Two sons. One throne. A world torn apart by a single, rotten lie. Twenty years back, humans made the worst call in history—they turned their backs on Mother Earth. The Council of Governments promised a cure, but what they gave was horror. They turned innocent people into twisted, many-armed monsters and drove them into the Forbidden Forest like animals. In the chaos of a demonic uprising, two babies entered the world on the same day. Someone made a desperate switch. Lucian grew up under Lucifer’s shadow, trained for twenty years to be nothing but a weapon. He’s a man built for war, convinced he’s meant to inherit a throne drenched in darkness. But something’s always gnawed at him—a heartbreak he can’t name, a father who only sees him as a tool. Raphael spent his childhood tucked away in a human orphanage. Sickly, always hearing voices, always hurting in ways no one could see. But he's not alone in his own head. Four spirits live inside him, all fighting for space, each hungry and dangerous in their own way. Now the Council of Demons is back, hungry for souls, and these two—warrior and spirit-bearer—are on a crash course. One was made for war. The other was born from it. And when the truth behind those “test monkey” horrors finally comes out, they’ll see the real monster isn’t hiding in the woods. It’s been inside them all along.
