Especially when the death of that person could bring you a step closer to your utmost goal.

A boy lost in the world, unseen and unheard. No one understands him—not his family, not his friends, not even strangers passing by. Yet he survives, breathes, and exists through the stories he writes. His words are his refuge, his only connection to a world that overlooks him. Every page he fills is a piece of himself, a silent scream into the emptiness. In a life full of indifference, his stories are the only place where he truly lives.

Everyone fears Damien Idris Petersen. The cold-hearted billionaire CEO who built an empire at twenty and destroys anyone who crosses him. Handsome enough to tempt angels and cruel enough to break hearts without guilt. But Damien has one rule: Never trust women. So when a reckless business deal forces him to appear with a fiancée in two weeks, he does the unthinkable — he chooses a random girl from a debtor’s family to play the role. Simple. Temporary. No emotions attached. At least… that was the plan. Because the girl he chooses is nothing like the women he knows. She’s stubborn, sharp-tongued, fearless, and completely immune to his intimidating presence. For the first time in years, Damien loses control. And when fake feelings begin to turn real, hidden secrets, painful pasts, and dangerous enemies threaten to tear them apart. She was supposed to be part of a deal. So why does losing her suddenly feel impossible?

My groom has abandoned me for my sister, and your fiancée has run away. Why don't we turn this awkward situation into an opportunity?” She smiled boldly. “Let's get married, right here, right now!” Westley’s expression remained unreadable, but briefly, a hint of intrigue flickered in his eyes. He raised an eyebrow, “You're suggesting we marry each other, and also we are complete strangers?” Evie nodded in confidence. “Why not? We're both clearly compatible, and this way, we can both save face and gain a partner, except for the fact that this will be a contract marriage of six months.” Westley's gaze lingered on hers as if sizing her up. Then, he nodded slowly. “Very well, let's do it.” ... “You're either very brave or very reckless to make such an attempt in picking me as your husband in public,” he said after the marriage. “If I didn't try, we wouldn't have figured out a way to get this opportunity.” She responded. ….

WARNING: Some mature content!!! 18+ This is what you call Urbantasy.. Fantasy in an urban setting with a strong female lead -- a story riddled in mystery, magic, and a lot of sass. ======= CHAPTER 1 sneak peek! ======= The air between them tightened like a rope. Cael leaned closer, head tilting slightly, pulling at her waist again, smugness softened into something sharper and quieter. His eyes flicked to her lips then back to her eyes as if asking for permission he didn't need. Hunger of a different kind pumped through Cael. The hunger that Galathea unmistakably recognized as it pressed hard against her lower abs, forcing through the fabric as if it can tear through. At the sensation, Galathea's mouth parted before she could stop it. Her whole body screamed at her to either shove him away or close the last inch between their lips herself. ===== SYNOPSIS ===== Galathea Brooks spent her life surviving quietly -- counting inventory, enforcing rules, keeping her head down inside one of the most powerful art institutions in the city. It's a simple life because paint doesn't talk; power doesn't notice people like her. and names are just names. -- That is... until a painting remembered her. When ancient works buried beneath Artemis Art Gallery began to respond to Galathea's presence, she becomes the center of the system that's older than the building itself. A system that cataloged her long before she knew it existed. Her name is not a coincidence. It is a KEY. Cael Alexander, on the other hand, has always understood control. As Artemis' immaculate but dangerous CEO, he manages secrets like no other. He knows the gallery and its bowels more than anyone. He knows what's hidden; he knows what's awaken. What he didn't expect, however, was Galathea. As archaic works of art start to stir, boundaries fracture -- between observer and artifact, power and possession, restraint and desire. Every choice Galathea makes draws her deeper into fate that doesn't want permission... only acknowledgement. Mind you, awakenings don't ask when you're ready.
