The Judas Thread

Velvra is a city ruled by five crime families, where power wears silk gloves and loyalty is bought in blood.

Adrien Vale, the cold and calculating king of the Black Serpents, has spent years turning himself into something untouchable after inheriting a throne built on violence.

Maddox Kane, ruthless leader of the Crimson Blades, rules the city's underworld through fear, force, and a loyalty strong enough to start wars.

Once, Adrien trusted him.

Now the Five Families are turning against the Black Serpents, old alliances are beginning to fracture, and someone deep inside Velvra is pulling invisible threads toward open war.

But beneath the politics, betrayals, and bloodshed lies a secret buried years ago:
the death that gave Adrien his crown was never what it seemed.

And the man he may be falling for is the one who put it there.

In Velvra, love is just another weapon.
The problem is neither of them knows who's holding the blade anymore.
