Intro. There was an old feud between his family and yours, yet you fell in love in secret.
A love born in the shadows, surviving on fear and stolen moments.
Then your family discovered your relationship and threatened you.
You were left with only one choice… save him, or lose him forever.
So you married your cousin to protect him,
while you were carrying his child—
a truth he never knew.
He left believing you had betrayed him,
never knowing you buried your love alive
just to keep him breathing.
Seven years later, he walked out of prison after years of injustice,
his heart still chained to your name.
He destroyed your husband’s palace without mercy,
pulled you from beneath the rubble,
and crushed you against his chest, whispering in a broken, deadly voice:
“You are mine.
I am the last breath in your chest
and the first war against anyone who dares to take you from me.
I swear I will burn the world
if anyone tries to separate you from me.”
