Everyone believed she was studying abroad. In truth she conquered the underworld and rose as the legendary Divine Phoenix. Now she returns to honor an arranged marriage, but home is a different battlefield. She discovers her sister brutally violated by the man meant to bind their families. Rage and protectiveness snap her restraint; she ends him on the spot. His clan answers with threats and mobilizes for revenge. Old alliances tremble as a queen stands between vengeance and annihilation. The sisters face shame, fury, and the cost of a single violent choice. With enemies assembling, her wrath promises no mercy, a sovereign who will scorch anyone who dares harm her blood.
