But the illusion shattered on their fifth anniversary. When thugs disrupted their celebration, Ethan shielded Vivian with his body, receiving a near-fatal stab wound. Waking up in his hospital bed, he overheard Vivian speaking sharply in German over the phone: "I hired those people to break up the anniversary. Jack is back, and I couldn't celebrate with Ethan.

The cold CEO is plunged into a frantic, desperate search—only to realize she may have lost him to the line of fire forever.

“Sign it, Edward.” Edward Cole stared at the divorce papers in his wife's trembling hand. Three years ago, he took the fall for her brother's crime. Three years ago, he walked into Hell Prison so her family could stay free. Three years ago, he sacrificed everything—his freedom, his reputation, and his future—for the woman he loved. Now she looked at him with disgust. “You're an ex-convict,” she said coldly. “You don't deserve to stand beside me anymore.” Her words shattered what remained of his heart. While he suffered in prison, she became a business queen. What she never knew was that every contract, every opportunity, and every miracle that built her empire came from him. From the shadows, he protected her, loved her, and gave her everything. Yet when he finally returned, all he received was betrayal. Her family mocked him. Society despised him. Everyone believed Edward Cole was nothing but worthless trash. Until one phone call changed everything. “Lord Zeus, shall we reveal your identity?” The world's most powerful billionaires bowed their heads. Kings waited for his orders. Entire nations trembled at his name. The man they abandoned was Zeus—the hidden ruler of Apex of the Stars. And now, those who broke his heart would learn the price of betrayal.

Takes it and the fire burns in his veins as though it has always been there.

On the night of Kael Draven’s birth, the skies split in two. The moon turned blood-red, the Veil of Aegis—the sacred barrier protecting the kingdom of Eryndor—shattered, and demons poured into the realm, slaughtering thousands. His mother died in childbirth, and the High Hierophant Malrick, leader of the Sanctum of Luminar, declared the newborn child the source of the calamity. From that moment, Kael was branded the “cursed child,” a walking omen of doom. His noble family disowned him, his name erased from their records, while his younger brother Aelric was exalted as the chosen heir. Kael grew up in chains, spat upon by peasants and nobles alike, humiliated in public festivals, and treated as less than a dog. His only friend was Fang, a scarred stray dog who shared his pain. Yet fate had other plans. During the grand trial, where Kael was condemned to die by being devoured by a monstrous beast in the royal arena, the curse mark on his body ignited. A fading celestial spirit, Elyndra, bonded with him, and his soul unlocked the Eclipse Codex, a divine system hidden within the mark. What the world called a curse revealed itself as a path to power. Despised by all, betrayed by blood, and hunted by the temple, Kael will rise from scorned trash to savior of Eryndor. The curse they fear is the only hope of salvation against Umbraxis, the Eternal Hunger—the primordial evil sealed at Kael’s birth, now stirring once again.

"Sign it, Leon. A trash like you doesn't deserve to breathe the same air as the Miller family anymore." Leon Ardent looked at the divorce papers on the cold marble table. For three years, he had been the perfect house-husband. He cooked, he cleaned, and he endured the constant mockery of his wife’s wealthy relatives. He was the "Garbage Son-in-Law" of Northwood City. He did it all to fulfill a secret vow of humility. But today, the vow was over. "Is this what you truly want, Sarah?" Leon asked quietly. Sarah Miller didn't even look at him. She was busy leaning into the arms of Julian Vance, the billionaire heir who had promised her a throne. "I want a king, Leon. Not a servant.
