When Aira Ke, a fiercely independent investigative journalist, is forced to collaborate with the enigmatic billionaire heir, Kian Lei Raizhen, for a high-profile exposé, sparks fly—but not the romantic kind.

Playing The Mafia Bride

NOT YOUR REGULAR MAFIA STORY! He continued, interrupting her thoughts, "I can't bore you with the details now. All you need to know is, this is unlike any other role you've ever had to play, and best believe you'll be well paid and taken care of." Claire nodded her head slightly, staring blankly into space. Following another subtle nod from Lucas, Big John left the room, and this time, returned with a sleek leather briefcase which he set down in the middle of the table right in front of Claire. Lucas continued, "I understand your hesitation Claire," his tone reassuring. "But this arrangement is temporary-just for the event, and you'll never hear from me again." Claire didn't like the fact that that statement made her feel a tinge of sadness. "Why me?" She finally asked after gathering her thoughts. Lucas got up from his chair, paced slowly to the near open window and stared out of it at the serene night skies. "Do you remember Dark Chains?" he asked, not looking away from the window. "Uhmm yeah, my first movie, how could I forget?" "Right. You see, towards the end, your character made a statement just as she was about to pull the trigger, she said-" "-'As I do this, I do this for you'," they both said in unison. Lucas turned away from the window to face Claire, who was already staring intently at him. He slowly walked up to her, and when he was directly standing over her, causing Claire to shrink into her seat, he said in a firm, gentle tone, "You're perfect. That's why." Claire, a stunning and talented actress, is unexpectedly thrust into a role far more dangerous than any she has ever played. Hired to act as the wife of the enigmatic and powerful mafia boss, Lucas.
