The Viridescent Crown

Azalea Steffani Leandra adalah seniman muda berbakat yang menjalani hidup sederhana dan teratur hingga suatu malam kejadian yang tak terduga pun terjadi, tanpa sengaja dan tanoa diminta ia menjadi saksi pembunuhan di galeri tempatnya bekerja. Pelaku pembunuhan itu adalah Lucas Zander Maxime, bos mafia dingin dan berkuasa dari keluarga paling ditakuti, The Obsidian Crown. Dalam dunia Lucas, satu aturan tak pernah dilanggar: saksi harus dihilangkan. Namun, aturan itu runtuh ketika Lucas teringat permintaan terakhir ayahnya yang sekarat—melindungi seorang wanita bernama Azalea, tanpa alasan dan tanpa penjelasan, hanya peringatan bahwa jika Azalea mati, semuanya akan hancur. Maka alih-alih membunuhnya, Lucas memilih menyandera Azalea, mengawasinya dari dekat, dan diam-diam melindunginya. Keputusan ini sekaligus ia manfaatkan untuk menolak perjodohan yang telah diatur keluarganya dengan Seraphina Caldwell, pewaris keluarga mafia ternama The Crimson Veil. Kepada dunia mafia, Lucas menyatakan ia memilih wanita biasa daripada wanita berdarah mafia. Namun kebenaran tidaklah seperti itu, perlahan semuanya terungkap dan jauh lebih berbahaya daripada yang dibayangkan. Jejak masa lalu, dokumen tersembunyi, dan nama yang dihapus dari sejarah keluarga Caldwell mengarah pada satu kenyataan mengejutkan: Azalea adalah pewaris sejati keluarga Seraphina Caldwell—putri yang selama ini dinyatakan hilang dan sengaja disembunyikan demi melindunginya dari dunia mafia. Lucas baru menyadari kebenaran itu setelah ayahnya meninggal, memahami bahwa perintah melindungi Azalea adalah amanat terakhir yang krusial. Seiring waktu, tugas perlindungan berubah menjadi ikatan terlarang yang dipenuhi hasrat, ketakutan, dan pengkhianatan. Azalea jatuh hati pada pria yang seharusnya ia takuti—penyelamat sekaligus ancaman. Sementara itu, The Crimson Veil tak akan menerima penolakan perjodohan dan siap menumpahkan darah untuk merebut kembali pewaris mereka. Di tengah kekerasan dan rahasia kelam, Azalea harus memilih: melarikan diri dari takdir, atau menerima kebenaran tentang dirinya dan pria berbahaya yang berdiri di sisinya.

I am Ivy Blackthorne, the Luna of the Graystone pack and a princess of the White Wolf royalty. Tomorrow, when the full moon rises, I will personally place the heirloom upon my nine-year-old pup, Lucas Gowling, as both his mother and Luna. Lucas is not only my pup with my Alpha mate, Alexander Gowling, but he is also the Child of Prophecy foretold to lead the Graystone pack to glory. For nine years, I have believed that moment will be the most perfect in my life. But three minutes ago, I caught a faint yet chillingly bitter scent in my breakfast. It is wolfsbane, a rare poison that can kill wolves. My blood runs cold. Who would poison my food? I force myself to stay calm and not react immediately. I lift my bowl and pretend to drink its contents, but I secretly pour it into a napkin under the table. A more terrifying thought forms in my mind—if my breakfast is poisoned, then what about Lucas' food? I shoot to my feet right away. Without even stopping to grab a coat, I rush toward the training grounds in the back of the mountains. Before I reach it, I hear Lucas' voice from the woods toward the north. "Mother, did I do well today? I watch her eat breakfast with my own eyes." I freeze like I was hit by a bolt of lightning. Trembling, I push aside the bushes, only to see someone unexpected standing there. It is Sophia Crow, Alexander's childhood sweetheart, whom he had supposedly cut off from his life long ago. She crouches slightly and wipes Lucas' sweat off his brow, her movements intimate and natural. "Very good. Just one more day. After the succession ceremony tomorrow, you won't need to call her 'Mother' anymore," says Sophia. Lucas replies, "I've grown tired of calling her Mother for a long time. If she dies, can I openly call you 'Mother'?" Sophia gently pulls Lucas into her arms. "Of course. You are my pup to begin with." In that instant, every breath I take feels suffocating. The pain is unbearable. The pup I raised for nine years is actually the illegitimate child of my mate and his childhood sweetheart.

Rainy nights in Sicelia were always thick with the stench of rust and gunpowder. Rumors had circulated that the newly appointed Don of the Romano family, one of the most powerful mafia clans, had been badly disfigured in a fire. His temper had grown brutal, and three fiancées had already been driven to terror. When the news reached the Deluca family estate, my so-called sister had collapsed in tears and begged me to take her place and honor the engagement. I had watched her act in silence before kicking her to the floor. I had said calmly, "When I was brought back into this family, you were afraid of losing your status. You rushed to secure the marriage alliance to protect your position. Now that your fiancé is disfigured and you can't bear to face that scarred monster, you want to shove me into the flames instead?" At that moment, my childhood sweetheart had burst through the door. He bent down and helped my fake sister to her feet, his concern plain to see. "Elena, don't be so ungrateful," he snapped. "This marriage was yours from the beginning. Now it's simply returning to its rightful owner. Tomorrow, I'll be holding a grand wedding with Rosa. As for you, you can obediently go and serve that monster." My parents had stormed in as well, pointing at me and cursing without restraint. As I looked at the selfish faces before me, I drew a slow breath. Resolve hardened in my eyes. "Fine," I had said quietly. "Then all of you can come down to hell with me."

On the day of her wedding, Elena Bianchi was left standing alone in a church. For the nineteenth time, Don Giovanni Rossi failed to appear. His excuse was the same as always—Lina was 'dying' again. This time, the humiliation went further. While Elena waited in her wedding dress, a video call arrived. On the screen, the lace veil her mother had left her—the one promise Elena had sworn to keep—was being torn apart by Lina’s dog as Lina laughed and urged it on. Giovanni followed with a careless apology. He promised to buy her a better one. That veil had been the last thing her mother ever gave her. Elena did not cry. She did not argue. Instead, she made a call no one in the Italian underworld dared to make. Seven years later, the Rossi family had fallen. Their power was gone. Their allies had turned away. And Giovanni—once untouchable—stood among the defeated, waiting to receive the Donna of the most powerful Mafia family. He never expected it to be Elena. Now married to Rafael Bellini, Elena was no longer the woman abandoned at the altar. She was Bellini’s Donna—calm, ruthless, and beyond his reach. The veil that had once been fed to a dog had become a crown. And the man who had destroyed her was now her enemy. In a world ruled by bloodlines, loyalty, and vengeance, Elena proved one unbreakable truth: A woman cast aside by a Mafia king did not disappear—she rose, and she returned as his reckoning.
