A Kingdom as My Pledge

My name is Alaric Kane. I am a war orphan who clawed his life back from a heap of corpses. No one knows that the shivering little beggar under the overpass twenty years ago has now become the ruler of this towering imperial city. Until that day, on the overpass, I met a female fortune teller wearing sunglasses and pretending to be blind. Her name was Seraphine Voss. The moment I drew near, she pinched her fingers to calculate and tried to flee—but she stumbled and fell right into my arms. When she raised her head to look at me, I read every secret in those yin-yang eyes. She had seen my destiny chart, and she had seen her own inescapable fate. But some people are born to be entangled with each other.
