Marked by Shadows. Bound by Vows At Westwick Hall, the Monarchs aren’t just a secret society—they are the puppeteers of power. Cloaked in blood vows and bound by violence, they take what they want and destroy what they can’t control. Their prize? A chosen one they’ll consume whole. “BLOOD IN. BLOOD OUT. NO ESCAPE.” I was born into privilege, shackled by golden chains. My life was nothing but rules and expectations—until Kade Carrington crashed into it. A dark enigma with cruel hands and a devil’s smirk, he offered me a taste of freedom. But Kade doesn’t make promises. He makes deals. And in his world, every deal comes with a price. The Monarchs dragged me into their twisted game—a world of raw power, ruthless betrayal, and forbidden desire. I became their pawn, their plaything, their possession. But they underestimated me. Now, I’m not just fighting to survive. I’m fighting to win. The Monarchs want submission, but I’ve learned how to play dirty. And if this game ends in fire, I’ll be the one holding the match.
