After years of chaos and war, Lia’s name rose in a world that had never expected someone like her. She had started as a little girl with nothing, slowly building influence in a merciless world step by step until her empire became a power feared by everyone. Yet behind her rise stood a man. A mysterious man who had entered her life during childhood, opening doors for her, teaching her how to survive, control people, and make the world bow before her without noticing. He never asked for anything in return, at least not in the beginning. Silently, he watched her grow. From the shadows, he removed everyone standing in her way and gave her the power needed to reach the top. Then, when Lia turned fifteen, he disappeared without warning, leaving her to finish the journey alone. For years, Lia believed she was finally free. She thought the man who had shaped half her life was gone forever. But when she finally came of age and stood as the complete ruler of her empire, he returned. Not as a mentor, but as a man who wanted her for himself. Max asked for her hand in marriage as though the answer had already been decided, as though every year spent shaping her had only prepared her for this moment. And on their first night together, inside a luxurious room carrying the sweet scent of candy, he whispered in the deep voice Lia had always loved: “My little girl… you still don’t realize how much you-belong to me. I watched you grow up in my hands year after-year, so never expect me to quietly watch another man stand beside you. You are mine, Lia, and that truth will never change, no matter how the world tries denying it forever.”

There was a river that ran through our village. According to the legend, a river god dwelled in its depths, and every month on the 15th, the village had to send a young woman to enter the water and serve him. At first, everything seemed normal. After their service to the river god, the women would return to shore, go home, and eventually marry and start families. But this year, the peace was shattered.

The evidence of the violation was horrific. This month, I was selected. I had been chosen to marry the river god.

Mother used my life to threaten the system and force Father to return for a second time. But this time, Father was different. He no longer cared that Mother favored her childhood sweetheart, Adrian Voss. He did not even react when Undersecretary Adrian pretended to be frail and provoked him in front of her. When Mother begged for forgiveness, Father only calmly rolled up his sleeve and pressed a dagger to the scarred skin of his wrist. "Tell me. How much blood do you need this time?" Mother's face tightened with pain. Her eyes went red. "Gideon, must you embarrass me like this? Can't our family be harmonious like before?" Father's gaze moved from Mother to Adrian, but he said nothing. His silence told her exactly who had caused his disappointment and pain again and again. Sure enough, Mother stiffened, then spoke in anger to hide her shame. "Adrian has only been in court for two years. Just because you failed the civil-service exams, are you so jealous that you'd watch him die?" "Gideon, he was my uncle's finest student. I can't stand by and let him die." "Don't worry. Once Adrian recovers, I won't make you bleed into his medicine again. After all, the person I love most is you." As soon as she said it, I crawled out from the corner and threw myself in front of Father. I wanted to beg him not to believe her. I wanted him to leave quickly, before Mother and Adrian could hurt him again. But Father tightened his hand around mine and smiled gently. "Don't be afraid, Eli. This time, I came back to take you home with me."

There's a saying that circulates among anglers: "If a dead fish still takes the bait… reel in and leave." The day I went fishing with my dad, we ran into exactly that.

Now. Your dad is about to trade your life for the one who died in this river a year ago.]
