37 parts Complete MatureWhen Ayla Moore finds her fate sealed by a 600-year-old Canon that acknowledges a man's primal right to vengeance, and sanctions murder in the name of honor, she has no idea how much her life is about to be turned upside down.
At twenty, Ayla becomes the unwitting currency in a transaction she never agrees to. Her life, exchanged to salvage the honor of a mobster, she's forced to atone for a crime she never committed, at the hands of man who knows no mercy.
Roman Berisha claims her, demanding a life for a life, claiming Ayla's as the price that must be paid for his brother's death. Claiming the only life she's ever known, he reduces it to a mere token in an archaic system of justice.
