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.

It stayed in my mind like a scar. Her expression was completely blank. She turned her head away from me, refusing to meet my eyes. There were no tears in her eyes and no hesitation in her movements. She just let them take me.
