal Queens who have been waiting for his return.
This is a story of how a man, stripped of everything, reclaims his world. It’s a story of a family forged in the fires of rebellion and sacrifice. And it asks one question: When you have the power to unmake your enemies, what do you choose to build in their place?
