Summary
To straight-A student Aether, his final seminar thesis wasn't just a paper—it was the single thread keeping his academic scholarship alive and his family out of debt. But to the university's youngest, most devastatingly arrogant guest lecturer, Professor Scaramouche, it was nothing more than an opportunity to corner a prize.
When Aether is handed a brutal, unyielding 'F' in bleeding red ink, he stays behind after hours to beg for a rewrite. Instead, he finds the lecture hall doors locked, the deadbolt thrown, and a quiet, hyper-focused predator waiting for him in the dim fluorescent light. Scaramouche offers an alternative grading criteria: a practical extra-credit exam right there on the faculty desk.

Summary
The Golden Sun Kingdom fell in less than twelve hours, but inside the deep, freezing obsidian palace of Emperor Scaramouche, time stops entirely.
Striped of his crown, his ceremonial garments, and his dignity, Prince Aether is reduced to a trembling captive in translucent indigo silk—a trophy meant to appease a ruthless conqueror's long-buried envy. But when Scaramouche drags his prize onto the cold marble balcony to thoroughly claim him under the moonlight while the victory bonfires roar below, the physical defilement fractures into something far more dangerous.
A treaty signed in raw friction, tears, and blood. Because Scaramouche didn't tear down the city walls just to execute a lineage—he conquered a world just to build a cage for the sun. But when the dust settles in the velvet sheets of the canopy bed, the tyrant realizes the terrifying truth: he has locked the cage, but he is the one completely enslaved to the prisoner.
