The year is 2201.
Alina Pritchett is the daughter of a chef who works at the Crest--a palace formerly known as the White House. But her father is not who he seems; he does not just cook, but is also avidly involved with a rebellious group trying to topple the American Empire. Ever since Alina was young, she has known the horrors that They commit, and has been yearning for the time when she can truly fix her world.
Braen Chancel is the son of the President of the American Empire. He has been trained for years in political machinations and etiquette, waiting for the moment when he can take over from his father and follow in his footsteps.
Follow Alina from the moment that she meets Braen at twelve years old, and watch as she grows up beside her enemy. Alina will learn how to keep secrets, and how to have friends on both sides of a war. She will learn how to let go of attachments, and she will learn the true meaning of sacrifice and loyalty. No one will remain unscathed by the civil conflict that is about to unfold before your very eyes.

She is your typical sunshine. All bright smiles and big personalities - or at least that is what she shows to everyone else besides herself. The only person who see's her dark thoughts, numbed feelings, and painful days was him.
But after her father was found to be the traitor of the Yakuza organization in the States, she is immediately labelled as the traitors daughter. An enemy, a scum.
With a mother battling wit health issues, a younger sister to provide for, she begs for mercy.
𝑹𝒚𝒐𝒔𝒖𝒌𝒆 𝑺𝒂𝒌𝒖𝒓𝒂𝒛𝒖𝒌𝒊
The person the world sees is cold, manipulative, apathetic man who was the next leader of the Yakuza Organization of the states. He was seen as emotionless, even those close to him.
Naturally, everyone expected him to get rid of the traitor's family. Except he didn't.
He has emotions, but hides them. But there was one person who knew him better than he did and couldn't apply his logic to . . . Her.
So what happens when a girl who feels too much and a boy who pretends to feels very little fall for each other and find that they complete each other when their situations pulls them apart?
