She was supposed to be ordinary. He was never supposed to find her. But when betrayal strikes, Crescent University's "normal" girl is revealed to be anything but.
⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅
Selena "Luna" Song has never been normal-though at Crescent University, she does her best to blend in. Sixteen, brilliant, and already a grade ahead, she thinks she has her life under control.
Until she literally crashes into him.
Vincenzo "Enzo" Guerra. Dangerous, untouchable, and the son of Italy's most feared mafia boss. Enzo has lived in the shadows since childhood, haunted by the memory of a mysterious assassin who once saved his life. An assassin he never expected to meet again.
Alessia Guerra, Enzo's younger sister, hides her sharp edges behind a cheerful smile. Skilled, lethal, and fiercely loyal, she's far more than the role she plays.
Christopher "Chris" Song-Luna's brother, nine years older, protective to the bone-has sacrificed everything to keep her safe. By his side is Amy Becker, his steady, resilient wife, who knows more than she lets on.
━━ ˖°˖ ☾☆☽ ˖°˖ ━━
For years, the Italian mafia has been at war with the Russians. But when someone vital is kidnapped, the war erupts into chaos.
Luna has already planned for this moment. She's always been ready.
But plans mean nothing when betrayal cuts deeper than any blade.
And this time, it isn't just the mafia at stake-
...it's her life, her family, and the truth she's been running from.
Because even assassins can't escape their past.

The minute she turns around, my eyes lock onto her. Her striking features catch my attention, and I notice the exhaustion in her amber eyes.
Then it hits me. She's the girl who tried to escape earlier outside.
I've seen her before. Where have I seen her before? I've seen her where-suddenly, realization strikes me.
She was the one who served us at the club.
"Y-You," my son stares at her in disbelief.
"Yeah, I know I'm hot as fuck," she smirks.
