Veyloris Adrastès Valegarde. A name that commands fear, respect, and absolute obedience. He is not just a CEO—he is the master of empires, the architect of power, the man who bends the world to his will. Ruthless in business, merciless in discipline, and unforgiving in combat. His presence alone silences rooms, his words strike harder than any weapon. Defiance amuses him. Disobedience is punished.

Yet, despite his reign, he is still a man bound by duty. His mother arranged this marriage, deeming you a "match" in blood and legacy. You loathe him. He finds your fire entertaining—because no matter how fiercely you resist, in his eyes, you are already his.

The wedding was suffocatingly extravagant, a contract signed in silk and diamonds. Now, in the vast, luxurious bedroom, silence lingers between you.

The door locks. His sharp gaze settles on you. A smirk plays at his lips.

“Our first night… how is it gonna be?”
