In a world of forgotten memories and lethal secrets, Anastasia Moreau fights for survival. Awakening in a sinister laboratory with no recollection of her past, she escapes, only to be taken under the wing of a notorious killer who molds her into an assassin. Her goal: ascend the ranks within the elusive assassin organization known as RACQI, all while unraveling the secrets of her own lost memories.

Her flaw threatens to shatter her dream until a final chance arises: an assignment to eliminate Valerian Vincenzo Vanguardia, the prime minister's formidable son. A task laced with complications, for Valerian possesses otherworldly abilities and a personality that clashes with everything Anastasia stands for. When a series of gruesome murders entangles them with Ambrose Riese, the youngest scion of the powerful Spes Lawfirm, the trio forms an uneasy alliance to confront a rising tide of chaos.

As darkness threatens to consume them, they must navigate treacherous paths, facing inner demons and forging unlikely alliances. The lines blur between heroes and villains as they battle not only external threats but also the shadows within themselves. Ana's journey becomes a thrilling odyssey of redemption, truth, and justice, leading her to question whether she can triumph over her past or risk becoming something far more sinister. The fate of a fractured world hangs in the balance, and Ana's choices will determine whether she rises as a hero or succumbs to the darkness. Prepare for a saga where alliances shift, allegiances blur, and the past casts a haunting shadow on an uncertain future.

Ana

As Valerian held his delicate fingers gently against her trembling lips, their eyes locked in a shared moment of intensity. The cramped closet seemed to disappear as they stood close, their breaths synchronized in the dim light. With a soft, whispered tone, he urged, "Shhh, be quiet."

His warm breath brushed against her ear, sending shivers down her spine. She nodded, her heart pounding with anticipation

Ana's back was pressed against the door while Valerian's body was pressed dangerously against her.

Ana could hardly believe how close they were, their bodies almost touching in the small closet. Her gaze was fixed on his face, her eyes tracing the serious lines etched across his brow. 

Valerian seemed unbothered by their close proximity. He wore a stern and concentrated expression, his eyes narrowed as he strained to listen to the faint sounds outside the closet.
