"They took my name. I took their heiress—and their empire." Five years ago, Jaxith Vance was betrayed by his own brother, stripped of his family legacy, and left to die in a fire. But he didn't perish in the dark. Reborn with the ancient power of the Sovereign Core and backed by unstoppable shadow capital, the exiled billionaire returns to the neon-lit metropolis of Aethelgard to claim ultimate vengeance. To corner his brother into submission and seize control of the trade routes, Jaxith executes a ruthless takeover of his rival's empire—claiming the breathtaking, lethal syndicate heiress, Elena Rostova, as his fiancée in a high-stakes alliance. Elena is no damsel in distress; she is a weapon disguised in silk with her own traitors to hunt. What begins as a cold, strategic marriage turns into a dangerous, white-hot obsession as they wage a corporate bloodbath against the dark forces governing the underworld. The Apex Council thinks they rule the world from the shadows... until the Shadow Sovereign comes to collect his debt.

On the night Kael Varyn is crowned king, Hell comes to collect. His father signed a contract with the Devil's Seven Houses, and the collateral was his own son. The debt collector is Seraphine Vale, a seductive demon who marks Kael with a seal of thorns and gives him one warning: do not fall in love with me. But in this contract, a kiss is a legal seal, and Seraphine is not what she seems. There are two of her. One holds a grudge and a heartbeat. The other wears a wedding dress and calls him husband. To save his kingdom, Kael must win seven infernal bargains, survive the deadly politics of the Houses and uncover what his father hid beneath the palace. Every bargain costs something he can never get back, and every touch from the woman who owns his damnation pulls him closer to the gate his father died trying to close. A dark romantic fantasy of enemies to lovers, forbidden love, betrayal, demons and a kiss that binds the damned.
