Prologue She was unconscious for four days. No one from her family came to see her. Her heart broke. She was in the hospital, yet no one cared enough to visit. Even after everything that had happened to her, she remained alone. As she walked slowly through the hospital corridor, her legs weak and her body aching, she saw them-her family. They stood there, talking in hushed voices. Relief and pain twisted inside her as she limped toward them. Then, without warning, a sharp slap struck her cheek. She stood frozen, numb not from the impact but from the words that followed. "Are you at peace finally? She has been raped because of you. Look at her condition, she is dying." A broken smile formed on her lips. Anyone could see her own ruined state-anyone but them. Once again, they had played their game. Once again, she was the one proven guilty.

(He thought he could cheat, lie, and escape. But karma doesn't forget. And this time, karma sleeps in his bed.) Ariana was supposed to be just another girl from a poor family- his mother's choice, his unwanted wife, and a woman he could ignore. That's what Leon thought. He had a girlfriend. A perfect life. A freedom he wasn't willing to give up. Until she played the game better than anyone. While he was busy trying to push her away, she was already ten steps ahead-rewriting her own story, twisting the rules, and turning his world upside down. But when he finally realizes that she's the only one who ever truly mattered... will she still want him? Because Ariana doesn't just take what she's given. She sees. She wants. She acts. She creates. And then-she steals. And this time, she might just steal his heart....

MATURE | 18+ Patralekha was the 'invisible' student. A-grade focused, quiet, and terrified of the man at the front of the lecture hall that always noticed her for the wrongs things.

He thought he was saving her. He was handing her to the wolves. Ten years ago, the eldest Sokolov brother made a desperate choice to protect his baby sister from the bloodbath of a mafia war. He paid her mother a fortune to take her far away and keep her safe, believing that a mother would do everything for their child. It was a secret he kept from his five brothers-a promise of protection that was supposed to be her salvation. But the money wasn't enough to buy a mother's love. Instead of safety, their sister was sold to the highest bidder-discarded into an abusive household where she spent a decade surviving a nightmare her brothers never knew existed. Now, ten years later, the truth has surfaced, and the girl they traded away has been found. She isn't the innocent child they remember. She is a hollowed-out survivor who looks at her brothers not as heroes, but as the men who paid for her disappearance. The Sokolov circle is finally whole again, but as the six brothers move to burn the world down for what was done to her, they must face the most brutal truth of all: The seventh scar was carved by their own hands.
