Twisted Fate : Forbidden Desire

**"Beneath velvet masks and blood-soaked vows, love blooms where it should never exist."**

Leona Rossi was raised on tragedy-the day she came home from school to find her family slaughtered, her father's dying breath whispering of revenge against the Nicolai empire. Sworn into an association of agents, she sharpened herself into the perfect weapon. Her mission: infiltrate Xavier Nicolai's world, steal his secrets, and end the bloodline that destroyed hers.

But Xavier is not the monster she expected. He is ruthless, yes-cold, violent, and feared by all who dare betray him-but beneath his cruelty lives a man carved by scars, shadows, and secrets of his own. Drawn into his orbit as his personal assistant under a false identity, Leona is forced to balance the knife's edge between duty and desire.

Every touch is a risk. Every kiss, a betrayal. Every glance, a war between the lies she tells and the truths she's beginning to crave.

When Xavier uncovers her deception, instead of killing her, he binds her to him forever-with a forced marriage that turns into a twisted dance of obsession, vengeance, and passion too dangerous to resist.

In a world of blood oaths, brutal power, and burning secrets, Leona must decide: is she still an agent of revenge, or has she become the queen of a king she was sent to destroy?
