They called it peace.The Capital promised safety. Behind sterile glass and steel doors, girls were locked away in the Fertility Chambers-silent offerings for a future no one asked for. The Rebellion clawed itself from scorched earth and ash, dressing vengeance in the name of freedom.Ilarion Sokolov never questioned the system- only worked to perfect it. A torturer with a soldier's spine and a scholar's eye, cataloguing every rebel he broke. He never flinched. Never looked back. And he always succeeds. Izora Kapoor was raised by loss, carved by silence, she became a storm that refused to be tamed- no matter how much the world tried. She was carved into a weapon with scars no one dared to ask about. But monsters aren't born- they are raised in war. And when a torturer meets the girl who won't scream, the lines between loyalty and betrayal, threat and desire, begin to blur. Obsession takes root. And all it takes is a single crack... for everything to fall apart. A monster and his mirror. A man and a woman. And a world built on bodies and blood.
