What if everything you ever knew was a lie?
Everything you ever heard was simply meant to deceive?
Everything you ever saw and experienced was false?

What if everything was just... a mere illusion?

Raelyn Raige was far from a normal girl. She had been undercover for nearly all of her 22 years of life. With her parents dead at an early age, she grew up with her uncle working for the SSS a.k.a the States Secret Services. When Rae was secretly sent to look for any traitors in the different bases among the group, she ends up stumbling upon a territory she should've never even gotten close to. Despite all the signs screaming at her to stop going any further, she continues forward. Her stubborn personality led her right into a trap and as the saying goes curiosity killed the cat... 

Slade Acosta, a 24-year-old, is a dominant yet isolated man. He is the starter and leader of the night errand boy company, Verdani. The group of men who do the dirty work for the higher up politicians and people with power. Verdani is an illegal company, yet very well known all across the underground system. They are feared, but the funny thing is,  no one knows where their agency is actually located. So imagine their surprise and suspicion, when a small girl ends up discovering their place. Something feels off, yet is it the girl or is it something else... With such a deep dark past, and overbearing personality, will Slade's heart start to thaw for this crazy girl? 

When both worlds of different people that were never meant to meet collide, it's a ticking bomb bound to blow off.  As Slade and Rae start to fall deeper for each other, more complicated problems start to surface which makes everyone question their sanity and rethink if everything they ever knew was a lie. They can't trust anyone. Everything could be an illusion. And as it all boils down, what if the good guys were really the bad guys in disguise?
