In the city of Velaris, horror isn't just whispered-it's felt. For years, the citizens have lived in the shadow of terrifying legends: stories of dark figures lurking in alleyways, mysterious symbols appearing on doors, and disappearances that no one dares to investigate. But as fear festers in the hearts of the people, Amani, a determined journalist, refuses to believe in the supernatural explanations.

When a string of brutal murders shakes the city, Amani teams up with Mavros, a cold and enigmatic man with a shadowed past. As they delve deeper into the city's dark secrets, they begin to uncover a horrifying truth-one that blurs the line between legend and reality. The horrors haunting Velaris aren't what they seem, and the real threat may be more human than anyone dares to believe.

In a twisted game of power, deception, and fear, Amani and Mavros must unravel the mystery before they become the next victims. But with each clue, they get closer to a sinister truth: in Velaris, the greatest horror might not be in the legends, but in the people who created them.

(Tainted Series:1) **Four merciless rulers of the underworld. A mafia heiress thrown into a perilous game of power and betrayal. Her resilience will be tempered in the fires of darkness.** Svetlana~ Returning to Russia on my twenty-fourth birthday, I am confronted with a reality beyond my darkest fears. My father's revelation strikes like a thunderbolt-my destiny entwined with the most ruthless mafia lords of our era. Four men who command the shadows with an iron fist. Four tyrants who inspire fear and obedience wherever they tread. Four sovereigns who believe I am their possession to claim. **"In the realm of shadows, only the boldest survive. I will not be tamed."** As the daughter of a revered Russian family, I was meant to be sheltered from the brutalities of the criminal world. But now, I find myself at the center of a deadly game, where power and passion collide. They see me as their trophy, a symbol of their unchallenged supremacy. But they have underestimated my spirit. **"The darkness respects only those who challenge its reign."** My journey is a tapestry of ambition and defiance, woven with threads of loyalty and insurgency. They aim to subjugate me, to manipulate me as a pawn in their sinister dance of dominance. Yet, I refuse to be a passive player-I am the catalyst that will ignite the flames of change. In this labyrinth of deceit and power, I will forge my own destiny. I will not merely endure; I will rise. This is not a tale of submission and control-it is the saga of a woman ascending to her rightful place in a world governed by men. Svetlana, once averse to the mafia's dark allure, now stands at the precipice of her own awakening, ready to challenge the very foundations of their empire.
