While working her shift in a laundry house, Arielle LaRue comes in contact with a mutilated hand with a lot of jeweleries on it. Unbeknownst to her, the hand belongs to a member of a dangerous cult. The strange discovery drags her into a world of fear, treachery, blood and of course, love.
Lucas Martin is the young Lord of a dangerous cult. Hearing that a lady, who worked at the laundry house he used, disappeared with the hand of a member of his cult makes him angry and a little intrigued. A brief contact with her shows him the smart and fierce woman beneath the beautiful face.
Will they succeed together or will the forces in the dark keep them apart?
A thriller of betrayal, trust, survival and love.

"Why did you fucking run away?"
She paused for a second. "Because I saw a bloodied hand in the bag you brought."
He shook his head. "That's not reason enough to run away. If I left my wallet at your workplace, you should keep it and return it when I come back. That's what normal people do."
She looked at him with a dry expression. "I'm very sure normal people will never compare a mutilated hand with a flimsy purse. They are barely in the same category."
**********************************************************************************************
"That's not all. You'll have to complete a task for us."
She eyed the man warily. "What task?"
"It's been concluded that there is a traitor in our midst. Your task will be to fish out this individual or individuals, as the case may be."
