Kai Oscalla has always been the perfect member of the Oscalla Clan-sharp, loyal, and fearless. So when she was assigned the dangerous task of spying on their rival clan, the Montaigne Clan, she doesn't even blink. This mission is just another job, another way to prove her worth and test her skills.
But things don't go as planned. Somewhere between the lies she tells and the truths she uncovers, Kai notices something-or someone-that she never expected. Someone who sees past her mask. Someone who makes her heart skip a beat. And just like that, everything gets so much more complicated.
Now Kai's stuck in a whirlwind of secrets, betrayal, and emotions she doesn't want to admit she's feeling. How do you choose between the family you've always known and the possibility of something... more? What happens when a weapon of war starts dreaming of peace, love, and acceptance?
In a world where trust is dangerous and love feels impossible, Kai has to figure out who she really is and what she's willing to risk. Because sometimes, even a gun can turn into a rose.
