In a world ruled by blood and betrayal, corruption is the only thing worth falling for.
Enzo
When the fortune teller said I’d meet a devil in a red dress, I laughed it off.
I never expected it to be her.
Althea is trouble wrapped in silk and fire, sent to upend everything I thought I knew about my mother’s death.
Helping her means exposing the traitor hiding in my own ranks—the thief who’s been bleeding me from the inside.
But the fortune teller left out a few details.
Like how she would make my cold, black heartbeat again.
How I would crave her like a drug I could never get clean from.
I was the incorruptible enforcer—the man no one could touch.
Until she touched me.
Until she corrupted me.
Althea
I know who he is the moment our eyes meet, Death in human form
The fortune teller warned me death was coming—and that I shouldn’t fear him.
I should embrace him.
Trust him to protect me, even against his own instincts.
Enzo is a man who believes in blood and loyalty -family above all else.
When my search for truth leads him to discover secrets from his own past,
He has to make a choice.
I came searching for my brother, but I found him instead—the man who stole my heart with a kiss and set my skin ablaze with a single touch.
Enzo was supposed to be my salvation, but I fear he could just as easily be my end.
Because once he claims my heart, there will be no taking it back.
