Twenty years ago, they ruined her mother's career and her family's reputation. Now, as Hale Enterprises is about to go out of business, she is forced into a marriage of convenience with the man she dislikes most: Luca Veridian.

He makes the deal for the marriage contract for one year for his own purposes: to get close enough to Aria to put her in jail. The rules are simple: Live together. Act as if you're in love. Don't show your true intentions. As they play a deadly game of cat and mouse in their shared penthouse apartment, the lines between protection and sabotage get blurred. Luca, the ruthless man, is hiding his own demons, and Aria, the ruthless woman, has a secret that might destroy both their empires. Yet, when a shadow from their past, the mysterious "Architect," comes back to finish what was started all those years ago, Aria and Luca learn that they are not the players in this game, but the pawns instead. Betrayed by blood, bound by contract, Aria and Luca must now choose whether to keep their secrets and die, or fall in love and burn the world down together.

Chapter 7

The penthouse became a tomb made of glass and steel.

The heavy door closed behind me and left us in complete silence that allowed me to even hear the pumping of blood within my body. I threw my flowers onto the table like they were toxic.

"Where’s my room?" I asked without turning to look at him.

“You’re standing in it,” Luca answered as he started stripping off his jacket and flinging it over a leather chair. He slowly started to undo his cufflinks as if he enjoyed torturing me.

I walked towards the master bedroom, opening the double doors and finding my breath catch in my chest. The entire room had only one king-sized bed and that was covered in charcoal silk. Moreover, my luggage was already lying there for me to see.

"There has been a misunderstanding. I've already mentioned that I want two separate bedrooms.”

"Then sleep on the floor. However, you will be sleeping in this room."

"That wasn’t part of the bargain, Luca!"

But now he moved, swift, fluid motion that had pinned me up against the edge of the bed. He did not physically touch me, but his very presence was enough to form a barrier between us. The air that surrounded us was tense and humming with a strange kind of energy.

"Bargain is what I decide, Arya," he growled and hovered above me, looming over me in a menacing shadow. His eyes scanned mine, looking for some sign of weakness.

"Get used to the scenery."

He straightened up and looked at the bed with raking eyes.

"We are sharing everything now wife.”

He was born from the void between stars - a being of immense power, forged from cosmic origins. For thousands of years, he walked among humanity, protecting them and keeping his true strength hidden. After losing the only family he had, grief led him to seek his own end... only to wake up in a world entirely unlike his own. Here, cultivation is the main path to power. Those who master spirit qi gain superhuman strength, speed, and abilities that place them far above ordinary people. Four great sects rule the land, competing for resources, secrets, and dominance over each other. Icaros joined the Li Sect, where he found companions he came to trust and care for: the capable and easygoing Li Han, the sharp and composed Su Yan, and the spirited Nelly. For a time, he felt he had found a place to belong, even as he kept his true nature hidden and wondered whether he could ever learn to cultivate like those around him. Everything changed when their voyage was suddenly attacked. A powerful figure floating in the sky cut their ship apart with sharp, devastating energy strikes, leaving only destruction in his wake.

He unleashed his full power: golden light blazed from his eyes, he flew at incredible speed, and he broke through every barrier and enemy in his way. On the shores ahead, he tore through hordes of powerful jade monsters, destroying them completely before flying deep into the interior of the island. Meanwhile, survivors washed up scattered and alone. One young cultivator found himself on the shores of Jade Island - a place most cultivators avoid, as it holds no treasures or useful materials, only danger and endless deposits of ordinary jade. Yet despite the risks, ordinary people have built settlements here, finding safety from the conflicts and power struggles of the outside world. This island works by different rules. Spirit qi is scarce and unstable, making cultivation far less effective than elsewhere. Instead, the people here rely on advanced technology - weapons and explosives that can injure or even defeat those with great physical strength. Here, skill and preparation can be just as powerful as raw strength, and even the strongest cultivators must move with caution. Now, Icaros has vanished deep into the island. His companions are lost somewhere across this dangerous land. And the mysterious swordsman who destroyed their ship has already arrived here, searching for an ancient map said to lead to the legacy of a being from another world. Will they find each other again?
