Reborn as the Queen's Captive: The Shadow Courtier System

Death was supposed to be the end. Instead Silas awoke in a world of perpetual twilight chained to a bed of silk and iron.

He had been a ruthless corporate strategist in his past life. Now he is nothing more than a captive. He is a mere plaything for Queen Ravena the beautiful and terrifying ruler of the Sunless Throne. In a court where consorts are discarded poisoned or executed the moment they bore the Queen survival seems impossible.

But Silas did not come to this dark world empty handed.

Awakening the Shadow Courtier System Silas gains the tools to navigate a deadly game of court politics. With skills that allow him to mask his emotions read the malicious auras of his rivals and manipulate the minds of those around him Silas begins his silent ascent.

He will not remain a slave. He will not be just another broken toy.

Through calculated deception psychological warfare and a dangerous dance of seduction with the Queen herself Silas will rise from being Her Majesty's plaything to becoming the shadow that rules the empire.

In the Sunless Throne trust is a myth and power is the only currency. And Silas intends to bankrupt them all.
