They say opposites attract. Yet, Raffaele and Edwina avoid each other like the plague.

They are each other’s equilibrium, just as fire needs air, just as heat demands the cold. They know it, but they fight it. Raffaele Marcello is the undisputed King of the Italian Mafia. A ghost in the underworld, ruthless and untouchable. One look in his eyes, and you’re as good as dead. He is a killer who has carved away parts of himself just to survive.

But to touch her is to invite scars—she burns, and she does not regret it. Different paths. Twisted fate. A collision inevitable.
