She was a young mother trapped in a world of violence, forced into marriage with the heir of a powerful family. Years of captivity made her an observer—of power, strategy, and the city's darkest secrets. When chaos struck, she took her chance, vanishing into the night with her child and a new purpose.

Now, a silent force reshapes the city's landscape. A mysterious faction is dismantling the old ways, offering protection to the vulnerable and striking fear into those who exploit them. But something sinister is happening at Cornell University—young women are vanishing, and no one seems to care. She’s done watching from the shadows. It’s time to step into the light and uncover the truth, even if it means walking straight into enemy territory.
