Raella had one simple goal for the night: a carefree escape at Vincenzo Marinelli’s lavish party. Disguised as Carmela, she planned to let loose, nothing more. But when her dress tore and she collided with the towering, dangerous Vincenzo, her night took an unexpected turn. He didn’t just catch her—he proposed.
"Marriage," he said, "for protection."
What started as a simple, calculated agreement soon spiraled into a dangerous dance. Vincenzo’s cold curiosity quickly morphed into obsession, and the secrets Raella buried deep began to claw their way to the surface.
Vincenzo had his demons, Raella had hers, and neither of them could escape the past. Could they defy the ghosts chasing them, or would their twisted histories leave only ruin in their wake?

Her cousin was convinced that a blind date would finally end her single streak.
Spoiler? It blew up in her face—spectacularly.
Charming, normal, and good-looking? Apparently, that was code for walking red flag. Dorian Delacroix wasn’t just trouble; he was the whole bad-boy danger package—magnetic, secretive, and undeniably lethal. Sure, sparks flew, but there was no easy escape from this mess.
Being under the "protection" of a dangerously gorgeous Special Activities Division leader might have sounded thrilling, but in reality? It meant trading freedom for paranoia, a luxury prison for a home, and a constant threat looming in the shadows. Because the Shinomiya cartel wasn’t just after Dorian—they were after something worse.
And if Vivian was right, their real target might just be the baby she was carrying.
