Ten years ago, Eliana was judged, condemned, and exiled by her own blood. Accused of attempting to murder her perfect identical twin sister, Rosalie, she was dumped at the St. Jude Academy-a brutal, highly classified boarding school designed to strip away human emotion and build elite lethal assets. To the world, she became Subject 417. The Regina. Now, at fifteen, the contract is fulfilled. Eliana is suddenly summoned back to the sprawling, hyper-secured estate of her biological family. Her cold parents and five older brothers expect a broken, guilty girl desperate for their forgiveness. They plan to force her into high society at the prestigious St. Augustine's Private Academy, using her as a quiet chess piece to maintain their public perfection. But behind the expensive suits, heavy security, and perfect smiles, her family is hiding a dark secret: they run a powerful, ruthless mafia syndicate. They think they've brought back a compliant teenager they can control. They have no idea that Eliana doesn't feel fear, doesn't feel guilt, and views their entire household as a hostile threat matrix. With her brilliant tech-specialist best friend, Isabella, operating as her secret eye in the sky, Eliana begins a silent, slow-burn psychological war against her hostile brothers and her deeply manipulative twin. They loathe her presence. They challenge her boundaries. But they are about to learn the hard way that you should never let a monster back into the house.

At five, Clara Artese gets kidnapped from her family. At seventeen, she returns as a weapon. After twelve years in The Foundry, a secret organization that turns children into elite assassins, Clara has learned how to read every heartbeat, use her body to kill and her voice to manipulate. When her family finally finds her, Clara has only one non-negotiable condition: she won't go home without Silas and Vane, the two boys who survived the Foundry by her side. They are the only family she knows and she's ready to kill everyone who tries to separate them. The Arteses will do anything to have her back, even if it means taking two lethal strangers into their family. As a new mafia war looms and their past hunts them, Clara, Silas and Vane will learn that a family's love can be a lot more stubborn than whatever demon is chasing them. IMPORTANT NOTE: The Deadly Trio (Clara, Silas and Vane) share a strictly platonic bond. They are family, not lovers. Each of them will have their own separate love interest as the story progresses.

He was her safe place. Until he became her reason to run. Mateo and Lucia grew up as neighbors, best friends, and everything in between-inseparable since childhood. Everyone thought they were unbreakable. Everyone was wrong. One misunderstanding. One lie Mateo never questioned. And Lucia goes from being loved... to being ignored, humiliated, and emotionally crushed by the boy who once protected her. So she leaves. No explanations. No goodbyes. Just scars and a new identity. Years later, Lucia returns-harder, colder, and nothing like the girl Mateo broke. She doesn't need him. She doesn't miss him. And she definitely doesn't forgive him. But Mateo finally wants the truth. The problem? Lucia no longer wants him. Because some people don't get closure. They get consequences.
