Isabelle Moreau doesn't belong in this world. The luxury, the whispered deals, the hidden intentions-it's all suffocating. Yet here she stands, in a dazzling auction hall where the rich and powerful claim whatever they desire. She has only one goal: retrieve the documents hidden within a painting. The problem? She's not the only one after them. Lando Norris is both legend and danger. His gaze traps her, his voice is both a promise and a warning. When one of his people wins the auction, Isabelle knows she has lost. But Lando never takes without offering something in return. Now, she has a choice: walk away empty-handed or accept his deal. One evening, one conversation. A bargain that might cost her more than she's willing to give. In a world where every word is a game and every move could be a mistake, Isabelle is drawn into a dangerous dance. One thing is certain-nothing will ever be the same again.
