Crimson Ties

Irenea Harper was the best in her field; the line of espionage. She could charm her way out of a death sentence, change identities faster than you could blink, and has completed enough missions to earn her the respect of her superiors. Then came the mission in Sicily. The mission was to climb the ranks of a notorious crime organization called the Velvet Viper, an odd name but that was besides the point. Easy enough. That was until she met the boss, Roya Vale.

Roya Vale never lost. She was the top in her line of work, sealing deals and eliminating all the other players until she was the queen. She never imagined someone could snake their way into her ranks. Until a little spy decided to slip in; Irenea Harper. Irenea Harper, also known by her codename, Circe, was the only person she had met who could match her wit, her strength, and her intelligence. So, what did she do? She let the spy into her close ranks, promoting her to her personal assistant. It was dangerous, stupid, and risked everything she had worked so hard for. But it was also so enthralling to see how Miss Harper's breath hitched whenever she brushed too closely.
