The villain wasn’t meant to be an emperor—nor was he supposed to be handsome. Yet, for reasons I can’t fathom, he hates me. Attending the Academy of the Arcane—a school for the supernatural elite to master their powers—I became a force to be reckoned with. Untouchable. Unstoppable. My beauty was a double-edged sword, both a weapon and a haunting reminder of the life I once had and lost. Among the murmurs and wary glances, one presence stood out like a shadow cutting through the light: Tharros, the Emperor of Shadows. The unchallenged ruler of witches, vampires, werewolves, and fae. His gaze, cold yet searing, carried a weight of hatred that felt deeply personal. "You made me this way," he said, his voice raw with fury, his face a mask of torment. His words hit like a dagger, yet I had no memory of him—no clue of what crime he accused me of. When I denied his accusations, his laughter lingered like a ghost. "You don’t remember?" he said. "Then I’ll make sure you never forget." Days later, I woke up bound to him by an unholy marriage—a union I never consented to, sealed by his thirst for vengeance. Tharros’ darkness is all-encompassing, threatening to swallow every fragment of who I am. Now, I must untangle the web of his hatred, uncover the truth behind my parents’ murder, and face the memories he swears I’ve buried. Because in this deadly game of vengeance and power, the line between hate and something far more dangerous grows thinner with every heartbeat.
