UNMASKING FATE
Mafia the air heavy with tension. Seraphina, determined and desperate, had managed to lure Lucien outside under the pretence of needing fresh air. She walked with purpose, her heels clicking against the marble floor as Lucien followed, intrigued by her sudden change in demeanour.
As they reached the secluded garden, Seraphina turned to face Lucien, her eyes filled with a mix of defiance and vulnerability. "Thank you for bringing me here," she said softly.
Lucien stepped closer, his gaze intense. "Why do I feel like you're up to something?"
Seraphina smiled faintly. "Maybe because I am."
Before Lucien could react, she swiftly moved behind him, a cloth soaked in chloroform in her hand. She pressed it against his face, and he struggled for a moment before his body went limp. Saraphina's heart pounded in her chest as she signalled to her accomplice, who emerged from the shadows to help carry Lucien to a waiting car.
Lucien slowly regained consciousness, the world coming into focus in a dimly lit, unfinished building. He was tied to a chair, his head throbbing. As he lifted his gaze, he saw Saraphina standing before him, holding a gun. Her long, black hair descended over her shoulders, framing her bold, oceanic eyes that glinted with fierce determination.
"Damn," Lucien thought, despite the situation. "She's beautiful. Who is she?"
Saraphina's voice was steady, though her heart raced. "I need you to take me to Lucien Salvatore."
Lucien smirked, hiding his surprise. "And you think this is the way to do it?"
Saraphina's eyes narrowed. "I don't care what you think. You're going to help me, whether you like it or not."
Lucien leaned back, his eyes never leaving hers. "You're braver than I thought. But you have no idea what you're getting into."
Seraphina stepped closer, her grip on the gun tightening. "Then enlighten me."
The tension in the air was palpable, their fates now intertwined in a dangerous dance of power and desire.
Seraphina Devereux is the cherished yet rebellious daughter of Vincent Devereux, a man whose empire is built on fear, power, and unyielding control.

When Vincent arranges her marriage to Allaire Moretti, a notorious and dangerous figure in the underworld, Seraphina's defiance reaches its breaking point. Trapped in a web of family loyalty and ruthless ambition, she knows she must escape before she becomes a pawn in a perilous game.
Desperation leads her to the one man who can challenge even her father's formidable influence-Lucien Salvatore.

His return to New York is driven by a personal vendetta, and his presence sends ripples of fear and fascination through the city's elite.

Lucien, intrigued by her audacity and beauty, sees an opportunity not just for power, but for a rare partnership in his relentless quest for revenge.
In a world where alliances are fragile and betrayal is a constant shadow, Seraphina and Lucien must navigate a labyrinth of deceit, passion, and danger.

And can Lucien protect Seraphina from the enemies that encircle them both, while pursuing his ruthless agenda?
