Duke And Duchess Romance

Born into shame and shadow, Rael Nightbane was the son of a slave girl—forced and discarded by the arrogant young master of the prestigious Nightbane Clan. Marked from birth as a stain on the clan’s honor, Rael endured a life of scorn and cruelty. On the sacred day of Talent Awakening, his humiliation was complete: the revered 12-ring column failed to shine even the faintest light for him. Power is everything in Rael’s world, and to be talentless is to be nothing. Branded as worthless, his existence became unbearable. But when his twisted stepbrothers conspired to end his life—casting him into a deadly river to be devoured by water beasts—fate intervened. At the river’s dark bottom, a mysterious black hole beckoned. As it tried to consume him, something ancient stirred within Rael’s bloodline. Instead of death, he found rebirth. The void awakened a power long buried in his veins. Dark matter surged into him, merging with his soul. From that abyss, Rael rose—no longer a powerless outcast, but a harbinger of vengeance, shrouded in shadows. His true inheritance had awakened, and it was darker—and more powerful—than anyone could have imagined. Now, as the Duke of Darkness, he returns not just to survive, but to dominate. Those who mocked him will beg for mercy. Those who hurt his mother will wish they’d never been born. And the Nightbane Clan? They will remember his name—for they are first in line to suffer his wrath.

Their positions were meant to keep them apart, but for Glenn, it was merely another reason to claim Ethien as his own.
