Ariana glaubte nicht an Märchen. Nicht in einer Welt, in der goldene Käfige glänzen und Dornen sich wie Versprechen um das Herz liegen. Doch dann traf sie ihn. Zac: Gefährlich, verboten, vollkommen. Mit einem Blick brachte er ihre Welt zum Beben. Mit einer Berührung ließ er sie vergessen, wem sie gehörte. Aber Liebe hat ihren Preis. Und in ihrer Welt zahlt man ihn mit Blut. Zwischen Macht und Verrat, zwischen Freiheit und Pflicht beginnt Ariana zu erkennen, dass selbst der zarteste Flügelschlag ein Sturm sein kann, wenn er für die falsche Liebe schlägt. Ein Schmetterling, der zu fliegen wagt. Ein Mann, der sie retten will oder brechen. Und ein Kuss, der alles verändert. ⸻

“Are you going to treat me like the enemy?” Raffaele asked, hovering over me like a predator. “You are the enemy,” I sneered. He smiled. “Careful.

Three months before my wedding, I found my fiancé buried deep inside my maid of honor. ​I gave Leo five years of my life. I ironed his shirts, managed his stress, and sacrificed my own dreams to build our perfect future. My reward? Standing in the doorway of our bedroom, listening to him call me "boring" while he ruined our bed with my best friend. ​Shattered, humiliated, and completely alone, I ran out into the freezing, torrential rain with nothing but the clothes on my back. I thought my life was over. I thought I had hit rock bottom. ​Until a massive black umbrella blocked out the storm, and a heavy, expensive suit jacket was draped over my trembling shoulders. ​Alexander. Leo’s incredibly wealthy, terrifyingly ruthless Godfather. ​He is older. Untouchable. The most feared man in the city and the patriarch who controls Leo’s entire inheritance. He is the ultimate forbidden fruit. ​He didn't look at me with pity as I sat bleeding and broken on the pavement. He looked at me with a dark, consuming hunger that made my breath hitch. Kneeling in the wet street, he wiped a tear from my jaw and whispered a promise that would change my life forever: ​"Tell me who did this to you, and I will ruin his life by morning." ​I only wanted a place to dry off. I only wanted a little bit of revenge. I never meant to let him back me against the marble counters of his penthouse. I never meant to crave his rough hands, his possessive growls, or the intoxicating danger of his bed. ​If Leo’s family finds out, it will destroy Alexander’s empire. ​But once the Godfather claims you... there is no going back.

Victor Alvares—ang malamig at walang-awang CEO ng isa sa pinakamalalaking kumpanya sa bansa. Isang pangalan na sapat na para manginig ang buong siyudad. Sa isang salita niya, bumabagsak ang mga negosyo; sa isang desisyon, nasisira ang mga reputasyon. Ngunit sa kabila ng kapangyarihang iyon, may isang laban siyang natalo—ang panatilihin ang babaeng minsang naging mundo niya. Si Elera Alvares, ang ex-wife niyang kasing talino at kasing-yaman niya sa industriya, ay ang babaeng iniwan niya sa katahimikan kapalit ng ambisyon. Trabaho ang pinili ni Victor, at sa bawat gabing wala siya, unti-unting naubos ang pagmamahal ni Elera—hanggang sa tuluyan itong bumitaw. “I’ll do anything to make you mine again, Elera—and I’ll make sure of that.” Handa siyang gawin ang lahat—gamitin ang kapangyarihan, impluwensya, at kahit ang sarili niyang dilim—para mabawi ang loob ni Elera at mapasakanya muli. Sa muling pagharap nila sa isa’t isa, magsisimula ang isang laban. Isang laban kung makukuha niya pang muli ang babaeng mahal niya, o kung ang galit at tensyon ang tuluyang mananaig at wawasak sa pagitan nila.
