The Slumbering Heir's Lethal Decoy

The rain at the Drosk patriarch's funeral is the perfect cover for a nap. While his parents fawn over his flawless, genius older brother Praxton, Kerym sleeps in the back pew - exhausted from years of having his kinetic marrow surgically drained to stabilize Praxton's failing body. When corporate mercenaries breach the chapel, Kerym effortlessly slaughters them with his eyes half-closed. Seeing a rare chance to escape his life as a biological blood-bag, Kerym swaps his ID tags with a charred corpse and vanishes into the slums. There is just one problem: the corpse was the estranged heir to Vorstag Ghol, the city’s most terrifying billionaire. Instead of killing Kerym for the identity swap, Vorstag offers a twisted deal: take his dead son's place, and never be bled again. Soon, Kerym is fiercely cherished by a ruthless new father and fighting back-to-back with Sennira, a lethal enforcer who captures his heart but remains bound by duty to a ghost. But when Praxton’s condition worsens, the desperate Drosks come begging the billionaire for his 'new son's' marrow. Vorstag prepares a devastating public humiliation to shatter their empire. Will the Drosk family survive the realization that the lazy son they discarded was the true monster all along?
