In a world where everyone seeks salvation and redemption, lives a man who loathes those concepts to his core. Some know him as Xavier Kane, the corporate raider who collects companies like pebbles; some know him as the messenger of death who lords over a reputable and highly structured hitman company; some know him as Dr. Andrea, the best cosmetology surgeon in Italy. 

To Alessia, he was just the puppy-faced Giovanni she fell in love with at first sight, and Xavier would do anything to keep it that way.

Xavier knows damn well he shouldn't ask for more, he didn't deserve it, but her stubborn pout and her innocent innuendo cause friction that soon turns to sizzling heat.

How long can Xavier play the cute boy next door when inside him lives the greatest evil, the dirtiest secrets, and the kinkiest acts?

Alessia, a girl who had to become a mother to her two siblings at the age of eleven after witnessing her mother's horrible death, just got out of a toxic relationship, jobless and broken.

Weeks later, she gets a 'miraculously' job with Xavier Kane, the vile billionaire she came to despise for his dubious acts. When she finds out her gentleman was the same man she hated the most,  she is very pissed.

“What's wrong with me being a bad guy? Why don't you just be my good girl instead?”

" I was home when it started that night. I ran away, Alessia, and you know what happened next. All because I just ran away like a coward!"

"Matteo, please calm down," Alessia begged.

She thought she had successfully kept her siblings away from the bane that frustrated her entire existence. She was wrong, but she couldn't think of that now. She still had Lisa to protect. Lisa didn't know much about their father or anything about their mother's death, and Alessia wanted to keep it that way.

"Matteo, please, let's talk inside," Alessia said as tears pooled in her eyes. Over and over, she had beaten herself up for just watching and doing nothing, and it haunted her to this day.

Matteo stormed out of the house, and Alessia ran after him. Catching up with him, she hugged him from behind, and the dam tore open. As she cried, she apologized, choking on her words.
