Bound By The Living Yama
Ethan Vale was the golden heir to a fortune, a boy who had everything until his own blood turned against him. Framed for the brutal murder of his parents by his uncle and brother, Ethan was cast into the depths of Metropolis Prison to rot. Beaten, starved, and forgotten, he waited for a death that wouldn't come.
Then, the shadows parted.
Enter Damien Blackwood. Known in the underworld and the boardroom as the "Living Yama," Damien is a billionaire whose mercy is non-existent and whose power is absolute. He walks into Ethan’s cell with a contract that defies logic:
"Marry me, and I will give you the heads of those who destroyed you."
Ethan isn't gay, and he doesn't trust the monster standing before him. But with a death sentence hanging over his head and a burning thirst for revenge, he signs his soul away.
What starts as a cold, business transaction between a broken prisoner and a heartless tyrant soon spirals into something far more dangerous. As Ethan is transformed from a "prison rat" into the pampered, untouchable spouse of the Living Yama, the lines between hatred and obsession begin to blur.
Damien promised to help Ethan destroy the Hales, but Ethan is beginning to realize that the most dangerous place in the world isn't a prison cell it’s in the arms of the man who owns him.

Chapter: Causing ChaosAnastasia's face turned pale with fear when she saw the police officers waiting for her. Trembling, she hid behind her father. "Daddy, please don't let them take me!" she begged.Dimitri’s fatherly instincts kicked in immediately. He yelled at Damien, "You are not taking my daughter anywhere, you psychopath! What did she ever do to you?"Damien looked bored and shook his head in frustration. "Are you really that slow? Can't you figure it out?"When Dimitri still looked confused, Damien sighed. "Fine, I'll tell you..."Before he could continue, a woman's voice suddenly interrupted him."Wait! I know why you want to arrest her."Damien turned toward the voice and raised an eyebrow at the blonde woman. He had noticed her earlier, He remembered that she had been the only one openly speaking against Anastasia from the very beginning. Whoever this woman was, it was obvious she hated Anastasia. Damien didn't care in the slightest. If her hatred helped him achieve his goal, then he had no rea

Chapter: Who Called The PoliceDamien continued, "As I was saying, a video surfaced of me and a certain man kissing."Silence instantly descended over the guests. Uneasy murmurs rippled through the crowd before dying just as quickly as it started.Of course, they had all seen the video, but who would be bold enough to admit it or mention it to Damien's face? No one dared.Damien knew that.A dark chuckle escaped his lips as his gaze swept across the silent crowd."What's wrong?" he asked mockingly. "Don't pretend for my sake. I know every single one of you had one thing or another to say about that video. But now that I'm standing right in front of you, you've all suddenly lost your voices?"His voice boomed through the hall, causing the guests in the front row to flinch.Dimitri's patience had long since run out. Damien had already insulted both him and Anastasia. Once upon a time, Dimitri had admired Damien and even dreamed of having him as a son-in-law, but that admiration had completely vanished. At this point,

Chapter: PaybackKristen's eyes widened as he realized what video was playing. "Wait, isn't that...?"Ethan moved closer so he could see clearly. He wasn't mistaken; the decorations in the mansion gave it away. He remembered choosing that exact decoration in the video with Anna for his graduation party. "The Manor... this was the night I hooked up with Damien."Kristen gasped. "Damn! Does that mean Anastasia was the one who posted the video?"He couldn't believe it, but all the signs were there, especially her crazy obsession with Damien. Still, he couldn't figure out her logic. What was she trying to achieve by posting it? Wouldn't that just let everyone know Damien and Ethan were together?Ethan's expression remained unreadable. "No, let's not jump to conclusions yet. The video is still playing."Kristen looked at Ethan as if he wanted to slap some sense into him. "Are you serious right now? We have all the evidence we need! She did it."Ethan ignored Kristen's outburst, keeping his eyes glued to th

Chapter: Please Damien, You'll Destroy MeTae frowned. He didn't like the way Harold was speaking to him, but Harold was too blinded by anger to notice."We agreed that day that you would approve their engagement. So what's all this nonsense Damien is caus..."Tae turned to him, his expression stern as he spoke in a low, commanding voice."Watch it."Harold froze the moment he realized Tae was genuinely annoyed. It dawned on him that he had overstepped his boundaries."I'm sorry, Senior Commander. The words just slipped out."Tae raised a hand, signaling him to stop."It's alright. You have every right to be angry," he said, lifting his gaze to Damien on the stage. "He's my grandson, and he'll listen to whatever I say."Harold let out a sigh of relief after hearing those words. It meant everything was still salvageable. Damien simply needed to be set straight by his grandfather.The crowd immediately parted to make way for Tae as he approached from the back of the hall. He stopped below the stage, where Damien could clearly s

Chapter: I Told You Ethan, He Didn't KnowEveryone was stunned by the sudden turn of events. Dimitri and Harold had already grown anxious after Damien's shocking announcement. Desperate to stop him from saying anything further, Harold forced a laugh and said, "What are you talking about, Damien? Isn't it a little too early for jokes?"Although he wore a smile, his entire body trembled with panic. He had spent the evening proudly boasting that he would soon become the Blackwood family's in-law. If Damien publicly declared that he had never consented to the marriage, Harold's reputation would be completely destroyed in front of all the distinguished guests.Meanwhile, Anastasia's heart pounded violently in her chest. She could feel the atmosphere around her shifting. Moments ago, the guests had looked at her with admiration and envy. Now, those same gazes were filled with ridicule and mockery, making her feel as though she were being laughed at from every corner of the ballroom.Unable to bear the mounting humiliation, she slow

Chapter: Are They Trying To Force Him ?Tae's grin widened as he feigned innocence."What do you mean, child?" he asked with a chuckle. "I'm the clueless one here."His gaze shifted away from Damien and landed on Anastasia. A warm smile spread across his face."And who is this lovely young lady standing beside my grandson?" he asked. "Are you his girlfriend?"Anastasia hesitated. Shyness crept into her expression as she glanced at Damien. She had no idea how to define their relationship, but she certainly couldn't tell his grandfather that.With a timid smile, she replied, "I'm his girlfriend."Tae's eyebrows shot up in pleasant surprise."A girlfriend?" he repeated. "Well done, boy. You have excellent taste. She's absolutely beautiful."He gave Damien a friendly pat on the shoulder before gesturing for them to follow him."Now, now," he said cheerfully. "Let's go meet her parents. You can't take someone's daughter without asking for her parents' permission, can you?"His smile never faltered.Damien, however, didn't return
