I never summoned him. I never wanted him. The Demon King returned anyway. For three hundred years, he ruled in blood—shattering empires, breaking gods, leaving continents silent in his wake. Heroes sealed him because killing him was impossible. They were right. What they didn’t expect? He came back for me. I’m Commander Valeira, holding a decaying kingdom together while politicians scheme and demons tear at our borders. I don’t believe in legends. Until one steps into my study. Tall. Ancient. Terrifying. And he kneels. “I am yours to command, Master.” No contract. No chains. Only the ancient authority in my blood—one even a Demon King cannot deny. But authority isn’t control. He follows every order. He erases every threat. He refuses to leave my side. And when assassins strike, when the Council turns against me, when the world begins to fracture— He stops asking permission. “I ruled hell,” he whispers, eyes burning in the dark. “I chose you. And I will let nothing take you from me.” They feared him as a king. They will learn to fear him as mine.

In a world of glittering skyscrapers and cold-blooded ambition, Ruby Dior is a woman living on the edge of a secret. Four years ago, she sold a night of her life to the powerful Boron family to save her dying mother. She emerged with her soul intact but her world forever changed, raising her daughter, Mira, in the quiet shadows of the city. The illusion of safety shatters when Ruby is forced into the "Perfect Bride" competition—a twisted pageant designed by the Boron patriarch, Silas, to find a woman worthy of his dynasty. But the stakes are higher than a title: Ruby discovers that her son, Leo, whom she was told died at birth, is alive and being raised as a cold corporate heir within the Boron walls. As Silas decrees that his multi-billion-dollar empire will only be inherited by the son who successfully weds Ruby, she becomes the most hunted woman in the city. Her suitors are three brothers with vastly different hearts: the repentant Baron, the calculating Zion, and the volatile Brick. Standing against the Boron tide is Karan Doe, a man of mystery and immense power who claims to be Ruby's true protector. Yet, even his sanctuary has strings attached. When Ruby realizes that she is being treated as a prize by both sides, she makes a choice that shocks the elite: she walks away from the penthouses and the power plays. Now living a "normal" life in a cramped apartment with her friend Ivy, Ruby works as a dance tutor, determined to raise her twins on her own terms. But with a lethal tracking chip still embedded in her neck and the Boron princess, Zara, using Karan’s own sister as a pawn to manipulate her way into Ruby’s inner circle, the peace is a fragile lie. The battle for the bride is a story of a mother’s fierce love, the weight of a stolen past, and the dangerous romance that ignites when a woman refuses to be owned. In the battle for the Boron crown, Ruby Dior is the only player who knows that the most powerful thing in the room isn't money—it's the truth.

It all started with that one proposal, a deal-turned-bait pulling him into something dark, yet irresistible and inescapable. ____ Ryan Kane is mixed-race, poor, and worst still, in a university where everything screams "silver and gold". He thinks his scholarship and education are his only way to a future better than his present. But this guy's grades aren't helping matters as he keeps juggling between lectures, attendance, and part-time jobs. The lower his grades get, the closer he is to withdrawing, going back to his deadbeat of a father, and having a life with nothing. Well, he absolutely doesn't want a reality like that, and to avert that, his only option was getting a tutor. Ryan’s desperate enough to ask Adrian Val. On campus and to everyone, Adrian is the perfect, well-behaved, brilliant heir to a top conglomerate family. While in private, he is a possessive, manipulative jerk who does a lot of unimaginable things. When Ryan proposes tutoring to him, Adrian offers that he pay with his body instead. To him, Ryan can't afford his time and knowledge with just his measly bucks. Ryan says yes to the offer, and along the line, he falls heavily for Adrian. But even when Adrian rejects his confession and treats him like a toy way worse than before, Ryan doesn't leave. He wants the tutoring, the intimacy, the sex, his persistent feelings for Adrian, and the tiny hope that Adrian's heart may steer towards him. It gets even messier when Adrian’s friend Liam enters the picture. Liam is calm, kind, and actually cares about Ryan, but he holds back his feelings to keep the peace. Then there is also Chase, a rich troublemaker who openly flirts with Ryan. Trapped in a dirty cycle of sex, love, and heartbreak, everything Ryan had and held dear to him came tumbling gradually. And by the time he realizes the depth of it, it is too late. Too late to even hold onto anything. Only to be caught between three powerful men who all want a piece of him for different reasons.

People often ask me these questions which I find amusing. “Are you happy?” “Are you sad that you were made this way?” “Do you wish you could see the sky?” The questions usually come wrapped in a heavy blanket of hesitation. I can smell the anxiety on them—acrid, like burnt sugar. I can hear the shift in their clothing as they lean in, expecting to see a tear roll down my cheek. They want a tragedy. They want me to validate their fear that my existence is a nightmare. I think to myself: What is happiness? Is it the ability to scream until your throat is raw? Is it the ability to witness the ugliness of the world with your own eyes? Because I have never for once thought I was miserable just because I couldn't talk, or that I was "lesser" because I was blind.
