Two years after a bitter divorce, Cas never expected to knock on her ex-husband's door again-let alone ask him for the one thing only he can give: an heir. But her ex isn't just any man. He is No. 99, a phantom assassin whispered about in intelligence files, a weapon the world fears but never truly sees.
Bound by a prophecy that forbids him from fathering a child, No. 99 refuses her plea. Yet Cas can't turn back. A dark curse has plagued her bloodline for generations, and only by conceiving an heir with him can she hope to break it.
But in chasing her ex-husband's reluctant agreement, Cas steps into a deadly game of secrets and betrayal. Shadows from No. 99's past close in, enemies circle, and the prophecy tightens like a noose.
How far will Cas go to defy destiny-and how long can No. 99 resist the pull of the woman who once shattered his heart?
