Introduction

To win back his one true love, my husband sent me, pregnant and vulnerable, straight into the clutches of a rival mob's dungeon.
I was torn apart by vicious dogs, a brutal end for both me and my unborn child.
After death, my spirit drifted back home, only to hear him coldly chuckle, "Let her learn her lesson; she won't come back until she admits she was wrong."
It wasn't until a mangled, rotting body was dumped at his feet, and he saw the blood-soaked wedding ring on its finger, that this heartless mob boss finally snapped...

Chapter 1

The dungeon beneath the Luches estate reeked of blood and death.

I'd been locked down here for five straight days without a drop of water. Vivian's father, the head of the Luches family, stood outside the iron bars, hurling curses at me.

"The great Campbell princess? Arthur's wife?"

"You're nothing but a pathetic scapegoat! You hurt my daughter, and now you're gonna pay!"

At his command, the gate swung open.

Snarling dogs charged straight at me.

I wrapped my arms around my swollen belly, desperate to shield my baby. But it was too late—fangs tore through my flesh like paper.

I choked on my last breath, dying in agony. Two lives snuffed out in one.

As I died, my left hand clenched into a fist. The dogs had already ripped off several fingers, but my ring finger—the one wearing Arthur's wedding band—I'd kept tucked safely in my palm, untouched.

That ring was supposed to be his promise to me. Forever.

I thought death would be the end. Instead, my spirit peeled away from my mangled corpse and drifted back to the Campbell estate. Back to my home.

But the moment I walked through the door, I saw Vivian propped up in bed, her shoulder wrapped in pristine white bandages.

That was where I'd "accidentally" grazed her during the shootout between our families—pure self-defense.

And there was my husband, Arthur, the current head of the Campbell family, sitting at her bedside, gently blowing on a spoonful of soup before feeding it to her.

"Arthur..." Vivian lowered her lashes, squeezing out a few crocodile tears. "Maybe you should just bring Elena back. The Luches aren't exactly known for their hospitality. I'm worried she's suffering over there. Honestly, this is just a scratch—she shouldn't have to take the fall for me like this."

Arthur paused, spoon in midair, disgust flickering in his eyes.

"She doesn't deserve your sympathy." He set the bowl down and pulled Vivian into his arms. "She's been riding on Daddy's coattails her whole life, acting like she owns the place. Vicious as they come. You're too sweet and innocent to deal with someone like her. If I don't teach her a lesson now, she'll never learn to back off."

Vivian nestled against his chest, a smug smile tugging at her lips, though her voice stayed sickeningly meek. "But... what if she hurts me for what happened?"

"As long as I'm around, no one's gonna hurt you."

I floated there, watching the whole scene, wanting to laugh. But no sound came out.

Just then, the door burst open. Marcus, the Campbell family's second-in-command and once my father's most loyal man, rushed in looking frantic.

He didn't even glance at Vivian. He dropped to one knee in front of Arthur. "Boss, I'm begging you—bring the missus back! She's the old boss's precious daughter! The Luches are ruthless psychos. God knows what they've already done to her!"

Arthur's expression turned ice-cold. "Marcus, watch yourself. The Campbells and the Luches just signed a peace deal. Elena deliberately shot Vivian out of pure jealousy, trying to sabotage everything. She's poison. A little suffering will do her good."

"But boss..." Marcus's voice cracked. "That place is a death trap!"

"Enough." Arthur cut him off, annoyed. "Let her cool off in that cell for a few more days. Three days from now, send someone to pick her up."

Three days from now?

That's when it finally hit me.

This wasn't about the Luches family's rage or revenge. This was my husband—the man I'd fallen for at first sight ten years ago—giving them permission to use me as a punching bag for his precious Vivian.

He was still scheming, still playing puppet master, still expecting me to come crawling back.

But Arthur, you're never getting Elena back.

Because the wife you're so eager to "teach a lesson", is nothing but a rotting corpse right now.

Mara Kim has never belonged anywhere… until someone decided she did.
Thrown into Isteros Academy—a world of old money, blood money, and cruel social games—she's an outsider by birth and an afterthought by design. Her sister Solyn is the school's untouchable queen and Mara is her favorite target.
Everyone expects Atreus to treat his fiancée’s scholarship sister like everyone else does—as if she doesn’t matter.
Instead, his dorm room sits directly across from hers, close enough that she can see his light go out at night. Some nights, he climbs the old maintenance trellis just to check on her. He teaches her chess. He shows up exactly when something's gone wrong—and never once asks to be thanked for it.
"Don't fall in love with one piece," he warns her, over a board neither of them treats like a game anymore. "It punishes the person who only sees half of it."
Mara doesn't understand why the boy who's supposed to make her life harder keeps quietly making it easier—not until she realizes the anonymous stranger she's been writing to every week already has a name.
His.
He doesn't know he's writing to her, either.
By the time they find out, it's too late to stop what's already happening. Far too dangerous for anyone to find out.
In an empty studio, in the middle of a rainstorm, she asks him: 'Am I the kind of girl who kisses a boy engaged to my sister?'
He doesn't answer.
So she asks: 'What are we?’
He told her not to fall in love with one piece.

⬥ Keegan ⬥
I was sent to her.
To watch her. To protect her. And, when the order comes… to kill her.
My name is Keegan Caffery. I’m the Carter Mafia’s best hitman. I don’t miss. I don’t fail.
At least, I didn’t use to.
I don’t know what it is about her that got to me first—her mouth, her mind, or the way she looks at me like I’m not what she should fear.
I’ve had a gun to her head since I walked into her life.
She knows it.
And she still doesn’t run.
She just watches me back like she’s studying a problem she refuses to call impossible.
She’s the one variable I can’t control.
And God help me… I don’t want to.
I have an order. I have loyalty. I have a trigger.
But every time I imagine it—
I can’t stand it.
Her or me. That’s the math.
It’s a deadly equation I don’t want to solve.
⬥ Maisie ⬥
I’m not ordinary. I stopped pretending long ago.
My name is Maisie Seo. IQ 145. Clinical genius.
Which sounds impressive until you realize what it actually means: I don’t fit anywhere people expect me to.
I see patterns everywhere. Outcomes before they happen. People like equations I’ve already solved.
It gets lonely in a world you’ve already figured out.
So I dull myself down. Smoke the edges off. Pretend, badly, to be the kind of normal that lets people stay.
Then he walked in.
I knew what he was immediately. Dangerous. Intentional. Wrong in all the right ways.
I should be afraid of him.
I keep waiting for that to kick in.
Instead, I’m fascinated.
Because for the first time in my life… I’ve found something I can’t solve.
He is my deadly equation.
