On the day I signed the divorce papers, I was ordered to leave with nothing. When I walked out of the Crane estate, I had twenty-six dollars in my wallet and nowhere safe to go. My phone was nearly dead when a message from an old classmate appeared on the screen, linking to a discreet placement notice. 【Seeking a live-in maternal figure for three children. Room, board, salary, and protection provided.】 I stopped at the word protection. A roof, a meal, and a place the Cranes could not reach me were already more than I had that night. The address led me to the iron gates of an old mansion on Chicago’s Gold Coast. Only after the butler opened the door did I learn who had placed the notice. Dante Bellandi. The Don of Chicago’s oldest Italian crime family. I had only wanted a place to stay. Somehow, I became the legal mother of the three Bellandi children and the contract wife of Dante Bellandi himself. Later, my ex-husband, Sebastian Crane, stood before me with the same careless arrogance and asked, “Do you realize you were wrong now?” Before I could answer, the triplets stepped in front of me. Little Livia clung to my leg, her eyes red. “My mom wasn’t wrong!” Her two brothers stood on either side of her, staring Sebastian down. Dante placed one hand at my waist, his voice calm enough to make the air turn cold. “Mr. Crane, my wife owes no explanation to a man who lost the right to speak to her.”

In a world where the sun has long vanished and eternal winter reigns, fire is condemned as the greatest forbidden power.The all-seeing Snow God rules the frozen world through colossal Snow Dragons, relentless guardians that patrol the skies, hunting down every trace of warmth and anyone guilty of the ancient sin known as fire. When young Lyra is struck by a deadly frost sickness, her father, Aldric, Lord of Winterfall, makes an impossible choice. Defying the Snow God's absolute law, he enters the forbidden ruins of an ancient civilization and awakens a forgotten flame. The fire saves Lyra's life—but at a devastating cost. As the Snow Dragons descend upon Winterfall, Aldric sacrifices himself so his daughter can escape. His final act awakens something far greater than anyone could have imagined. The Snow God has sensed the return of fire. An endless storm of Snow Dragons descends upon the city, reducing Winterfall to ice and ruin. Far away, a young noble named Kael, heir to the Darkhold, witnesses the destruction. Haunted since childhood by mysterious dreams of fire, he begins searching for the truth behind the world's greatest taboo. The deeper he investigates, the more he realizes that history itself may have been rewritten. Perhaps fire was never the true enemy. As Lyra grows older, she discovers that she is no ordinary survivor—she is the only person chosen by the fire itself. And now, the Snow God has turned its gaze toward her. Together, Lyra and Kael embark on a journey across the frozen world, pursued by the ruthless Ravok, the Snow God, and its relentless Snow Dragons. Their path leads them toward the legendary Hollow Sea, where long-buried secrets may finally be revealed. As the truth begins to emerge, Lyra realizes that what the Snow God fears most may not be fire itself—but humanity's ability to reclaim warmth, hope, and freedom. The battle between a god determined to preserve absolute order and the people destined to change the world has only just begun.

I’m the best art forger and intel specialist in Chicago. And I fell for the man who owned it all, Don Vincenzo Russo. For ten years, I was his secret, his weapon, and his woman. I built his empire from the shadows. I thought I’d get a ring. After all, every night he was in this city, he was buried inside me, taking his pleasure. He’d whisper that I was his, that no one else felt this good. But this time, after he was finished with me, he announced he was marrying the Russian Bratva princess, Katerina Petrov. That’s when I knew. I wasn’t his woman. I was just a body. For an alliance, for her, he sacrificed me. He left me to die. So I destroyed every piece of the life he gave me. I made one call to my father in Italy. And then, I vanished. But when the Don who owned Chicago couldn't find his favorite toy… he went insane.

My sister and I were reborn on the very day we were to be sent to the Demons as sacrificial vessels. That day, our husbands, the God of Water and the God of Fire, came to rescue us. However, this time, without any discussion, we made the same choice. We refused their rescue and willingly offered ourselves to the Demons. In our previous life, after they saved us, the Demons captured the God of Water's young apprentice as a replacement. In the end, she was flayed and had her bones torn out, dying a brutal and tragic death. Because of that, the God of Water and the God of Fire came to hate my sister and me deeply. They spread rumors that we were the Twin Blossoms of Ruin, destined to destroy the world, and forced us to the point where our souls were completely annihilated. When I opened my eyes again, my sister and I had returned to the moment when the Demons first captured us. We exchanged a glance and then announced in front of everyone, "We are willing to become the sacrificial vessels of the Dark Lord and the Demon King. Take us with you." The God of Water and the God of Fire left with their young apprentice, who was completely unharmed. They were relieved that they had finally protected the one they truly cared about. Only later did they realize their mistake, but by then, they were consumed with regret.

The Moretti shares, offshore trusts, and port revenue would all go to Noah, the boy I had raised with my own hands. The son Adrian had with Celeste, the woman he had loved before me. He had even chosen to be buried beside her, not me. That was when I finally understood. Ten years of marriage, and I was nothing but a replacement paving the way for his first love and their son.
