Rosalie Lavigne was born into a world of power, violence, and expectation. As the sole heir to the French Mafia, she was raised not with dolls and fairy tales, but with discipline and survival skills-boxing, knife throwing, marksmanship. From an early age, she was trained to navigate the brutal reality of her family's legacy.

But growing up in the shadows of the criminal underworld came at a cost. Loneliness became her closest companion, her only company the bodyguards assigned to her. She never had friends her own age, never experienced the carefree existence of an ordinary childhood. Every moment of her life was dictated by duty-training, studying, obeying. She was shaped not as a daughter, but as an asset to the family.

Yet, buried beneath the weight of expectation, a desire for something more began to stir. Summoning the courage to defy her parents, Rosalie made her case: she wanted to attend Harvard University, just as her father had once done. After relentless persuasion and an exhausting lecture on the dangers of distractions-parties, recklessness, failure-they finally relented. It was her chance to escape, to build a life outside the world she had always known.

Or so she thought.

Just as she embraced the illusion of freedom, Rosalie discovered the truth-her parents had forged a pact with their greatest enemy, sealing a truce through an arranged marriage. What was meant to be her fresh start had already been decided for her. Now, she must confront the ultimate betrayal: would she ever forgive them for taking away her choice, or would this marriage become the unexpected salvation from the world she once called home?
