Enma had always struggled to live a perfectly normal life. Normal, in their household, meant that she had to follow her mother's every rule and be excellent at school academically and socially.
When Enma found out about the secret that her family had kept from her, she made a promise to herself. No more. She's done conforming and compromising herself; she will decide on her life and her own happiness.
With this realization, Enma's path crossed with Ian. He was perfect and the complete opposite of her. Effortlessly intelligent and good looking, with a wealthy and a well stablished family.
Ian was the one thing that Enma didn't anticipate or even thought of. She convinced herself that her sole purpose was to focus on finding her "true self", to finally be free from the shadow that bound her since childhood.
But as they both learn from each other, as they uncover the truths about themselves, Enma will start to question herself and her own pursuit of happiness. As the layers starts to fall, so will she.

lucifer, let's make a deal
Seraphine Van Zeler thrives in her double life -- by night, a masked burlesque dancer captivating the high society's elite; by day, a calculating serial killer, cleaning up the deaths of the powerful men who once assaulted her sister -- the very same sister who abandoned her. Every performance, every death cleaned, brings her one step closer to finding her. Then, one night, an unmasked gentleman places a 5 million bid for a night with her. He loses -- but for reasons Seraphine can't explain, she wishes he'd won. His piercing gaze lingers in her mind, his knowing stare unsettling her in ways she doesn't understand. By morning, she's in handcuffs, accused of the murders she's spent years cleaning and covering-up in secret. And when she faces her interrogator, she's met with the same unforgettable eyes -- Lucifer Abalkin. Seraphine denies the killing. But instead of pressing for a confession, Lucifer makes her an offer: become a Grim Reaper for the Hades Organization, work by his side, and he'll set her free. There's just one catch -- he doesn't just want her as a partner. 𝙃𝙚 𝙬𝙖𝙣𝙩𝙨 𝙝𝙚𝙧 𝙖𝙨 𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙬𝙞𝙛𝙚. Seraphine leans in, smiling against Lucifer's lips. "𝙇𝙪𝙘𝙞𝙛𝙚𝙧, 𝙡𝙚𝙩'𝙨 𝙢𝙖𝙠𝙚 𝙖 𝙙𝙚𝙖𝙡," she says.
