The Silence Protocol

"Stay away from me, Ms. De León. I am your professor."

"Then stop looking at me like you already own me, Professor Valencia. Dahil sa oras na lumapit ako... baka tuluyan mong makalimutan na may klase ka pa."

Solane Céleste Valencia lives a life of
calculated ice.

As a law professor, her only mission is to dismantle the shadow network of elite billionaires responsible for her mother's death. She doesn't do distractions. She doesn't do mistakes.

Then came Zael Vesper De León.
Sarcastic, reckless, and living under a stolen identity, Zael is everything Solane should avoid. By day, she's a troublesome law student. By night, she's a ghost in a white tank top and a leather jacket, bleeding her dark secrets into the raw, distorted strings of an electric guitar.

Solane knows she shouldn't look. She knows she should step back. But under the blinding neon lights of the underground scene, the cold professor finds herself completely frozen by her student's noise.

They are supposed to keep their distance.

But when the monstrous syndicate from their past breathes down their necks, their separate thirst for vengeance bleeds into one.

Every touch is a sin. Every glance is a battlefield.

Solane spent her whole life trying to control everything... only to realize that the more she fights the pull, the more she completely loses herself to Zael.

And this time, they are ready to make some noise.
