C’est un monde où les secrets valent plus que l’or. Un monde où une ligne de code peut ruiner une vie, et où une balle peut la faucher en un instant.Je suis Lyana, une ombre, derrière un écran, une hackeuse de génie traquant les criminels les plus dangereux pour le compte d’une agence gouvernementale. Une trace de code qui disparaît aussitôt qu’il apparaît. Lui, c’est l’un d’eux. Un fantôme du crime organisé, un homme dont le nom ne figure sur aucun dossier officiel mais dont l’influence est tentaculaire. J’ai infiltré son empire numérique comme un fantôme, mais lui... lui, il m’a vue. Avant que je comprenne comment, j’étais dans sa cage dorée, sous sa surveillance, sous son contrôle. Je devais le faire tomber, par tomber amoureuse, ni à me donner entièrement à lui. Il était le danger, on m’a dit de fuir. J’ai choisi de rester. Il sait que je suis là pour le détruire. Et pourtant, il m’observe comme si j’étais la seule chose qui l’obsède. Ce jeu entre nous est un piège, et j’ignore encore qui tombera en premier.Ma mission était simple : le surveiller. Le piéger. Le livrer.Elias n’est pas le monstre qu’on me dépeint.Il est une cible. Une victime d’un complot bien plus vaste… et plus personnel. Je devais à tout prix prouver son innocence, pour qu’on puisse vivre notre histoire.Mais c’était plus complexe que je n’aurais imaginer, trop de mystère, et de secret à protéger… sans oublier, la soudaine disparition de ma sœur.La coupable ? Gabriella , mannequin célèbre, fille d’un homme puissant lié au crime organisé ... et folle amoureuse d’Elias. Prête à tout pour me briser.

“Breathe... Breathe Cassandra... Breathe...” She was about to give the best show of her life… But never did I imagine I was going to become the star of it. From the moment that our breaths mingled and our skins melted. She became the only reason that I breathed. MY ONLY DESIRE TO LIVE.

A life perfectly orchestrated by the hands of the ones that I thought I could trust. So I had a choice… I could lay my soul bare and let her slice me open… LOSE IT ALL. Or play it safe and obey the code by which we lived… Was it ever a question? Ever a decision that needed to be made? She was my blind desire. AND SHE WAS ABOUT TO TEACH ME HOW TO LOVE.

Vincenzo doesn't forgive. He doesn't forget. And he never, ever loses. When you spill Mancini blood, payment comes due—with interest. Stacy Salvatore should have been an easy target. The daughter of the man who slaughtered his mother and tried to burn his family empire to ash. His perfect revenge, gift-wrapped and delivered to his doorstep. He had it all planned out: take everything from her, break her spirit, and kill her. What he didn't plan for was her backbone of steel and eyes that burn with the same ruthless determination as his own. She's no cowering captive. She's a storm wrapped in human skin, fighting him with every breath, challenging the code he's lived by since childhood. With each clash between them, the lines blur. Enemy. Obsession. Addiction. Her defiance becomes the only thing that makes him feel alive, and the vengeance he's chased for years might just start tasting like ash in his mouth. But blood debt must be paid. In full.

Após o fim da Guerra Húmano-Bestial, ambas as partes acordaram que o mundo seria governado pelos Híbridos. A cada cem anos, realiza-se um Pacto de Sangue: quem primeiro der à luz um Híbrido, esse será o líder da próxima geração da Aliança Híbrida. Na vida passada, escolhi casar-me com o primogênito da Tribo Lobo, famoso por sua devoção amorosa, e fui a primeira a lhe dar um filho, o Híbrido Lobo Branco. Nosso filho tornou-se o próximo líder da Aliança Híbrida, e ele naturalmente obteve um poder imenso. Minha irmã, que se casou por cobiça à beleza do primogênito da Tribo Raposa, acabou por sofrer as consequências das constantes infidelidades dele, contraindo doenças e até mesmo perdendo a fertilidade. Movida pelo ciúme, minha irmã ateou fogo e matou a mim e ao pequeno Lobo Branco. Quando abri os olhos novamente, voltei ao dia do Pacto de Sangue, e minha irmã já havia se adiantado para deitar-se com Samuel, o primogênito da Tribo Lobo. Eu sabia que ela também havia renascido. Mas o que ela não sabia era que Samuel era de natureza cruel e violenta, longe de ser um bom partido!

Três dias antes do meu casamento, descobri que Shane Dawson havia mudado o local da cerimônia da casa da vovó Mae, no Sul, para o Castillo de Sol, o castelo espanhol que Tania Collins — sua antiga paixão de infância — adorava. Eu o confrontei, mas acabei ouvindo ele reclamar ao amigo: — Graças a Deus a Tania tem bom gosto. Caso contrário, eu seria motivo de piada pelo resto da vida. O amigo retrucou: — Você não prometeu que faria a cerimônia na casa da avó dela? Não tem medo que ela fique brava e se recuse a se casar? Shane apenas riu, com frieza e deboche. — Os Quinn estão à beira da falência. Casar comigo é a única saída dela. Ela não pode arriscar. Já pedi ao cerimonialista para ligar para ela. Aposto que agora ela está correndo pra trocar o vôo. A vergonha e a raiva queimaram no meu peito. Mordi o lábio, e no fim, fui embora. Três dias depois, o casamento no castelo aconteceu como planejado, só que eu não mudei o vôo. Eu não apareci. Em vez disso, estava no velho pátio da vovó Mae, me casando com outro homem. Até hoje, o Shane não entende. Eu nunca quis me casar com ele em busca de alguma "rota de fuga". Eu quis me casar por um amor que durou dez anos. Mas quando o sonho acaba, é preciso coragem para escolher outro caminho.
