P-please, I beg you. Come let's go tell Christian I had no hand in whatever happened, p-please." I clutched the lapel of his jacket desperately. "Let's go. You need to tell my husband the truth." "Young lady, you're harassing me." His tone was cold and his stare granite. "You harassed me first!

Résumé : La Sirène et le Centaure Depuis des millénaires, un sang noir et salé coule entre les royaumes de la Terre et de la Mer. Les Centaures des plaines brûlent d'une haine viscérale pour les Sirènes des abysses, qu'ils tiennent pour responsables du grand Déluge qui engloutit leurs ancêtres. Une paix froide et fragile, tissée de mépris, est la seule loi qui prévaut. Éliane, princesse sirène promise au terrible Roi des Abysses, étouffe dans sa cage de corail et de devoir. Sa voix, capable d'apaiser les colères de l'océan, est son plus grand pouvoir et sa malédiction. Kaël, roi centaure et gardien des terres sacrées, porte le poids de sa couronne comme une entrave, son cœur de guerrier assoiffé d'une liberté qu'il ne connaît pas. Mais une prophétie ancienne, oubliée de la plupart, rôde : "L'union de l'Écume et du Sabot fera trembler le Trône des Cieux et précipitera les mondes dans le chaos." Leur amour est une étincelle au-dessus d'un baril de poudre. Lorsque leur secret est découvert, la fureur des dieux et de leurs peuples respectifs s'abat sans pitié. La mer se retire, laissant les royaumes sous-marins à sec. La terre se fissure, avalant forêts et troupeaux. Pour empêcher l'anéantissement total, un prix terrible est exigé : Éliane doit sacrifier sa voix magique, et Kaël sa liberté, acceptant des chaînes éternelles. À l'aube, sur une plage devenue le champ de bataille de leurs cœurs, ils se font face une dernière fois. Un baiser, à la fois doux et désespéré, scelle leur destin. Leur amour était-il une malédiction à éviter, ou la seule prophétie capable de sauver deux mondes qui ne savaient plus que se haïr ?

In order to help my family take over the Vitales' casino that's based in North Melcina, I conceal my identity as the sole daughter of Don Leonardo Ricci and begin working as a dealer in Las Vogis. During my undercover mission, I get close to Mattia Vitale, the heir of the Vitales, on purpose. At the same time, I secretly get my hands on the Vitales' weak points. Not only does Mattia not realize my intentions, but he also showers me with love and affection. He doesn't hesitate to gift me jewelry worth millions of dollars. Sometimes, he surprises me with fireworks worth tens of millions of dollars. In fact, he once burns a contract worth a hundred million dollars just to light my cigarette. As I stand under the sky filled with fireworks in Las Vogis, I hear my heart pounding wildly in my chest. Hence, I reject my dad's decision to devour the Vitale family. I thought I finally found true love. But lately, Mattia hasn't been coming home that much now. He also grows colder toward me. In fact, he even announces to everyone else that I'm just his personal assistant at his family gathering. His excuse for hiding our relationship is that he's worried his family elders might target me. But what he doesn't know is that when he almost lost his net worth at the gambling table, I was the one who secretly swapped the cards, allowing him to make a victorious comeback. I plan on telling Mattia the truth on his birthday, and I've already drafted a business deal between my family and his as a surprise for him. But I end up witnessing Mattia being entangled with another woman from my position outside his office. That woman is Ginevra Bellini, the heiress of the Bellini family, a nouveau riche family that has earned their gold from real estate in North Melcina. The Bellinis are as wealthy and powerful as the Vitales, so to the Vitales, Ginevra is the most perfect and suitable marriage partner to Mattia. So, it turns out that Mattia has already labelled his love accordingly. I'm just the bargaining chip that he has chosen to discard after weighing the pros and cons. With a sneer on my face, I toss the contract into the shredder. Then, I call my dad's number. "Do it, Dad. Let's devour the Vitales."
