LOGINThey buried him as the boy who betrayed his own blood. They feared him as the monster who survived. For fifteen years, Arsen Dragunov has lived with one unforgivable truth— He believes he murdered his entire bloodline. The last Alpha disappeared into the human world and returned as the Dragon—the most feared mafia king in Asia. Cold. Untouchable. Merciless. He built an empire where loyalty is bought with blood... Because love has always cost him everything. Then a contract marriage places Kang Sera in his path—a mafia princess sacrificed once for peace... and now sacrificed to him. She was never meant to touch his heart. She was never meant to calm the beast. Yet the monster inside him bows to no one... Except her. For the first time in fifteen years, Arsen wants something more dangerous than revenge. He wants her. But the moment the Last Alpha chooses a human woman, the world begins to move. Ancient enemies emerge from the shadows. A rejected mate returns with a devastating truth. Centuries of lies begin to unravel. And Arsen realizes the greatest betrayal was never the night his family died... It was the lie he built his entire life upon. Now every kingdom wants the beast alive. Every enemy wants his blood. And every secret points to the woman sleeping beside him. Because loving her won't just start a war. It will force Arsen to choose between the destiny written for him... ...and the woman who chose the monster when everyone else turned away.
View MorePOV: Kang SeraThe impacts didn't stop after that first silence. They returned within minutes, harder this time, the walls of the eastern wing groaning under something Sera couldn't picture no matter how many times her mind tried to shape it.She stood at the mouth of the corridor, close enough to feel each impact travel faintly through the floor beneath her bare feet.Two guards stood posted outside the sealed door, rigid, pale, staring straight ahead like men who'd trained themselves not to react no matter what reached their ears. Furniture splintered somewhere beyond the steel. Something heavier struck the wall hard enough that dust sifted down from the ceiling.Neither guard moved."Aren't you going to do something," Sera said, her voice low, urgent."No, my lady.""Someone could be dying in there."The younger guard's jaw tightened, though his eyes stayed fixed forward. He said nothing.Viktor arrived a few minutes later, his broad frame filling the corridor, his expression carve
POV: Arsen DragunovArsen dismissed his captains two hours earlier than usual. He gave them nothing more than exhaustion from the summit as a reason.Most accepted it without question. A few exchanged glances, quick, careful, the kind that told him they suspected something closer to the truth.None of them asked.He was grateful for that particular mercy, though gratitude sat strange and heavy in his chest tonight, tangled up with everything else he couldn't say out loud.He walked the eastern wing alone afterward. The way he always did before a night like this one.Steel doors first. He checked each hinge, each bolt, running his hand along seams he'd inspected a hundred times before. Still checking, even now, as though this time might reveal something new. His fingers lingered a beat too long on the last bolt. Heavy locks next, the mechanism reinforced twice since he'd first had this wing built.Upgraded again after the last incident left a hairline crack in the frame, one that had t
POV: Kang SeraThe manor returned from the summit wrapped in silence.Not the ordinary kind. Something deliberate.The kind of quiet a house holds when everyone inside has agreed, without ever discussing it, not to speak of something at all.Nobody mentioned the ambush, Not the staff, the guards or Nikolai, who moved through his usual duties with a stiffness that suggested effort rather than calm, his jaw tight every time she passed him in the hall.Sera noticed the changes first in small things; She'd learned to notice everything in this house by now.Dinner arrived a full hour earlier than usual.The kitchen staff cleared plates and retreated before the sun had even fully set, their movements quick, clipped, eyes down. Guards she recognized from the main gate rotation began appearing near the eastern wing instead, familiar faces reassigned without a word of explanation.The third floor, usually busy with servants finishing evening tasks, emptied out entirely after dusk. Corridors th
POV: Kang SeraThe count came in slow, delivered in pieces by exhausted security teams still combing through the wreckage.Hundreds dead by morning, delegates and guards alike, entire family lines that had survived decades of underworld war reduced to names on a growing list nobody wanted to finish reading.The survivors gathered on the mountainside in loose, shell-shocked clusters, and it didn't take long before grief curdled into something sharper."He knew this building better than anyone," a northern captain said, loud enough to carry, his eyes fixed on Arsen across the clearing."Knew every exit, Moved through that chaos like he'd rehearsed it.""He saved half the men standing here," another voice cut back, sharp with exhaustion."Including yours.""Convenient, isn't it... The one man untouched by any of this walks away a hero.""Say that again," a third voice muttered,"and see how untouched you walk away."Sera felt her jaw tighten, the accusation landing somewhere close to fur
