I was born a girl — and immediately erased.
Raised as a boy, obedient to the last breath, I played the role they wrote for me.
Until the day they decided I was no longer useful.
I died with a cursed pendant around my neck and hatred in my heart.
That hatred broke the seal — and with it, every lock the pendant had spent generations holding shut. The gifts of women in my bloodline. Buried. Chained. Gone.
Until they weren't.
I woke up with it all.

To stay out of my parents' reach — already hunting me down to finish what they started — I enrolled in a boarding school. I didn't expect four roommates.
All insufferably, infuriatingly popular.
The overachiever — brilliant, laser-focused, and allergic to anything that isn't a textbook.
The quarterback — cocky, hot-headed, and a man who has never heard the word no and clearly doesn't plan to start.
The golden boy — all sunshine and smiles, a culinary genius who somehow also writes code that makes engineers cry.
The artist — quiet, intense, and disturbingly devoted in ways that feel less like admiration and more like obsession.
One by one, something shifts. The way they look at me. The way they linger.
I don't have time for this. I have powers to master, a past to bury, and a future to claw back.

Oh, and one more thing.
I have a fiancée.

I wish someone had taught me you can’t make your happiness all about loving one person, because what happens when you lose them? What happens to what’s left of you after they’ve taken half of you?

My name is Elysian Reign, and unlike my last name, I’m not extraordinary. My mother died when I was born, and my father drank himself to death. I graduated with a Mathematics degree of which I hardly use as a junior Network Security Engineer. I live in a one-bedroom apartment around the corner of my favorite gym, and I have a Saint Bernard named Bubbles—unextraordinarily so.

His name is Cade Sinclair, and unlike me, he is extraordinary. His mother was one of my professors before she passed, and his father is the owner of Sinclair Enterprises. Yes, as in Sinclair Enterprises: the largest firearm manufacturer for the Armed Forces.

I should’ve known better. But you never imagine that the love of your life’s own father would go through lengths to make sure his son doesn’t end up with someone like you—even if it means forcing him into an experimental military hypnosis treatment.

After three years of putting myself back together, you’d think I’d have learned my lesson. You’d think that I would’ve double checked before accepting a job for a company his father happens to own. You’d think that I would’ve changed my identity and left the country after walking in on my first day to find that Cade is the lead Network Engineer on my team—aka, my boss.

Now, how am I supposed to work with him when he’s made it his mission to make my life a living hell? How am I supposed to make him—at the very least—tolerate me when he’s been hypnotized to hate me?

When Dorian Falco’s stepsister and secret lover was found brutally violated in a slum alleyway, the Mafia Don lost his fucking mind.
And he blamed me.
He dragged me into the manor's dungeon, throwing me to a dozen of his most depraved enforcers.
"Whatever Camilla suffered, you'll pay back a thousand times over."
I collapsed on the freezing floor, sobbing as I desperately clutched his pant leg. "I love you! I would never hurt her! Please, Dorian, believe me!"
Dorian only offered his cruelest sneer.
"Jealous that she gets the real thing? Fine. I'll make you filthier than she ever was."
He locked me in that blood-stained cell for seven days and nights.
His thugs, given carte blanche by the Don, whipped me with chains and violated me without restraint. I screamed Dorian's name in the darkness until my throat shredded.
Seven days later, Dorian returned with a recovering Camilla.
He stood outside the heavy iron door, his voice dripping with mock generosity.
"Crawl out here, Saoirse. Get on your knees, kiss Camilla's shoes, and maybe—just maybe—I'll let you live."
Silence. No answer.
Because three days ago, I had already died in that cell.
