Blood runs thick. Secrets run thicker.
Beneath the gilded chandeliers of the Moretti estate, power reigns and loyalty fractures. Kalvin Moretti, the formidable patriarch of one of California's most influential families, is dying-and with his fading strength comes the unraveling of everything he's built.
Konstantine Moretti, the cold and commanding eldest son, carries the weight of the family empire on his shoulders and the slow-burning discontent of a marriage on the brink. His wife, Melissa, navigates motherhood, ambition, and the subtle seduction of being seen-truly seen-by someone unexpected.
Krayliet Moretti, the brooding middle son born of scandal, is a man divided between protecting his bloodline and fighting the ghosts of his past. His fiancée, Santana, carries not only his child but also the sting of betrayal, the judgment of high society, and the sharp tongue of a mother-in-law who never accepted her.
Kantine, the youngest and most free-spirited of the Moretti brothers, tries to escape legacy through fame, but finds that family sins have long shadows-even under stage lights.
And then there's Fabian-charming, mysterious, and newly introduced to a family that never knew he existed. With secrets of his own and a gaze that lingers too long, he may be the key to unraveling or uniting what remains of the Moretti legacy.
As love turns into leverage, trust becomes a weapon, and one woman's slap echoes louder than gunfire, the Morettis will have to face the truth: in this house, no one escapes without bleeding.
They were never supposed to fall in love.
Because love, in their world, was a luxury no one could afford.
Valeria Moretti - the cold-hearted, forgotten daughter of the Moretti mafia. Feared by enemies, hated by her family, and buried beneath layers of secrets. What no one knows? She's the hidden mastermind behind a global fashion empire, and the twin sister who never stopped mourning.
Rafael D'Amore - the calculating heir of the D'Amore dynasty. Ruthless in business, loyal only to blood, and never expected to protect the woman he was forced to marry.
Their marriage was nothing but strategy.
Until it wasn't.
As empires collide and pasts unravel, what begins in hatred slowly turns into something neither of them expected. But when trust is fragile and ghosts of the past still haunt, love isn't enough - unless they rebuild from the ruins.
This is not just a love story.
It's a story of war, vengeance, grief, survival, healing- and the kind of love that demands to be chosen.
