I'm the player, the gambler, the one without a heart or soul. There isn't a risk I won't take and a challenge I won't meet. Then she came into my world, melting the ice in my veins and showing me a life a man like me never deserved. But it was all a lie. She chose a safer, easier path, realizing too late, it was riddled with chains. Now she's trapped, needing an escape, and I'm the only one who can set her free. I'm not the hero from the storybooks, but the devil betrayed from birth. With the cards stacked in my favor, I will use any means necessary to take my empire and my queen...even if it means burning it all to ash.
