In Your Trap

When Lexton Alfacht discovers the man he killed in a brutal inter-organizational war was his own best friend, Gamaliel Vernon, guilt consumes him.
Haunted and isolated, Lexton is pulled from his grief by an unexpected visitor, Aurora Vernon, Gamaliel’s spirited younger sister, bearing a final letter and a wish: that Lexton protect her until she finds her own path.
Welcoming Aurora into his dark, secretive world, Lexton hides the truth of her brother’s fate and the criminal underworld they were both entangled in. But Aurora’s light begins to pierce through his shadows. Her warmth revives the mansion’s cold halls, and softens the man who thought he was beyond redemption.
As truths unravel and Aurora discovers the deadly truth about her brother and Lexton’s role in it, love battles with betrayal.
Torn between fleeing the man who shattered her world and staying with the one who’s become her only safe haven, Aurora must decide if forgiveness can bloom in the darkest soil.
