The story starts in the busy city of Hong Kong, where Ruth Lee is leading a life of privilege, replete with all the luxuries and protection provided by her powerful Mafia family. She suspects something is wrong, but the truth comes crashing down when, after a family argument, Ruth wakes up to a house full of dead servants and her family nowhere to be found.

Scared and desperate at first, Ruth finds, behind a hidden safe left by her father, an address in Seoul, South Korea; a credit card; and papers so she could travel. She finally settled in South Korea out of necessity in search of her answers. On landing, it is Frank Xia, a very-feared Mafia lord previously associated with the mafia family. Frank, owing to old debts to her father, agrees to help Ruth find her family-but only if she proves capable of surviving the brutal world of the Mafia.

As Ruth trains with Frank and his crew, she learns about her secret Mafia lineage and all the power dynamics that come with it. It is a tough, grueling training that pushes her to her limits, but slowly, Ruth morphs from pampered princess into Mafia heiress. The complication in their mission would be the budding attraction between Ruth and Frank, and as their feelings for each other deepen, so does their determination to find her family-and to unmask the formidable foes against them.

On her way, Ruth faces betrayal, dark secrets, and surprising alliances. Now she's supposed to learn her way with a world she never understood, and the dark legacy of her family. Tension between her and Frank heightens while running life-threatening missions, and a passionate romance blooms in the midst of chaos. But the road to the future is filled with perils, as Ruth's uncle, a powerful Mafia baron with a deep-seated grudge against her family, seeks to destroy everything they've built.

I thought of that for a moment, then nodded my head. If that was what my boss required, then so be it.

"That would be tomorrow, boss," I asked, then looked at my watch to confirm what time it was. Saw the mistake and then added, "Sorry, today. It's five minutes past zero hundred hours already."

And with that, I got up. If the boss was angry about something and did not wish to discuss it, then it was best left alone. It was best to leave Frank alone for the time being. I would deal with that side of things later.

"See you later, boss," I said, leaving Frank's room.

Frank had completed his beer, was lying on the bed with his hands placed behind his head and gazing at the ceiling. He closed his eyes, and the only thing that went through his mind was the past.

I hated remembering the past because that segment formed me into the individual that I had become.
