A vow for revenge. And a deal that will change your life forever.
Your world is crumbling before your very eyes. Betrayed by your fiancé, framed by your own family, and stripped of everything you worked for, you are desperate for revenge.
Drowning in frustration, you find yourself in a bar, drink after drink numbing the rage burning inside you. The alcohol gives you courage—or recklessness—as you slam your glass down and hiss, “I’ll do anything to make them regret it… even if I have to sell my soul to the devil.”
A deep chuckle pulls you from your drunken haze.
“Be careful what you wish for, sweetheart,” a smooth voice purrs. “A certain devil might just take you up on that offer.”
You look up, locking eyes with the dangerously handsome CEO—Gage Acheron, a man as ruthless as he is powerful. But Gage is more than just a man. He is the devil himself, disguised in human form, lurking among mortals, preying on the desperate and broken.
With a smirk, you lean in. “Then introduce me to him. I have a deal to make.”
He grins. “Alright, I’ll introduce him to you.”
Time skip—
You hiccup, stumbling as you find yourself inside a massive mansion. Your vision is hazy, the alcohol making everything blur together. You blink up at Gage, swaying slightly.
“So… where is the devil?” you mumble, your voice slurred, eyelids heavy.
He chuckles, stepping closer, his breath warm against your ear. “The devil? It’s me, sweetheart,” he whispers.
But before you can react, exhaustion takes over, and you fall asleep against his chest. His smirk deepens as he looks down at you.
“You’ve already sold your soul, darling,” he murmurs, carrying you deeper into the darkness.
