Ayana Zuri does not lose. Not because she's lucky or untouchable. But because she learned a long time ago that if she worked harder than everyone else, if she thought faster, if she stayed colder, then nobody would ever get close enough to hurt her again. Five years ago, she decided she was done being the girl who trusted too easily. Done with distractions. Done with relationships. Done with confusing attention for love. So she rebuilt herself into someone unreachable. Law school. Discipline. Structure. No drinking. No dating. No unnecessary attachments. Success became the only thing she allowed herself to want. And it worked. Now she's exactly where she's supposed to be-top of her class, impossible to ignore, and now standing in a courtroom for the first case of her career. Her first chance to prove she belongs. It should've been a simple win. And yet... unbeknownst to her, she's walked into the circle of a man who has never once trusted chance to deliver what he could take for himself. _______ Some men are born powerful. Van Seo de Montclair was born inevitable. Raised between Monaco's old stone buildings, private terraces, and conversations held behind closed doors, Van grew up in a world where influence never announced itself-it simply reigned. From an early age, he learned that attention was expensive and mistakes were remembered. He grew into the kind of man who understood outcomes before conversations happened. A strategist by instinct. So why... No... how did this lawyer with a sharp mouth and an inability to leave things unfinished manage to force a result he never intended? To Van, people had always been pawns-pieces moved by desire, fear, ambition, and timing. And so was she. Until she wasn't. Until she looked at a finished game and chose not to play by his rules. And now... until he gets what he wants, he'll make sure she has no choice but to look back. Prosecutor X Predator. May the hunt begin.

"I got you something." He told her pulling away, while she watched him curiously until he pulled out a pandora bag. Her eyes widened at the necklace with an infinity symbol in crested with small little diamonds. "How you even afford this kari?" She questioned, unable to take her eyes off of it. "Shit, my savings." He rubbed the back of his head that possessed his starter loc twists. "That was so nice of you, you didn't have too." She smiled softly finally looking at him, "Can you put it on me?" He stood behind her and she moved her hair out of the way as he put it around her neck and clipped it back together. Her hand immediately went to it. "I'm never gone take it off." She promised him turning to face him. "I love you kari." "I love you too, hone. Til Infinity." --- When an unfortunate sequence of events suddenly separates two bestfriends, Dakari and Honesty, with no plausible reason, it's shakes up the world of the two inseparable individuals.
