Ema’s life was never kind.
Sold by her own mother to pay off a debt, she is dragged into the world of the mafia, believing her life is over the moment she stands before Derek, a feared mafia alpha with a ruthless reputation.
But instead of cruelty, she finds protection.
As Ema struggles to survive her new life, she discovers she is being hunted for a reason she doesn’t understand. The truth shatters everything she knows—she is a Virex, a rare and dangerous being capable of absorbing a werewolf’s power with a single touch.
Trapped between enemies, secrets, and a fate she never chose, Ema must learn to survive under the grip of a mafia alpha who is far more connected to her destiny than she ever imagined.

I stood by my car and watched Ema walk away. Her back was perfectly straight and her steps were quick, showing a kind of confidence that I found both annoying and impressive. I let out a soft chuckle, but the sound felt bitter in my throat. She still moved like she owned the entire world, even when she was clearly running away from it. It was a reminder that she still had her strength while everything around me was falling apart.


I turned my back on her and headed toward my own car. My black SUV was parked right near the school gate, standing out among the smaller cars of the students. I leaned my back against the warm metal of the hood and waited for Lily to appear. The afternoon sun was bright and warmed my skin, but it didn't make me feel any better. The air felt heavy around me, like a storm was coming that I couldn't stop.
