Seraphine Lucienne Moreau Valestri was one of the deadliest assassins in Europe. Then she lost a bet to her older brother and landed the most humiliating mission of her life.

The assignment:
No weapons. No identity. No pride.
She must infiltrate the life of a Manila-based lawyer who accidentally ruined their billion-dollar mafia deal, all while pretending to be a broke, unstable, ghost-hunting "spirit medium."

There's just one problem.

Attorney Rafael Ilustre doesn't believe in ghosts.
He believes in logic, law, and filing formal complaints when his neighbor starts chanting in Latin at 3 AM.

But when Seraphine starts appearing at crime scenes with eerily accurate "visions," Rafa finds himself drawn into her bizarre world of salt circles, haunted mop priests, and ghost stories that somehow always lead to the truth.

What he doesn't know is this:
The ghosts are fake.
The hauntings are staged.
And the woman he thinks is deranged might be the assassin sent to eliminate him.

Seraphine was ordered to get close, gather intel, and finish the job. She was never supposed to enjoy it. She was never supposed to protect him. And she definitely wasn't supposed to fall for him.

Now she has a choice to make.
Follow orders and destroy the man who trusts her the most.
Or risk everything to protect him from the family she was born to serve.

Teenage years are supposed to be the best time of your life. Have fun, break the rules, fall in love, just living your life to the fullest. Your last chance of being carefree before adulthood, a time period where your greatest worry is school. That's how it is for everyone, right? Wrong. Athena does not live her life to the fullest and she is certainly not problem free. Being on the run after she escaped her orphanage, she has to survive while being responsible for the life of her little brother, Noah. If only her eighteenth birthday could come faster. That's when she'll be able to live a normal life. Until then she is left alone to take care of herself. Or maybe not. Athena has brothers. Five of them. She hasn't lived her whole life in an orphanage and she wasn't left there by her parents. She was taken, abducted. What happens when the siblings finally reunite? ----------- There are hundreds of mafia stories on wattpad, I'm gonna try and make this one as original as I can but I don't make any promises.
