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. You’re hurting my feelings.” “I hope I can hurt much more than that.” His eyes darkened. “You forget—I’m the one who can break you.” I vowed never to give my heart to a man. Never let one bend me. Never let one own me. Then a single night changed everything. When my best friend became a target, I took her place and caught the attention of the most dangerous man in the city. Raffaele, My friend's older brother, wasn’t supposed to see me. We were never meant to meet but the moment his eyes locked on mine, I became his new obsession. I don’t bend and he doesn't let go.

In my past life, I was the fool who mistook a snake for a husband and a vulture for a best friend. I let them poison my father, steal my inheritance, and lock me away in a damp basement to rot while I was six months pregnant. I died in the dark, hungry and broken, watching the two people I trusted most wear my jewels and laugh at my misery. But death gave me a gift I didn't deserve, a second chance. I woke up back in 2023, standing at my father’s funeral with the taste of betrayal still fresh on my tongue. The world thinks I am the same grieving, " soft rich girl they can drug into submission.

With the mysterious and powerful Derek Hamilton watching from the shadows, I have to decide: how far am I willing to go for revenge? Can I truly win and find a happy life, or will the thorns I have grown to protect myself eventually pierce my own heart?

They reject me. Yet the bond refuses to break. Dragged into their world of power and vengeance, I’m forced into a dangerous game where obsession burns hotter than hatred. Their touch makes me weak, their wolves refuse to let me go, and secrets from the past whisper that my curse is more powerful than anyone knows. Two Alphas. One cursed mate. And a prophecy that says I’ll either unite them—or destroy us all.

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.

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.
