My life before was just like my name, Haven. Everything was peaceful, everything went my way, and I had everything that I needed. If I wanted something, I'd have it in a snap. I didn't need to move, make an effort, or work for it. I just needed my daddy's tiny rectangular card that might look insignificant but carried the world on its little sharp edges. Money might not equate to happiness, but it certainly made life easier for me. And yet a year later, from heaven I was dropped into my version of hell. Now, I'm standing in the aisle of a grocery store, wondering if I should just buy another batch of instant noodles because I don't want to waste money-money that I barely have to begin with-on food that will just end up being barely edible. Was that the hell I'm talking about? No. It's working unbelievably long hours just to get paid basically nothing, and wanting to buy food to eat because I haven't had one meal for the day, only to end up having a gun on my head. Oh, and before I forget-kidnapped! At a grocery store! My version of hell? It's the tattooed, hot-headed Italian and head of a secret criminal society, Allessio Cascella.

Tiara Millicent Silvano is considered as one of the most famous and influential prima ballerinas. She was at the top. There was no place to go. There was nothing more to reach for. Control, which had been the power she yielded from a very young age, became the sword pointed at her neck. She was exhausted, ragged to the bones. She was tired of how the world sees her. Like a wind-up music box with a ballerina that doesn't stop dancing. A beautiful doll that only exist to be admired. Until it was him who was watching her. Domino Dawson. He doesn't look at her like an object of fascination, but rather, it feels like he couldn't care any less if she broke her knees and stopped dancing. It's like he doesn't care if she's out of rhythm, if she doesn't smile and wave, or if she act a little unhinged and unbalanced. He doesn't see her pretense of perfection; what he sees is the brokenness, the cracks, and the edges... the real her that even she can't recognize at times.
