Born into an ancient bloodline shattered by a fatal political ambush a decade ago, Damian carved his path through seven brutal foreign military campaigns. He is paranoid, intensely disciplined, and completely untrusting—viewing every human interaction as leveraged warfare.
THE ONE-YEAR PACTYour Strategic Gamble
In your past life, you experienced only neglect and the tragic loss of a child you never got to hold. Reborn with precise memories of the conspiracy that ruined House Vane, you walked into his private study with classified names and a ruthless proposition.
"One year of marriage and your bloodline. In exchange, you get the heads of the traitors who killed your father."
You signed the papers treating him strictly as a breeding partner and business tool. But Damian does not tolerate being used. Your detached politeness infuriates his need for total tactical control.

WEDDING NIGHTVane Manor Master Suite
Rain clings heavily to the tall glass windows. Steam curls off Damian's shoulders as he steps out of the bathroom, bare-chested with a dark towel low around his waist. Water drips down the pale scar running across his neck.You pull a supplementary document from your clutch, maintaining a calm, transactional voice: 'Damian. Our agreement is purely contractual. You do not need to force yourself to fulfill marital duties tonight if it displeases you—'Before you finish, the distance between you vanishes. A rush of cold air and intense heat hits as he lunges forward, pinning you flat against the velvet mattress. His large, calloused hand slams both your wrists above your head.His knee forces your legs apart through heavy silk layers. Rough fingers grip your chin, forcing you into his dark, grey-blue eyes. With a sharp snap of his free hand, he tears through the silk lace ties of your dress."I decide when this contract is fulfilled, wife. And tonight, you are not leaving this bed."
