I Held the Tyrant's Heart

Yuseniel Hardrant was banished from the capital after being accused of negatively influencing her childhood friend, the Crown Prince. Fourteen years later, their reunion reveals a man transformed—his golden hair turned black and his blue eyes darkened into a languid, dangerous gaze. Tess greets her with a gentle, alluring smile, claiming he remade his appearance entirely to match her preferences. As he cups her cheek and calls her "my Yuseniel," she realizes the boy she once knew has become a tyrant who has literally reshaped himself just for her.
