Prologue

In the heart of a city that never slept, shadows moved with a life of their own. Among these shadows lived a girl who had once been nameless and invisible. She had grown up in the cracks of society, scraping by with whatever she could find, until one fateful night when the darkness embraced her in a new form.

The family of assassins who adopted her had no need for a daughter, but they saw potential in her sharp eyes and silent footsteps. They molded her into a weapon, a ghost in the night, and taught her the art of survival through blood and stealth. She became their secret, their blade, their daughter in all but name.

In a world parallel yet so far removed, a boy of privilege lived in a gilded cage. The son of a president, he was the picture of virtue and charm, raised by a father who believed in justice and law. Yet beneath his polished exterior lay a fractured soul, one that reveled in chaos and destruction. He commanded an empire of shadows, an underworld that thrived on the very laws his father upheld.

Their paths were destined to cross.

On a moonlit night, where the boundaries between right and wrong blurred, she found herself on a mission that would change everything. Her target: a man whose reputation was as pristine as his heart was black. As she drew closer, she realized the threads of their lives had been entwining for years, pulling them inexorably towards a confrontation neither could escape.

In the dance of shadows and light, love and hate, they would find themselves drawn to one another, each recognizing the darkness in the other's soul. In a world where loyalty was bought and sold, where trust was a commodity rarer than gold, they would discover that sometimes, the greatest enemy is the one who understands you best.

As the city breathed around them, two hearts, forged in darkness and deceit, began their inevitable collision. And in that collision, a story of twisted love and ruthless ambition was born.

Welcome to their world.
