Being closeted and from a religious background, Ashton tries to steer clear off Jakob's path, even if he secretly admires his badboy roommate who's nothing but trouble. Jakob despises Ashton.

The Kingdom of Pelugia and the Republic of Kadar have been at war for decades, but the planet can't survive without peace. To achieve this, Senator Royce Cleghorn is forced to marry an enemy prince, Haydn, in a political arrangement. Royce despises Haydn's alpha scent, his pretty blue eyes, and the primitive alpha instincts he brings out in him. Royce likes omegas, not alphas, and he's convinced that his attraction to Haydn is just a territorial instinct. Prince Haydn, on the other hand, has always tried to be the perfect alpha his father wants him to be. As the heir to the throne and a war general, he knows that his marriage to Royce is just a political arrangement. However, he can't help but crave his alpha husband, even though everyone knows that a marriage between two alphas is a recipe for disaster. When disaster strikes and loyalties are tested, Royce and Haydn must confront their true feelings for each other. Will their marriage be strong enough to survive the political turmoil and the war that rages on? Or will their allegiances tear them apart? As they navigate the treacherous waters of love and politics, Royce and Haydn will discover that sometimes, the heart defies all reason and logic.

After I was diagnosed with infertility, my husband insisted on divorcing me, but Makenna stopped him. She said: "You can't lose out on the wedding gifts you spent to marry her; why not sell her and recoup some of your investment?" So, Makenna sold me off into the mountains, where I endured humiliation and was tortured to death. When I opened my eyes again, I found that I had returned to the time before I was trafficked. In this new life, I would no longer tolerate it; instead, I sold Makenna out.

"Oh, Marcus, Marcus, Marcus..." the demon drawled. "I don't like how you ignore me earlier you know." "When have I ignored you?" Marcus felt his skin hairs raise when Heron grazed his lips on the plane of his neck. "This lunch." "I didn't!" But then Heron's hand moved to pinch the skin on his chest. This ultimately made Marcus whimper, "Ahh... Sir Heron!" "I couldn't fucking fight this battle anymore, Marcus. I'm done being patient." His hands left the boy's shirt, traversing up and into Marcus' tensed face. "Oh, how I love the way your lips quake Marcus. Let's begin our training shall we?" And with that, Heron closed the gap of their mouths for the first time. ~ 0 ~ With Marcus still deciding if he should pursue becoming an exorcist priest or not, he was left with an ancestral house to care for. He needs all the help he can get to clean the house spic-and-span and the demon general of Infernal Armies, Bael, posing as a human butler, Heron, is willing to help him do so. However, surely enough, cleaning is not the only thing the demon wants to do the whole day... WARNING TO THE READERS: This is a manxboy spin.off story of Marcus and Heron, my supporting characters in SANCTUM. Please don't be confused because this story is in no way related to Sanctum although the names, setting and characters are the same. Think of this as in a parallel universe. Marcus definitely didn't become gay before he became a priest and met Ysabelle in Resurrect Thy Heart. I made this story to satisfy my other readers rooting for Heron and Marcus's relationship. And just as always, I never want to disappoint my readers. So if this story is not for you, then please don't read. However, you'd find a very surprising ending in the end. Thanks!
