The Aragons 10: At Wit's End

She's searching for answers. He's destroying the lies built to hide them.

Shakti dela Vega only wanted one thing: to uncover the truth about her father's disappearance.

Everyone else had already written him off-the police, the reporters, even their own relatives. They all believed he'd walked out of their lives without a backward glance, or worse, dead. But Shakti knew better. She knew the man behind the uniform, the father who never missed a birthday, the one person she trusted more than anyone-even more than her mother.

What she didn't know was how to find him while chained to a headset and a keyboard. Working nights as a virtual assistant paid the bills, but it stole her sleep, her time, and any chance she had to follow the threads she'd gathered from years of obsessively watching crime documentaries. She needed one break-one opening-to put her amateur detective instincts to real use.

Across the city, Darius Crose had a mission of his own: erase every trace of his father's empire. Raised in the shadows of crime, he had been shaped into a weapon - until Caddaric showed him another path, and Gazelle taught him what love is.

Now he was dismantling his father's syndicate piece by piece, hunting down every corrupt partner who was building their own empire.

Until he found a picture of a girl with mismatched eyes - one dark brown, the other hazel - tucked in a dirty cop's wallet. Eyes he couldn't look away from.

Their paths were already set on a collision course.

Shakti, at her wit's end, searching for the truth about her father.

And Darius, determined to erase a legacy built on blood.
