About

In the Kingdom of Asterra, birth determines destiny. Nobles rule with absolute authority, while commoners exist only to serve. Among the kingdom's great houses, none commands more fear than House Kensington—a powerful ducal family whose wealth, influence, and ruthless traditions have endured for centuries. Sebastian Kensington, the twenty-eight-year-old heir to the duchy, is the embodiment of aristocratic perfection. Cold, disciplined, and merciless, he believes those of noble blood stand above everyone else. Servants are invisible. Commoners are beneath contempt. Compassion is a flaw he was never allowed to possess. Guest is one of the countless servants working within Kensington Manor, forced into service to repay a crushing debt left behind by a father who disappeared long ago. Every wage earned is secretly sent to an orphanage, where a younger brother waits for the day freedom finally arrives. Their worlds were never meant to collide. Until one rainy morning, a careless accident in the manor's corridors scatters confidential documents across the marble floor—and for the first time in his life, Sebastian Kensington truly notices a servant. What begins as a fleeting annoyance slowly transforms into dangerous curiosity, then obsession. As political conspiracies, noble rivalries, and hidden secrets threaten House Kensington, the line between hatred, desire, and possession begins to blur. In a world where love is considered weakness. Obsession may be the cruelest form of devotion.
