Zolani Moretti has spent her entire life inside a golden cage. Protected. Controlled. Watched. Her older brother, Alessandro Moretti, is powerful, feared, and impossibly strict-determined to keep her safe from a world she knows nothing about. But Zola is tired of being locked away. She wants freedom. She wants to live. And for the first time, she's ready to fight for it. Then there's Dante Russo. Alessandro's right-hand man. His closest ally. The one person Zola can't stand... and can't seem to stay away from. Arrogant. Reckless. Infuriating. Dangerous. When a hidden enemy from the past resurfaces-one who knows exactly how to destroy the Moretti empire-Zola becomes the target. And suddenly, the world she's been kept from is the very thing hunting her down. Secrets unravel. Loyalties are tested. And the line between hate and something far more dangerous begins to blur. Because in an empire built on shadows... Nothing is ever safe.

Hérése is a good, mature, and understanding child. But following a trauma during his childhood he became silent and distant, despite psychiatric sessions, nothing improved.

: Gratitude in Blood "You should be grateful." Those were the last words Elara Von Steiger heard before her husband, Julian Blackwood, pulled the trigger, executing her on the orders of her own father. For years, Elara had been the "perfect" daughter—sacrificing her education, her inheritance, and her soul to satisfy a family that viewed her only as a biological asset. Then, the world resets. Elara wakes up twenty-four hours before the frame-up that destroyed her life. But she isn't the broken girl they remember. Gifted with the cold clarity of a woman who has already felt the sting of death, she decides that if her family wants her to be "grateful," she will show them the mercy of a quick end. However, the timeline has shifted. Julian Blackwood, the cold, distant husband who murdered her, is now inexplicably obsessed with her. He isn’t just watching her; he’s hunting her enemies for her. When Elara discovers that Julian is a "leaper"—a man who has lived through a hundred timelines trying to save her from a global conspiracy—the game changes. From the high-stakes boardrooms of London to the ancestral castles of Germany, Elara and Julian enter a volatile alliance built on blood and burning desire. To dismantle the Iron Rose—the shadow organization led by her own parents—Elara must become a more ruthless killer than the ones who hunted her. In a world where memories are weapons and love is a death sentence, Elara is no longer playing for survival. She’s playing for fire, for vengeance, and for the one man who loved her enough to kill her. This time, they should be grateful she let them live this long.

"In the novel The Rose of the Empire, Duchess Evelyn was a cruel beauty destined to die at the hands of her husband, the 'Monster Duke' Alaric.

Five years ago, she had everything—a love so deep, so certain, she believed nothing could ever break it. ‎Until he did. ‎The moment he found out she was pregnant, he walked away… leaving her with questions, heartbreak, and a silence she could never understand. ‎Because what they had was real. ‎Or at least, she thought it was. ‎Now he’s back. ‎Determined. Persistent. Acting like he never stopped loving her… like walking away was never meant to be the end. ‎But she remembers the way he left. ‎The way he chose to disappear when she needed him the most. ‎So no matter how hard he tries— ‎No matter how much he wants to explain— ‎She refuses to give him the chance to hurt her again. ‎Yet, the more he fights for her, the more her walls begin to shake… and the more she’s forced to confront the truth she’s been avoiding: ‎If he never loved her… ‎why does it still feel like he does? ‎And if he did… ‎then why did he leave?

[SYSTEM NOTIFICATION: You have died a violent death.] [CURRENT LOCATION: Floor 0 (The Lobby)] [GOAL: Reach Floor 100.] [REWARD: One Wish. One Life.] The man that she loved betrayed her without a word of explanation, just a useless apology accompanying a bloody knife and the endless repeating, screaming question in her head: "Why?" Then she woke up. Somewhere worse. Welcome to the Backrooms: an endless maze of humming fluorescent lights and damp, yellowed wallpaper. In this liminal purgatory, the dead don’t rest, and the broken don’t stay human for long. One hundred floors. One chance to come back. Fail, and she’s gone forever. She doesn't want peace. She doesn't want a second chance. Her one wish is his last breath signed over to her.
