BAND 1 : ABGESCHLOSSEN Roman Offizieller Trailer Link unten: 1. Instagram Link: https://bit.ly/3fvoXQS 2. Youtube Link: https://bit.ly/3v81ATG WARNUNG: Eine Achterbahnfahrt der Hassliebe und eine zu Tränen rührende Geschichte mit vielen Geheimnissen. Dylan Sterling, der jüngste und rücksichtsloseste Chef der Sterling Group, verfügt über besondere Kräfte, die den Konzern überragen. Geld, Ruhm und Intelligenz waren ein klarer Beweis für seinen Status in der Gesellschaft, der er angehört. Sein außergewöhnliches Talent diente einem verborgenen Zweck, und die von ihm beherrschte DUNKLE WELT war grausam. Er zeigte keine Gnade mit allen, die sich ihm in den Weg stellten, und verschlang alle, die versuchten, sich ihm entgegenzustellen. Savannah Schultz - 21 Jahre alt, ein Waisenkind, das zum Model wurde. Sie war mit Devin verlobt, nur um Unterstützung für das Familienunternehmen zu bekommen, das ihr Vater viele Jahre lang aufgebaut hatte. Später, nach dem Tod ihres Vaters, ging sie in den Süden. Und ihr Onkel Dalton Schultz adoptierte sie, um alles zu bekommen, was sie hatte, einschließlich Devins Hilfe. Devin hatte sie wie eine Sklavin an seinen Onkel Dylan verkauft - um den berüchtigten Mann um zusätzliches Kapital für sein Geschäft zu bringen. Dylan hatte sie verschlungen wie eine Schachtel Pralinen und sie wie ein Druckmittel behandelt. Sie spürte, wie sie aus dem Gleichgewicht geriet und in einen tiefen Abgrund stürzte. Wut, Traurigkeit, Scham - schwappten in ihr hoch und drohten, ihr Leben zu ruinieren. Um sich selbst vor der Demütigung zu bewahren, plante er, sie zu seiner Ehefrau zu machen, und versprach, ihr bei der Auflösung der Verlobung zu helfen und ihr Familienunternehmen zu unterstützen. Hilflos und gedemütigt nahm sie sein Angebot an. Sie begann, vor diesen Tyrannen stark zu werden, aber sie war schwach, wenn es um ihn ging. Sie lebten zusammen, behandelten sich aber wie Fremde. Er hatte nicht vor, sich in sie zu verlieben, denn vor ein paar Jahren hatte jemand sein Herz besetzt. Doch die Situation änderte sich, als er herausfand, wer sie wirklich war! Aber die dunkle Welt, die er beherrschte, drohte sie zu zerstören. Mysterium, Täuschung und Rache trieben sie beide an, gemeinsam aufzusteigen.

The shop, hidden away in a forgotten alley, is owned by a mysterious man known as Mr. Shen, The items in this shop aren't your ordinary goods—each one holds strange, magical powers or dark histories, and every trade comes with an unpredictable cost.

Soon, Liang Wei uncovers that Mr. Shen himself has a hidden agenda—he’s collecting these trades for an unknown, larger purpose that may have cosmic consequences.
