James Carter was never the strongest student at his hero academy — just the most reliable one. His ability, Bond Link, let him sense his teammates' condition and quietly sharpen their coordination from the shadows. He trusted his team completely. He protected them. He helped them grow. Then, the moment after their biggest victory, they threw him away — deemed "too dependent on others" to be worth keeping. As James walks away from the team he built, Bond Link awakens into something no one ever told him it could become. It isn't a coordination skill at all. It's the power to read — and bind — a person's true potential. And the deeper the bond, the more James can reshape someone's future entirely. At first, all he wants is answers. But when he turns his newly unlocked ability on his former teammates, he uncovers something far more disturbing: their potential has been suppressed all along — deliberately, by someone who got there before him. Someone who understood Bond Link's real nature long before James ever did. Betrayed, awakened, and now hunted by a truth buried in his own ability, James must decide what kind of power he's willing to become — before whoever created this system decides for him.

In the underworld of ruthless power and unforgiving loyalty, I made an oath that would bind me for life—a blood oath sealed by vengeance, desire, and a woman who became my most dangerous weakness. They call me a monster, a king in a kingdom built on violence and fear. But I never asked for this life. I only wanted to survive. Then she walked into my world—fiery, untamed, and brimming with secrets. Our bond was meant to be temporary. A flash marriage. A simple alliance in a world where trust is a currency no one dares to spend. But with her, everything changed. The Mafia doesn’t forgive, and neither do I. She’ll learn that soon enough as I drag her through a storm of betrayal, bloodshed, and passion she never expected. Our marriage may have been a lie, but my hunger for her is very real. Now, we’re both trapped by an oath we can't escape, each step we take pulling us deeper into a world that only one of us will survive. And in the end, the savage honor I live by might just be the death of us both.
