Synopsis
A prince who wants to disappear. An assassin who doesn't know she's working for him. A masquerade that hides more than just faces. The invitation arrives without a sender. Four names. No instructions. Just a time, a place, and the unshakable feeling that once they step in, there's no way out. Red has spent years perfecting the art of staying in the shadows—efficient, untraceable, and always in control. Until one reckless decision forces her into a game she didn't sign up for. The target? A missing prince. The catch? He's the one who hired her. Dalia never wanted to get involved. But when she receives an invitation wrapped in secrecy, she realizes she's already part of something much bigger. The past she buried is clawing its way back, and the people she trusted might be the ones pulling the strings. With hidden agendas, shifting alliances, and a deadly masquerade looming, nothing is as it seems. And when the masks come off, survival won't be about strength—it'll be about knowing who to trust before it's too late. The game has begun. And not everyone will make it out alive.

Chapter 1 - Prologue

Six people. Six different paths. Only one end. 

 The city hums with secrets, whispered through the halls of power and the alleys of the damned. A prince shackled by duty, an assassin bound by love and respect, a man running from his past, and a woman who might just be involved. In the shadows of Hotel Belmond, fates tangle, betrayals unfold, and survival is a gamble none are guaranteed to win. 

They were never supposed to meet. 

They were never supposed to matter to each other. 

But when the first domino falls, none of them will walk away unscathed. 

After all— 

Some debts are paid in blood 

Who are you willing to trust and bet on? 

Sincerely, 

 The author
