🖤 VEIL OF SMOKE 🖤
I never planned to forgive.
Never imagined a way out.
But the past doesn’t stay buried—it rises like smoke, choking everything in its path.
Chicago’s streets are full of shadows.
I’ve spent my life tracking down every trace of the Caldera Syndicate, but nothing could have prepared me for Dario Valtieri. A smuggler, a man haunted by guilt, and someone whose charm hides a storm of darkness I can’t resist.
He’s not my ally.
He’s not my enemy.
But I’m tangled in his world now, and I don’t know how to get out.
The shipment isn’t just weapons—it’s a trap. And when Dario’s old crew, led by the deadly Enzo, moves to take it, everything spirals into chaos.
I should hate him.
I should use him.
But the more I dig, the more I realize we might be fighting the same battle—for our pasts, for revenge, and for something more dangerous than either of us ever expected.
This isn’t just about survival.
It’s about facing the truth.
And when it’s all over, one of us will walk away… but I wonder if I’ll be strong enough to leave him behind.
Because when the smoke clears, the only thing I’ll have left is the choice between vengeance and a chance at something new.
