"Emerald Maree Pearce, a 25-year-old psychologist bestowed upon with an out-of-this-world beauty, screams the concept of elegance with her voluminous and bodacious features. 
Jordan Calix Kale, a 34-year-old man, however, wasn't considered just an ordinary man. Having been the almighty J.K, the Mafia Lord of the J.K empire, which happened to be the biggest, most prestigious, and most indomitable Mafia gang in all of the US and even more, he was insurmountable and the most feared human alive. But all of that is about to change when these two worlds clash over a rather spontaneous meeting, dangerous and erotic sparks are sure to fly."

　　Loneliness. Emptiness. Pain. Regret.


　　These four emotions and sentiments, each felt respectively, were enough to land someone in a mental asylum or drive someone crazy. But these emotions felt at the same time in such an astronomical amount, were enough to destroy a person, to kill a person.


　　That was the situation in which Emerald found herself within the dark and suffocating claws of her house. These emotions drove her to the edge, almost to the point of no return. They choked her with no hope of showing a tad bit of mercy.


　　She felt like the thin glass that was her life was being held up by a really thin thread that could and would snap any minute now. She could feel her sanity dangling from a thread so flimsy and debilitated. She was losing herself slowly but surely.
