As Winter navigates the complexities of royal politics and supernatural threats, she uncovers dark secrets that changed her life forever. Extract..... Winter's thoughts swirled as she descended into the castle's grand hall. Her father, the king, stood beside a tall, dark-haired figure. The vampire prince. "Ah, Winter, my dear, this is Prince Ryker," her father announced, his voice booming. She felt her heart stop beating as she stared at this handsome creature; he was very pale but different from how books described them to be; she felt Emma stiffen with widened eyes; "I am dying, princess."

In the labyrinthine world of high finance, power, and hidden agendas, Jiang Ting, the enigmatic and ruthless president of Ying Group, shocks everyone by settling a staggering 30-million-dollar debt for a low-level trading analyst, Astra. What could drive a man of his stature to such an irrational act? The answer lies in Astra's carefully concealed secret — her ability to cast spells and foresee the future. Yet Astra is a woman of conviction, refusing to use her mystical talents to chase wealth. Unmoved by her defiance, Jiang Ting exerts his dominance, weaving a web of pressure, coercion, and calculated manipulation. But as sparks of defiance and dominance clash, an unexpected and forbidden emotion ignites between them, drawing them ever closer to a line neither thought they'd cross. Under the weight of Jiang Ting’s relentless demands and their volatile relationship, Astra finally breaks her vow and uses her spells to fuel Jiang Ting's ambitions, turning his already formidable empire into a financial juggernaut. But the universe does not grant power without cost. The karmic consequences of using magic for profit begin to darken their path, each success shadowed by an invisible debt they cannot repay. As they navigate a world of cutthroat real estate deals, volatile stock trades, and risky foreign exchange maneuvers, they are pursued not only by external rivals but also by the unseen forces that seek to reclaim balance. Amidst these dangers, Astra begins to unravel Jiang Ting’s true motivations — secrets that could shatter everything they have built and redefine the very nature of their bond. Together, they walk a tightrope over a chasm of power, destiny, and fate. The question remains: when the final reckoning comes, will their alliance be their salvation — or their ultimate destruction?
