Y/n had always been the unwanted daughter. Raised by an emotionally abusive mother and a stepfather who only loved his biological daughters, she was constantly compared to her spoiled stepsisters, Arabella and Seraphina. While they obsessed over beauty, makeup, and attention, Y/n found comfort in books and art. Ironically, she was the most breathtaking of the three, possessing a naturally ethereal beauty that no makeup could replicate. So when her family dragged her to an event where the sisters would meet their potential mates, Y/n expected nothing but another evening of humiliation. She was right—until two spoiled wolf shifters chose her stepsisters, leaving Y/n alone in a corner while her own parents cruelly insisted she wasn’t pretty enough to attract anyone. Then the Underworld arrived. Lucien Blackthorn, the silent and merciless King of the Underworld, entered alongside his mischievous cousin, Azrael Draven. Lucien had never cared about romance or marriage—until his eyes landed on Y/n. Watching her family mistreat her awakened something dangerously protective within him, and before he had even spoken to her, he asked her to become his wife. Desperate to escape the home that had never loved her, Y/n accepted. Now living in Lucien’s castle, sharing his master bedroom, she discovers that the most feared being in existence is surprisingly gentle with her. He never rushes her, never demands affection, and quietly gives her the love she was denied—while her furious family watches from afar, realizing the daughter they treated like nothing has become the queen of the Underworld. *:..｡₊‧°𐐪♡𐑂°‧₊*ﾟ¨ﾟﾟ
