Rose Katrina Chen. The Diamond. Kai Warner. The Genius. ... Rose: They say power travels in bloodlines, handed out before birth, but I was born to a world of wicked games with an entire empire at my feet. In the heart of a city entangled in corruption, I was labeled the diamond of New York's elite. A diamond so sharp it could cut you, so lethal it could kill you, and yet so desired. My friends were chosen for me and my enemies, already made. The worst of them? Kai Warner. A sinful genius. A devilish mastermind. The dangers of a man like Kai were well known in our world, but no matter how many times I escaped him, a cruel twist of irony led me right back to him. For Kai was the fate I couldn't run from and the reckoning of all my violent sins. Kai: There is no greater genius without some touch of madness... and I was as mad as they came. A wicked genius. A mastermind. Born to a family of wealth and strategy, my enemies were chosen for me. In the underworld of a city steeped in secrets and vendettas, I thrived on control and manipulation. I was used to getting my way, and no one ever dared to challenge me. Except her. As gorgeous as a diamond, as lethal as poison. Rose Chen. Wielding power at her fingertips, she could make anyone bend at her will but her heart chose mine in every single lifetime. Ours was a tempting game of cat and mouse where she was my prey and my prize. She was the fate I couldn't escape and the addiction I couldn't give up. For she was the salvation of all my violent sins.
