Our marriage is for our conveniences But where is the line that crosses it for chaos? When it is time to call it off. --------------------------------------------------------------- Amanda and Ethan have been secretly arranged married since their early 20s. They have been amicably getting along with their own terms. Purely in business, no strings attached. Years passed. Things happened. People died. Everyone grew up and settled in. Amanda believed it is time to end this. She is ready to live out of Ethan’s shadows. It is the most significant part of their agreement. That someday this will end. “Our divorce or annulment will be a piece of cake when the time comes…” But suddenly her ever good-nature estranged husband went crazy. He demanded a very ridiculous condition. Serve him her ONE TRUE LOVE. Lottery is way easier than that condition. Now, Amanda made it to her priority list to convince Ethan to divorce her even if it takes her to cross the lines they drew against each other. But on every line they crossed, everything starts getting messy. Well, maybe it is time for renegotiation. They both don’t get ahead on “messy”.
Two men. One secret queen. And a city ready to burn for her. Isabelle Moretti is a brilliant Manhattan psychologist by day—and the ruthless leader of the underground syndicate known as ‘96 by night. No one suspects the elegant doctor is also pulling strings in the shadows, not even her occasional lover: Derek Monroe, a rising star in politics with deep ties to the Bloods and enough power to make enemies disappear. For him, '96 was just a well-oiled extension of his domain—until now. Because someone from Isabelle’s past just walked back into her life. Dimitri Volkov—the son of her father’s deadliest rival and the man who once broke her heart—has returned. To the world, he's a Russian heir with a deadly reputation. To Isabelle, he’s the boy who stole her innocence, only to betray her in a cruel game of alliances. But Dimitri never truly let her go. He watched her rise, grow, and dominate... and now he’s come to reclaim what he always believed was his. When Derek demands to meet the elusive "Isy" and finds Isabelle in her place, the chessboard explodes. Neither man knew the other existed in her world—until now. And both want her. All of her. Trapped between loyalty and lust, obsession and survival, Isabelle must play the most dangerous game of all: keep control over two kings who refuse to be pawns. If power is an illusion and love a weapon, what happens when the queen stops playing by the rules?

A surgeon of rare precision and biting wit, he’s made a life out of exhaustion—operating through sleepless nights, dodging reporters, and deflecting every hint of sympathy with sarcasm.

His brother, Alessio, the Chief of Police of Naples, has sworn to purge the city’s streets of the rot that festers beneath them.

When a midnight drive turns into a collision with the underworld, Ciris is forced into the service of men who wear their power like tailored armor.
