Tubuhnya yang kurus seolah tak berdaya tersapu angin.  Hidupnya berubah drastis setelah Kaisar Devone Lorens—yang tak lain paman suaminya—meninggal dunia akibat pemberontakan, dan keluarganya dieksekusi. Yang lebih parah lagi, orang yang mengeksekusi kedua orang tuanya adalah suaminya sendiri, tepat di hadapannya dan di depan seluruh rakyat Kekaisaran Utara.  Duke Camille Lorens membalas pertanyaan istrinya dengan tawa penuh penghinaan. Ia mencengkram dagu Griceliene dengan kasar.  "Artinya kamu kalah, karena aku berhasil merebut hatimu. Griceliene, semua ini baru permulaan. Penderitaanmu yang sesungguhnya akan segera menantimu," ucap Camille sebelum mengunci pintu loteng, tempat Griceliene dikurung selama ini.

If you’re filthy minded, step inside the doors of Dirty Angels and order a drink. Dirty Angels is a cocktail bar where desire, power, and bad decisions collide. Everyone who walks through its doors is hiding something, and everyone wants something they shouldn’t. The story unfolds through rotating points of view, each character given five chapters at a time to reveal the dirty business they’re involved in. Mafia deals. Billionaire secrets. Bad boys with dangerous appetites. Obsessions that refuse to stay buried. Each arc can be read on its own, but together they weave into a larger, darker story as the full truth behind Dirty Angels slowly comes into focus. At the centre are Marisol and Ethan, locked in a volatile enemies-to-lovers dynamic neither of them is willing to name. Around them orbit lovers, rivals, and predators: a mafia ex who won’t let go, a billionaire with too much power, a shark lawyer who knows exactly where the bodies are buried, and a found family bound together by loyalty, desire, and shared secrets. Dirty Angels attracts those who crave the forbidden. Boundaries blur. Power shifts hands. Desire takes many forms, and not everyone is looking for love. Some will find it anyway. Others will burn everything down on the way.
