WARNING: RATED SPG Geraldine is a top-tier undercover agent, feared and respected for never failing a mission. But her latest assignment takes an unexpected turn when she is forced to marry a stranger, standing in as a substitute bride for a man abandoned at the altar. That man is Michael Muller, an enigmatic tycoon who is, in truth, the ruthless emperor of the world’s most powerful mafia. The very enemy Geraldine has sworn to bring down. What begins as a mission rooted in deception soon entangles her heart. As Geraldine digs deeper into Michael’s world, she uncovers fragments of a shared past and feelings she thought she could resist but can’t. Torn between her duty and her growing love, she faces an impossible choice: betray the man she was sent to destroy or betray the organization she has dedicated her life to. In a world built on lies, blood, and loyalty, can their love survive, or will it ignite a war where only one can be left standing?

WARNING RATED SPG... Si Geraldine ay isang sikat at magaling na undercover agent na walang misyong hindi natatapos. Ngunit ang simpleng pagpapakasal niya bilang substitute bride sa isang lalaking iniwan sa altar ay nagdala sa kanya sa isang masalimuot na kwento ng pag-ibig, tungkulin, at nakatagong lihim. Ang lalaking iyon, si Michael Muller, ay hindi lamang isang negosyante kundi ang emperador ng pinakamakapangyarihang mafia sa mundo—ang mortal na kaaway ng gobyerno kung saan siya nagtatrabaho. Habang sinusubukan ni Geraldine na isagawa ang kanyang misyon laban kay Mike, unti-unti niyang natutuklasan ang kanilang malalim na koneksyon mula sa nakaraan at ang damdaming hindi niya mapigilan kahit pilit niyang nilalabanan. Ngunit sa mundo ng pagkakanulo at panganib, kailangang pumili ni Geraldine: ang sundin ang kanyang tungkulin bilang isang agent, o ang panindigan ang pagmamahal niya sa lalaking kinamumuhian ng organisasyong kanyang pinagsisilbihan. Mapapanindigan ba nila ang pag-ibig sa kabila ng dugo at kasinungalingan? O magwawakas ang lahat sa digmaan ng katapatan at kapalaran?

A month before our medical fellowship was over, my fated mate, Julian, secretly filed to transfer packs to the High Council. I overheard his friend trying to talk him out of it. "You're ditching your home pack for Crimson Peak, all for Elodie? You did it behind Vesper's back? She's dead set on going home to Silver Crest. She even landed the Chief Healer position. You think she'll just agree? Didn't you two leave the pack for the Neutral Territory just so you could one day go back and serve?" Julian just chuckled, loosening his tie. His voice was laced with the arrogant confidence of a man who thought he owned my soul. "Vesper's my fated mate. We're already bonded. She'll follow me to Crimson Peak, no questions asked. Besides, Elodie's wolf is too fragile. She can't be without me." I stood outside, the mate mark on my neck stinging. I turned and walked away. If he could choose another she-wolf, I could choose myself. I would sever our bond and claim my title as Chief Healer. A month later, my plane landed. He called, his voice urgent. "Vesper, are you at the Crimson Peak territory yet?" I looked up at the gleaming towers and silver totems of the Silver Crest pack. A fierce pride surged through me. "I'm already home."

From my earliest memories, my entire family is cold and distant toward me. When my parents look at my younger sister, Claire Lloyd, their eyes fill with warmth and joy. Yet, when they turn to me, only disgust remains. Claire's life is filled with applause and excessive love, while mine is filled with disdain and suffering. When the explosion erupts at the street corner, I save the stranger beside me. Later, I learn he is Byron Whitmore, a mafia family's Don. He begins pursuing me after I rescue him. Later, I quit my job and move to a new place, but he finds me and proposes in 100 different ways. "Why me?" I ask countless times. "Because it's you," he always answers. The wedding causes a sensation throughout the city. I truly seem to have transformed from an ugly duckling into a swan. That is, until I'm five months pregnant, when Claire needs a transfusion of rare Rh-negative blood after a car accident. The blood bank has a shortage. Because of that, my parents knock me unconscious and send me to the hospital. In my daze, the blood extraction machine hums continuously. As two thousand milliliters of blood leave my body, I see Byron. Tears well up in my eyes. I begin thinking he's here to save me. Instead, I hear him say, "We can't take any more. Sharon and the baby will die." "But Claire has lost too much blood. She'll die, too..." My mother pleads. "No one wants Claire safe more than I do." Byron's voice is thick with pain. "She's my first love. I've never forgotten her. I only married Sharon because her face looks so much like Claire's. "But I can't trade her life for Claire's. Trust me—I'll find another way." So, that's his reason for marrying me. The blood extraction machine continues running, but my heart has already stopped beating. The affection I see in his eyes has never been for me. He's always looking through me at someone else. Everyone in the world loves Claire, and Byron is not the exception that I foolishly believe him to be. That grand wedding is nothing but an ugly duckling's self-deceiving fantasy.
