Dante and Kael

Emmy was not born to obey. From a young age, he learned that the world wasn't fair—and decided that if he had to survive, it would be at the top. He inherited his father's criminal empire after his mysterious death, still only 21 years old, and soon transformed the D'Argento family into the most feared in the country.

She was cold. Ruthless. The kind of woman who sealed deals with a look and destroyed enemies with a snap of her fingers. But her life, built on bought loyalty and spilled blood, begins to turn upside down when she meets two unlikely men—Dante and Kael.

Kael –

A mercenary seemingly disconnected from life, who lives as if nothing matters. But Emmy discovers that behind his relaxed facade, Kael is a brilliant strategist, able to predict moves before they happen. He saves her life during a rival attack—and Emmy begins to rely on his calm, mysterious gaze more than she'd like.

Dante –

A former police officer kicked out of the force out of revenge. He appears trying to kill Emmy in an ambush, believing that she was responsible for her father's death. But when he's captured, Emmy sees something beyond hatred in his eyes—courage. And instead of killing him… she recruits him. Over time, his anger turns to protection. And his desire for revenge turns into another kind of desire.
