Elias Connor doesn't hide from his name. As the grandson of the founder of SDN, royalty runs in his blood. As the son of Elliot Connor-the infamous Shroud-so does a legacy of violence.
Fifteen years ago, Shroud murdered the father of the boy Elias loved. Though Elias didn't pull the trigger, Robert's grief demanded a target, and their relationship shattered under the weight of the blame. Elias spent the next decade and a half building an empire to prove he was more than just his father's son, eventually rising to become the CEO of the SDN USA branch.
He thought he had left the past behind. He was wrong.
When a routine meeting with Blazer at the LA branch leads to a sudden, head-on collision with Robert, fifteen years of carefully constructed walls begin to crack. Robert still harbors a bitter resentment, seeing the ghost of Shroud every time he looks at Elias. But Elias is no longer the heartbroken boy who took the blame for sins he didn't commit. He commands the room, unapologetic and unyielding.
In a dangerous game of lingering trauma, unspoken tension, and corporate power plays, they must navigate the wreckage of what they lost. Can they outrun the shadows of the past, or is the Connor legacy destined to destroy them all over again?
