Adeline Smith's life took a sudden and dangerous turn when her grandmother’s will named her as the sole heir to her massive fortune, leaving her uncle with nothing. But the rules that came with the inheritance only made her a target, as her uncles would stop at nothing to claim what they believed should have been theirs.

When one of her uncle’s murderous schemes left her gravely wounded and on the edge of death, she was found by Enzo Laureati, an annoying, yet breathtakingly handsome man. What she did not know was that Enzo was no ordinary man—he was a vampire prince who had abandoned his world and royal duties to live among humans just for fun.

The moment he saw Adeline, he knew she was his mate, as his heart that had remained dormant for hundreds of years suddenly began beating. But despite knowing what she meant to him, he felt no love or attachment toward her. 

Out of curiosity, Enzo saved Adeline’s life and proposed an unusual deal: he would become her fake fiancé, help her expose her uncles for trying to murder her, and secure her inheritance. But he didn't propose this deal because he wanted to help her, but because he was simply bored. Adeline agreed, unaware of the chaos that was about to come her way.

At first, their partnership was nothing more than a random deal. Living with Enzo wasn’t easy, as he was infuriatingly confident, annoyingly flirty, and had a knack for driving her crazy with his nonchalant attitude. 

When Adeline finally discovers who Enzo truly is, will she see him as a monster or the man who had always protected her from her uncles? And will Enzo be able to embrace their mate bond, or will secrets tear them apart?

The tall double doors that led into the council room opened and Petrov stepped in first, walking slowly with his hands clasped behind his back as he approached the large round table at the center of the room. Behind him, Julian, the youngest council member, followed hesitantly. His small frame was almost completely hidden behind Petrov's taller one.

At the head of the table, Damien was already seated, and as Petrov and Julian took their seats, he inclined his head slightly in greeting. "Petrov."

His eyes shifted to Julian, giving him a small nod. "Hello, Julian."

Julian sank deeper into his chair, waving timidly. "Hello, Lord Damien," he murmured, barely audible.

Just as the doors were about to fully close, it stopped for a second before swinging open again, and Argilia strode in.
