But Cassian doesn’t just want her professionalism — he wants all of her. He offers her a proposition she can’t refuse, a deal that blurs the line between business and pleasure. Elara is thrust into a whirlwind of passion, secrets, and power plays as she becomes the focus of Cassian's unrelenting obsession.

Elara must decide if she can handle the heat of his world or risk being burned alive by it. As their sinful desires consume them, betrayal and danger lurk in the shadows. Old rivals, jealous ex-lovers, and buried secrets rise to the surface, threatening to tear them apart. In a world where love and power intertwine, Elara will have to confront the most dangerous question of all: Can you truly love a man who owns you body and soul?

Damian Thorne, a 25-year-old struggling artist, leads an ordinary life in a bustling city—until the day he receives a mysterious letter from a long-forgotten relative. His estranged grandfather, a reclusive alchemist, has passed away, leaving Damian his secluded estate in the countryside. Intrigued, and with little to lose, Damian decides to visit the property, only to discover that his grandfather’s legacy is far more complex than he imagined. At the heart of the mansion is an ancient, hidden laboratory filled with cryptic notes and strange, alchemical equipment. Damian quickly learns that his grandfather was part of a secretive alchemical order dedicated to uncovering the Philosopher's Stone. His grandfather had been on the verge of a breakthrough—one that involved transmutation of not just metal, but reality itself. As Damian delves deeper into his grandfather's research, he starts experiencing strange occurrences. Time warps. Shadows move on their own. Old enemies of the order resurface, determined to seize the secrets Damian has inherited. To protect his life and the legacy of his family, Damian must master the forbidden knowledge of alchemy before it consumes him. In a race against time and enemies both seen and unseen, Damian discovers that the true power of alchemy is not in transmuting gold—but in unlocking the secrets of life, death, and the universe itself. However, every step he takes closer to mastering alchemy brings him closer to a dangerous truth: that some knowledge was never meant to be found.
