In a world ruled by loyalty and betrayal, vengeance becomes a double-edged sword. Chiara Élise Santoro has spent her entire life planning the destruction of the Italian mafia: The Romano family, the organization she blames for her father's banishment and her family's ruin. Disguised as Léa Sofia Dupont, a mysterious french socialite in the underworld, she infiltrates their ranks with one target in mind: Viero Matteo Romano, the enigmatic leader whose empire she's sworn to destroy. What she doesn't know is that Viero isn't the villain she believes him to be--and that her past is more intertwined with his than she could ever imagine. Viero Romano carries the weight of a crown he never asked for, ruling with honor to protect those who pledged their lives to him. Haunted by memories of a childhood friend he lost, he's spent years searching for a ghost while navigating the dangerous waters of mafia politics. When Léa enters his life, her sharp wit and quiet strength feel achingly familiar, stirring feelings he can't explain. As Chiara and Viero are drawn closer by fate and tangled in a web of lies, the truth threatens to shatter them both. With enemies circling and trust crumbling, will they rise from the ashes together or burn in the fire of their choices? Some battles are fought with bullets. Others are waged in the heart. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- New Chapter drops every Sunday @ 9pm IST!!
