Her childhood was forged in shadows, and she was sharpened into a weapon, trained to be a ghost, a killer—an instrument of vengeance. The target: a decorated general who brought down her family. But fate doesn't follow orders. Just as Lara was about to execute her long-planned mission, everything spiraled out of control. A military convoy intercepted her escape route—escorting none other than the general himself. And then came the moment that changed everything. A blinding crash. Screeching tires. Her body was thrown like a ragdoll, then darkness. She had a fleeting recollection of another world, another lifetime where kings ruled the land with an iron fist. But she woke up, and twelve long months had passed.  She did not know where she was or who she was. She remembered nothing. They told her different names. A child with trembling hope whispered, “Mommy, your name is Moira Torres.” Her doctor insisted, “Your admission slip says Larissa Reyes.” A hardened general leaned close and commanded, “Remember who you are. Remember your mission.” Then another general—dangerously calm, incredibly familiar—looked at her as if she mattered and asked, “Can I call you Lara?” The name unlocked something buried deep in her soul. Lara Norse Kromwel. Daughter of General Odin Norse. Empress of the First Empire. But the man who watched her most closely dismissed it with cold certainty. “This is the 21st century,” he said. “What nonsense are you spouting? What Empress? You are my woman. You can only be mine!"

She provides the medicine for his mother and the servers for his genius. The world calls him her "kept man." They don't know he’s the architect of her financial empire.

Celia Sterling, heiress of the Sterling Conglomerate, is dazzlingly beautiful and charming, yet proud and haughty. In this world, only Kian Sterling can be her master. So, he made the decision to betroth her to Declan Nash, the eldest son of the equally powerful Norwood Conglomerate. Declan Nash, a notorious and untamable playboy, fell for Celia Sterling at first sight. After pleading with Kian Sterling for a year, he finally made the titan of the financial world relent: "If you can remain chaste for my sister, you may marry her." Declan Nash abstained from worldly desires for three years and finally secured a wedding date. With the interests of their powerful families bound by the marriage alliance, and confident that marrying Celia Sterling was a foregone conclusion, he revealed his true nature by having a bachelor party three months before the wedding. Kian Sterling's voice was faint: "Declan Nash is no longer an option." … The head of the Norwood Family, Silas Norwood, is reserved, aloof, and noble—an unattainable moon in the sky that socialites yearn for but can never reach. When Kian Sterling brought Celia Sterling to call off the engagement, Silas Norwood nonchalantly dismissed it: "My nephew Declan Nash is preposterous, but the marriage alliance between our two families involves too many entangled interests. Miss Sterling, this engagement cannot be broken." His gaze rested quietly on Celia Sterling's face, his expression unruffled: "How about switching to me?" Kian Sterling scoffed: "The unattainable Moonlight yearned for by the socialites is about to descend into the mortal world?" Silas Norwood lowered his gaze: "For a businessman, interests come first. Why not enter the game myself?" … Later, with red-rimmed eyes, Declan Nash cornered Silas Norwood in the Norwood family's ancestral hall: "What do you mean, 'enter the game myself'? This was clearly premeditated all along!"

Everyone mourned the decorated police officer who died in a failed raid against the underworld. Everyone—except his younger brother. To the world, Yuren is just an innocent college boy with soft smiles and gentle eyes, quietly dating the city’s most untouchable man: Kairav Voss, the billionaire CEO rumored to freeze rooms with a glance. A man the media calls The Cold King. A man the underworld knows as its silent executioner. What no one knows is that Yuren stepped into Kairav’s arms with a single purpose: revenge. His brother didn’t die in a mission. He was executed. As Yuren sinks deeper into Kairav’s glass-and-blood empire, mafia partners begin to die—one by one—each death cleaner, quieter, more impossible than the last. No witnesses. No suspects. Only whispers of a ghost moving through the underworld. All the while, Kairav’s heart—long believed to be incapable of love—melts for the boy who feels like salvation. But obsession twists both ways. Kairav doesn’t see the monster growing beside him. Yuren doesn’t expect to fall so deeply into the arms of the very man he plans to destroy. Love turns into possession. Trust becomes a weapon. And the truth—when it finally surfaces—shatters everything they believe. Because the real villain was never hiding in the shadows. He was smiling sweetly in lecture halls. Sleeping beside the king of the underworld. Kissing him like a promise. In the final, unforgivable twist, the truth is revealed: the hand that killed the police officer… belongs to the one Kairav loves most. And for love—true, obsessive, ruinous love— the Cold King dies by his boyfriend’s hand. A story of betrayal disguised as devotion, of innocence that masks annihilation, and of a love so absolute it chooses destruction over mercy. Some hearts don’t break. They burn the world instead.
