Chasing August's Ghost (Completed)

Red Society 4: August Leone "Leo" Vitale

August Vitale lives two lives - architect by day, a zodiac member of a mafia organization by choice. After two heartbreaks, he swore he'd never let anyone in again. No more vulnerability, no more feelings-just a cold, calculated existence. But when Mitsuika Valeria Serrano, a fierce and unapologetically tough street fighter, storms into his world, everything changes. She's everything he's not-wild, unrefined, and as far removed from the quiet, disciplined life he's built as possible.

Their chemistry is undeniable, their differences impossible to ignore. Yet, fate seems to have other plans. Drawn together by a bond neither of them understands, they begin to fall into a relationship that is as tumultuous as it is magnetic. But their shared history-filled with old wounds, betrayals, and unhealed scars-threatens to pull them apart at every turn.

As their pasts begin to unravel and secrets are exposed, what once felt like a cosmic connection becomes a battlefield of trust and pain. Can a man who has already given up on love allow himself to open his heart again? Will a woman hardened by years of survival be able to let her guard down?

He is the sun, and she is the moon. The sun gives everything for the moon's survival, burning itself out every night to let her shine. But when the sun dies, will the moon thrive, or will her own existence wither in its absence? In a world of lies, betrayal, and dangerous passions, their love may be the most dangerous game of all.

In the end, can their love survive their darkest secrets, or will they both be consumed by their own shadows?
