A fake bride steals into the Underworld for her mother's treasure.
Hestia enters a contractual marriage with Hades, Lord of the Underworld, wearing her vicious sister's identity to reclaim a precious maternal relic. The union begins as a calculated heist, not a romance, planting her deep in the realm of the dead. Years earlier, she poured her heart into Ares, the God of War, only to suffer his relentless betrayals. Now that remorse finally drives the War God to her door, begging for forgiveness, she has already severed those ties. Hestia finds unexpected peace and a steady, quiet life flourishing beside her new husband.
