Ghost, Shadow, and Blade-each one darker than the last. I didn't ask for their obsession. I didn't invite their attention. But the moment I disobeyed Rule #1, I became theirs.

Though the broadcast was in French, the words at the bottom were crystal clear in english. It has been reported that a theft has occurred at the residence of the Spanish billionaire Zarves family. The suspect entered the mansion under the pretense of being a maid before stealing the items and fleeing. She has been on the run for two days now. Her fingers clenched around the edge of her pants. That lying, scheming, smug son of a- The broadcast continued. The suspect, identified as 27-year-old Arielle Frost, was last spotted near Paris. A reward of 10 million dollars is being offered for any credible information leading to her capture. Ten. Million. Dollars. Her jaw dropped. He did not just plaster her identity across Europe, slap a bounty on her head, and turn the entire damn world into his personal hunting dogs. She scoffed. Oh. Oh, she was going to kill him. Forget running. Forget escaping. She was going to track down Alexios Zervas, strangle him with his own expensive silk tie, and watch the life drain from his smug, infuriating face. But first she needs to get out of this place. ********************************************************* Arielle's Greek vacation was supposed to be a break from her chaotic life, not a hot fling with a mysterious stranger. Enter Alexios Zervas: charming, irresistible, and-surprise-completely unwilling to share any details about himself. They keep it light, no strings, no names. But after a steamy night together, Arielle stumbles upon a cryptic clue that sends her curiosity-and fear-into overdrive. When she overhears a conversation , her paranoia spikes. Fearing for her safety and desperate to sever any ties, she slips away without a word. What she doesn't know? Alexios is already hunting her, and the game is just beginning. All right's reserved.

Waking up in the middle of that, she nearly screamed-until she saw him. Her cold, obsessive husband. The man she had spent an entire lifetime running from. In her past life, she trusted the wrong people. She abandoned the man who truly loved her and ended up betrayed, ruined, and dead. This time? Ha! Divorce? Dream on. Since fate gave her another chance, she'd play the game her way. Stay mysterious, act sweet, and turn every schemer against each other. And as for the dangerously obsessed husband? Let's see who traps who first!

𝘚𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘺. The woman of impeccable beauty was the infinite definition of her name. Calm and poise. Born into a violent life of guns and knives, you would assume a Mafia Princess like her would be training and preparing to be the next heir... But that wasn't the case for Serenity. On the other hand, she preferred to remain out of it. Therefore, Serenity's name was recognised throughout the world simply as only Serenity, the Mafia Princess who avoided the violent life of crime, instead, spent most of her time with Butterscotch, her ginger cat. Leading up to her second year of college, she sets goals to do nothing but study, try to party a little more, and not get attached to any boys.
