Elora was born in France but moved to Italy when she was 4. Her younger sister, Jade , and her were sold to a man named Alessio. A man that Elora has faint memory of, comes into her father's mansion and buys her sister and her off in exchange for his silence. Elora luckily escaped but unfortunately, she doesn't know where her sister is or who has her. The possibilities were the cause of many sleepless nights.
Going by the stage name Raven, she makes her money by stripping at an underground strip club and bar called Lavish and Luxury. She dances for leaders of wanted mafia groups, assassins, drug lords, and many more dangerous and disgustingly rich men. There she meets an Italian mafia don named Vincent. Because of Vincent, Elora starts to feel something she hasn't felt in so long, hope. With this newfound hope, Elora is determined to find her sister.

She was raised to smile sweetly and shoot without mercy. He was trained to rule an empire built on blood. Kataleya Rosario is the Cuban cartel princess no one sees coming-an assassin hidden beneath silk, a woman wrapped in charm but forged in violence. She follows her own rules, fears no man, and plays a deadly game with a smile on her blood-red lips. Adrian Romero is the cold, calculating heir to the Italian mafia throne. Feared by all. Loved by none. Except for the one girl who broke his heart when they were teenagers-the one girl he could never have. Now, they're being forced into an arranged marriage meant to end a war. But Kataleya doesn't bow, and Adrian doesn't beg. And love? That's not part of the contract. As secrets unravel, bullets fly, and passion ignites into obsession, the lines between love and hate blur. Beneath the violence lies a truth neither of them wants to admit-they were made for each other. But in a world where betrayal is currency and power means everything, can two assassins trust the one person who could destroy them both? 50 chapters of romance, war, and filthy temptation. Enemies. Lovers. And one final vow sealed in blood.Complete
