Soren Knight was meant to marry the perfect bride. Instead, a drunken night in Vegas left him with a husband he barely knew. Adrian Vega never asked for a billionaire’s world, or the spotlight that came with it. But one reckless marriage ties him to a man who sees love as weakness and business as everything. What begins as a deal to protect Soren’s empire soon turns into something dangerously real. Between scandals, betrayal, and a secret that links Adrian’s past to Soren’s family, their mistake might be the one thing neither of them can walk away from.

"Either get married to me or lose everything." Those were his exact words. It's cold. Correct. Terrible. That is how Damien Blake, the wealthy CEO who smirked and fired me once, asked me to marry him. I never thought I'd agree to get married if I didn't believe in it. However, I had no choice when my dad's business failed and our house was taken away. Damien offered to save me. On paper. No feelings. Don't get close. It was only a six-month deal to save his fortune and keep me in line. But living in that glass tower with him... Asleep just inches from his evil grin, those dangerous hands, and his fiery eyes? The rules became less clear. And the lines we said we wouldn't cross? I gave in to him that night and burned to ash. Right now, I'm keeping a secret from you. He is also hiding something worse, something that could kill both of us. But what if the person I thought was my enemy was actually the only person who could keep me safe? He has no idea that I'm pregnant. Someone wants to bring him down, even if it means bringing me down with it.

18 was the year everything shattered. My parents divorced. My lover cheated. My best friend deceived me. Now, all I want is to survive senior year in silence. But silence isn’t possible when your skin suddenly glows with weird runes, the world freezes in arithmetic class, and a recruiter pulls you to The Obsidian Academy school for monsters that shouldn’t exist. I don’t know what I am. But the boys here… they appear determined to find out: A storm-eyed werewolf who saves me but swears I’ll ruin him. A vampire prince who says my blood is his alone. A dragon boy who nearly burns me alive protecting me. A sinfully hot professor who stares at me like I broke his heart in another life. I came here hoping for answers. Instead, I’ve unearthed a curse older than the Academy itself, one that binds me to them in ways I can’t fight. And when passion becomes deadly, treachery bleeds deeper than love. I thought I was human. But the monsters aren’t my foes. The true risk is what I’m becoming.
