This book doesn't primarily focus on the events of Death Note. When mafia leader Mello is ordered by Rod Ross to steal an encrypted USB drive to secure his place in the organization, his confidence is unshakable. Victory feels inevitable - until he crosses paths with Y/N, a phantom thief from his past. Both set on claiming the same prize, their rivalry erupting into a dangerous clash. But with crushing debts weighing her down, Y/N is forced into an uneasy alliance, working under the egocentric, cold-hearted prodigy. The tension between them ignites like wildfire, yet Mello's true fixation isn't just the mission - it's breaking her composure, as if he couldn't decide whether to claim her or destroy her. TW: swearing, gore

(Y/N) is a cold-blooded assassin known only by the pseudonym 'Burgundy'. When the Japanese NPA offers her a deal - track down the elusive killer known as Kira in exchange for her freedom - she takes the job without hesitation. But her mission takes an unexpected turn when a brilliant, volatile mafia leader named Mello steps into her path. (Y/N) soon discovers that beneath his cocky, short-tempered facade lies a broken soul - a boy far more drawn to her than he dares to admit. Will she be able to save him from his demons before it's too late? Not your typical Mello fan fic so beware. TW: mention of depression, suicidal thoughts, swearing, abuse, sexual content
