If he fails to protect her, the Scions of Chaos will capture her and turn his divine spark into a weapon against the world. ​Now, the Son-in-Law must rise as the Commander, using his hidden power to seize billions, crush his rivals, and fight a secret war to protect the one woman who is both his jailer and the only reason he remains a man.
