His Cunning Smile

✦ SYNOPSIS ✦



Title: His Cunning Smile



Zayden Vale is everything the world worships—powerful, wealthy, and devastatingly charming. His easy smile fools the public, but those who work under him know the truth. Beneath the kindness lies a calculating mind, a heart made of stone, and a narcissist who believes no one is worth his time. Nicknamed “The Fox,” Zayden destroys competitors with a smile on his face and never lets anyone close enough to touch him.



Elara Blake is the daughter no one sees. The youngest in a family that only values power and image, she’s spent her life being ignored—shipped to distant schools, kept out of the spotlight, and treated like a placeholder. When her family needs a favor from Zayden Vale, they send her—not out of trust, but because she’s expendable.



But Zayden sees her. Not for what she can offer, but for the flicker in her eyes—the quiet fire, the silent defiance. She doesn’t worship him like others do. In fact, she challenges him without saying a word.



To him, she becomes a game.

To her, he becomes a danger she never saw coming.



What begins as a strategic alliance turns into a tangled web of secrets, manipulation, and desires neither of them expected.

And when a narcissist falls in love… he doesn’t fall.

He claims.
