Claimed by Ryder Kane — the ruthless heir and future Sovereign of The Veil — she is collared, married, and forced into a world of dark possession, strict training, and dangerous desires.

In a world where submission is survival and love is the ultimate weakness, one question Will Ryder burn his empire down to keep her… or will he sacrifice her to keep his crown?
