His Dark Queen

Elena, a fierce rebel leader, expected torture and death at the hands of the notorious Dark Lord Malakai. Instead, she finds herself confined to his ancient, shadowed fortress, confronted by a ruler profoundly bored with his vast dominion. Malakai, with eyes like frozen iron, sees just another firebrand. But Elena's unwavering defiance and sharp intellect begin to chip away at his millennia of apathy.

As Malakai subtly reveals the brutal truth of Elena’s 'benevolent' King—a tyrant far more corrupt than any legend of darkness—her idealism shatters. Betrayed by the very light she fought for, Elena makes a chilling choice. She approaches the indifferent Dark Lord not with pleas for mercy, but with a seductive, dangerous offer: a partnership in vengeance, an unleashing of his long-dormant wrath.

She wasn't meant to save him. She was meant to make him worse.

Their forced proximity ignites a terrifying chemistry, forging an unholy bond of shared purpose and absolute power. Elena becomes Malakai’s darkest confidante, his unapologetic corruptor, guiding his resurrected legions as they dismantle the corrupt realm. She executes the 'good' King herself, her blade merciless. Now, standing as his Dark Queen, Malakai views her with a complex blend of searing passion, unwavering devotion, and a profound, exhilarating awe—laced with a genuine, shiver-inducing fear. Because for her, he would indeed burn the world. And she would help him rebuild it, in their own terrifying image.
