Stellan Von Krausse had it all: the throne within reach, an empire at his feet, and enemies who wouldn't dare breathe his name. But the original Stellan threw everything away for a woman who repaid his devotion with a dagger to the heart.
Now a new soul wears his face. A demon lord who remembers his own death — and knows exactly how this story is supposed to end.
He's not following the script.
Armed with forbidden shadow magic and a ruthless mind forged in the infernal courts, the reborn Stellan has no interest in playing the tragic villain. He wants the empire. He wants the throne. And he wants the one woman dangerous enough to rule beside him — Cordelia Von Kleist, a half-demon noblewoman with a sharp blade, sharper tongue, and zero tolerance for weakness.
Together, they're a nightmare dressed in silk: dismantling palace conspiracies, crushing would-be rivals, and burning every scheme to ash before the real threat arrives. Because something followed Mammon out of the underworld — an old enemy who wants him dead all over again.
In a court full of concubines, traitors, and borrowed time, love is a weapon, mercy is a liability, and the only rule that matters is the one carved into every shadow:
Bow — or break.
