In her former life, Elena paid the price for trusting Dante—after her brother Adrian died saving him, Dante repaid her with betrayal, abuse, and death. Now reborn at the exact moment Adrian falls, she makes a choice no one expects: she asks Nico, Dante’s silent bodyguard, to marry her. Dante responds with rage, shaming Nico and sending him to die, while his mother and sister rush to strip Elena of her family’s assets. But the man they dismissed is no ordinary guard; Nico is the hidden heir of the powerful Vale mafia family. When he uncovers the Moretti family’s crimes, Dante loses his fiancée and his reputation, and the whole corrupt house comes crashing down. Justice follows, Elena gets back what was stolen, and six months later she marries Nico as he helps her reclaim her business and her future.
