To save her dying mother, human healer Isolda crossed into the dangerous Autumn Court, only to be trapped in a ruthless blood pact with the Fae King. King Rowan is brutal, terrifying, and deeply obsessed. To the court, Isolda is nothing but a fragile human pet, a captive forced to endure the King’s dark moods and fierce possessiveness. But behind closed doors, a dangerous fire is igniting between them—one filled with sharp edges, secret dawn training sessions with a silent guard, and a deadly court eager to see Isolda bleed. When a coup forces Isolda to unleash a terrifying, latent wildfire magic, the court learns the truth: she is no helpless captive. But the deadliest secrets aren't the ones hidden in the court. As Isolda uncovers Rowan's dark past, she realizes her entry into his world was no accident. The blood pact wasn't a punishment—it was a trap centuries in the making. Rowan didn't just capture her. He has been waiting for her to return to him for lifetimes... and this time, he will burn the entire realm to keep her. Can a mortal heart survive the consuming love of a feral king, or will the price of the petal be too high to pay?

I was Marcus’s little sister. I was the girl next door. I was the one thing they weren't allowed to touch. Then the pact shattered. Now, there are no more rules, no more gentlemen, and nowhere left to hide. Five men. One room. A lifetime of suppressed obsession unleashed all at once. They've decided to share what they were never supposed to have, and I'm about to find out exactly how alive it feels to be ruined.

Two masks. One scandalous contract. And a calculation that changes everything. Lady Clara Sterling is the Ton’s greatest disappointment: an earl's daughter who prefers microscopes to marriage marts and taxonomy to tea cozies. Facing an ultimatum from her father to accept a proposal from the terminally dull Lord Bromfield, Clara chooses a far more dangerous escape route. Enter Julian Vane, the Duke of Thorne. Known to London as the "Scourge of the Gaming Tables," Julian is a notorious rake drowning in debt and defying his family’s demands for a respectable heir. But behind the calculated defiance lies the mind of a brilliant polymath—a man who sees the world in equations and hidden structures. When a chance encounter on a moonlit terrace reveals their shared captivity, they strike a pragmatic bargain: a fake courtship. Clara gains the social shield she needs to pursue her scientific ambitions, while Julian acquires the veneer of respectability required to keep his creditors at bay. The rules are strict, the timeline is fixed at six months, and actual intimacy is strictly forbidden. But as the lines between their public performance and private truths begin to blur, their strategic alliance sparks an undeniable, electric tension. In a society built on delicate delusions, playing with fire might just burn down the cages they’ve spent their lives trying to escape.
