18 parts Ongoing In the brutal underworld of crime, where power and betrayal reign, Bella Di Luca is an assassin forged by her past of pain and abandonment. Her parents' cruelty pushed her to the edge, and when they orchestrated her kidnapping and torture at the age of 15, Bella was left to survive on her own. Now, as a deadly operative for the Italian Mafia, she carries the weight of her scars-both physical and emotional.
Allexei Ivanov, the cold and calculating Pakhan of the Russian Bratva, runs his empire with a firm grip. When their paths collide in Moscow, neither is prepared for the storm that follows. Tension crackles between them from the very first moment:
"You think you can control everything, but you forget who you're dealing with." Bella's voice was calm, almost mocking, her eyes locking onto his.
"You're not the only one who controls their destiny, Bella. Don't mistake my patience for weakness."
As Bella carries out her ruthless missions, she finds herself drawn to the imposing figure of Allexei. His every move is deliberate, his touch controlling, and his words always heavy with meaning. But his obsession with her runs deeper than she could have imagined.
Allexei's breath was steady as he squeezed the trigger. The target dropped, lifeless. "No one dares to cross me," he muttered. "No one. And I will make sure of it."
But beneath their fierce exterior, something more powerful begins to form. Allexei's dark obsession and Bella's guarded heart are bound by a shared hunger for control and a need for survival. As their worlds collide, neither can resist the pull of the other, but love in their world comes with deadly consequences.
Will Bella allow herself to be loved, or will her past consume her? And will Allexei's obsession drive them both over the edge?
In a world beneath the ice, where trust is fragile and betrayal is inevitable, only the strongest will survive.
