Every agonizing pulse carries the distant, dying roar of the dragon he was forced to rip from his soul during the Cleave War, a catastrophic betrayal that fractured the continent of Eldoria and left Xavier a mutated exile.

On the day of his graduation, Ethan Cole dropped to one knee before the woman he thought he would spend forever with. But instead of a "yes," her laughter cut through the air, sharp and humiliating. She told him he was unworthy, a nobody scraping by on part-time jobs, unfit to even breathe the same air as her. In front of the entire school, she walked away, straight into the arms of a wealthy heir who showered her with luxuries beyond imagination. What she never knew was that Ethan wasn’t poor at all. His family secretly controlled 70% of the world’s wealth, and by ancient family rule, he had been forced to live humbly until graduation. Now, on the eve of inheriting a global empire, Ethan will rise, not just to claim what is his, but to show the world, and the woman who scorned him, exactly who he is. But as Ethan steps into power, enemies circle. Greedy corporations, shadowy organizations, and even members of his own bloodline want him destroyed. In love and in war, he must navigate betrayal, vengeance, and temptation, while uncovering a darker truth: that power comes with a cost even money can’t pay. His ex thought she rejected a poor man. She had no idea she awakened a king.

Once upon a time, Mattheo March was nothing more than a lowly son-in-law. A man cast out, mocked, and even deemed unworthy to sit at his wife’s family table. One day, his life crumbled completely when his sister, Elodi, fell on the brink of death. In desperation, Mattheo awakened an inheritance he didn’t even know still flowed through his veins—the legacy of the March Burglar family, a legendary line of healers who once stood at the pinnacle of the medical world, but vanished mysteriously. An unexpected encounter with Mark Spencer leads him down a path filled with secrets. The man, who claims to have a connection to the March Burgler family, provides Mattheo with all the information he needs and guides him, preparing him to become a great healer like his ancestors. However, before Mark could finish preparing him, his abilities accidentally saved a VIP patient and the recording was leaked, causing the world to start searching for the “mysterious healer.” Behind the public spotlight, Mattheo discovered a bitter truth—the destruction of his family was not fate, but the result of a conspiracy led by powerful figures in the medical world. From the shadows, he began to piece together a cold but unstoppable plan for revenge. He came to expose the betrayal that the March Burglar family had endured, leading to the disappearance of the healers in his family and the erasure of all traces of their existence. He came to seek revenge against those who, even to this day, despite not knowing that he was a descendant of the March Burgler family, still hated and disrupted his life, leading to the deaths of his parents. Mattheo swore to restore the name of March Burgler to its rightful place in the eyes of the world.
