I married the devil to bury my father
Everyone calls Damien De Luca the Devil.
A man feared by politicians, worshipped by criminals, and powerful enough to bring billionaires to their knees.
Elena Devereaux never imagined she would knock on the Devil’s door—until the man she called Father destroyed everything she loved.
To the world, Vincent Devereaux is a respected billionaire and devoted family man. Behind closed doors, he is a master manipulator whose empire is built on blood, lies, and betrayal. When Elena discovers she has been groomed to become the perfect scapegoat for his crimes, she makes a desperate choice.
She offers Damien De Luca a marriage.
Not for love.
Not for money.
But for revenge.
Bound by a dangerous alliance, Elena and Damien step into a deadly game where every secret has a price, every smile hides a weapon, and trusting the wrong person could mean death.
But as buried family secrets begin to surface and their fake marriage starts to feel dangerously real, Elena realizes the Devil isn’t the most terrifying man in her life.
Her father is.
When love becomes the greatest weakness and revenge demands the ultimate sacrifice, Elena must decide what she’s willing to lose to bury the man who gave her his name.
Because some devils are born.
Others are created by family.

Chapter: The First Seat The laboratory fell into absolute silence. The countdown continued above every monitor. 22:41 22:40 22:39 Adrian Wolfe stood just inside the elevator. His charcoal suit was untouched. His silver ring reflected the crimson emergency lights. He smiled politely, as though he had been invited. “My apologies,” he said. “I dislike making dramatic entrances.” Marco didn’t lower his rifle. “One more step and you’re dead.” Adrian glanced at the weapon. “If you intended to shoot me…” “…you would’ve done it already.” Grace narrowed her eyes. “Confident.” “No.” Adrian replied. “Practical.” Daniel stepped forward. “Who are you?” Adrian inclined his head. “I occupy the First Seat.” “The Board’s oldest member.” The room tensed. Sophia’s voice was barely above a whisper. “The First Seat…” “I thought the position was a myth.” Adrian smiled. “So did most people.” He slowly looked around the laboratory. His eyes lingered on the researchers. On the medical equipment. On

Chapter: Helix Summit The countdown glowed crimson across every monitor. 29:59 29:58 29:57 No one spoke. The weight of the moment settled over the Genesis Vault like a storm. Dr. Isabella Voss broke the silence. “The lockdown cannot be stopped from here.” Daniel looked at her. “Then where?” She enlarged the holographic map of the northern mountains. A massive structure appeared beneath the snow-covered peaks. Hidden beneath an abandoned astronomical observatory lay an underground complex stretching for miles. “This is Helix Summit.” “The Board built it after abandoning Black Hollow.” Ethan studied the layout. “Entrances?” “Three.” “The main gate.” “A maintenance tunnel.” “And an emergency elevator hidden inside the observatory.” Marco folded his arms. “They’ll expect us at all three.” “They’ll expect an attack.” Gabriel’s voice crackled through the speakers. “Then don’t give them one.” Everyone turned toward the monitor. Damien and Gabriel had reached one of Black Hollow’s armor

Chapter: Into The Mountains The image on the monitor froze. Forty armed operatives. One wounded man. Damien stood in the center of the ruined courtyard, refusing to retreat. Sophia reached toward the screen as though she could pull him back. “He’s still there…” Grace looked at Ethan. “We have to go back.” Ethan slowly shook his head. “If we do…” “…we’ll lose both battles.” Silence settled over the laboratory. No one wanted to admit he was right. Daniel clenched his fists. “So what do we do?” Dr. Isabella Voss enlarged the map on the central monitor. Three blinking locations appeared. BLACK HOLLOW SAINT RAPHAEL HOSPITAL And… A third point. Hidden deep within the northern mountains. She tapped the final location. “This is Helix Summit.” “The Circle’s true headquarters.” Marco frowned. “I thought Lucien was their leader.” “He was their chairman.” Isabella corrected. “The headquarters belong to the Board.” Elena looked confused. “The Board?” “There are seven seats.” “Lucien occupied

Chapter: The Genesis Vault The convoy raced through the rain. Sirens screamed from every direction. Ahead of them, thick black smoke rose above Saint Raphael Hospital, turning the morning sky into a dark haze. Marco gripped the steering wheel tighter. “We’re five minutes out.” Grace checked the satellite feed. “The fire started in the east wing.” Sophia shook her head. “The vault isn’t under the east wing.” “It’s beneath the original chapel.” Daniel frowned. “How do we get there?” Sophia closed her eyes, recalling a place she hadn’t seen in over two decades. “There should be a service tunnel behind the emergency ward.” “If it still exists.” Ethan, riding beside the convoy on his motorcycle, spoke through the radio. “It does.” “I found it years ago.” Everyone looked at him. “You’ve been here before?” Noah asked. Ethan nodded. “Three times.” “I never entered.” “Why not?” “Because the vault needs the Phoenix Key.” Elena instinctively looked toward the empty seat where Damien should have b

Chapter: The True Heir The silver envelope felt heavier than it looked. Rain dripped from Damien’s fingers as he stared at the elegant handwriting. FOR THE TRUE HEIR OF GENESIS Lucien smiled calmly. “Go on.” “Open it.” Damien didn’t move. “Why would I trust anything from you?” Lucien shrugged. “You shouldn’t.” “But your father would have.” Sophia’s face tightened. “Don’t.” She looked at Damien. “Whatever is inside…” “…be careful.” Damien slowly broke the seal. Inside was a single folded letter. And a small brass key. Not like the key Daniel carried. This one was older. Its handle bore the symbol of a phoenix rising from flames. Damien unfolded the letter. The handwriting was unmistakable. Gabriel De Luca. His biological father. His voice caught in his throat as he began reading aloud. If this letter has reached you… …then the Circle has fallen. Everyone listened in silence. If it has not… then you are reading this too early. Damien continued. Genesis was never meant to becom

Chapter: The Circle Without a Face The rain had finally begun to ease. Smoke drifted above the shattered estate. No one fired. No one moved. Lucien Ashcroft stood calmly, despite everything that had happened. The archives had been exposed. The survivors had escaped. His organization had been dragged into the light. Yet… He was smiling. Damien kept his pistol trained on him. “Why are you smiling?” Lucien’s answer came without hesitation. “Because you’ve finally discovered the truth.” “And you’re still too late.” Daniel frowned. “What truth?” Lucien looked around the courtyard. “You keep calling the Circle an organization.” “It isn’t.” Grace’s eyes narrowed. “We already know it’s a network.” “No.” Lucien corrected. “It’s an idea.” Silence. “You can arrest me.” “You can expose every document.” “You can burn every building we own.” He spread his arms. “But ideas don’t die.” Ethan stepped forward. “They do.” Lucien chuckled. “Then tell me…” He pointed toward the rescued children gathered
