He thought he had married a sweet and unassuming woman, the perfect alibi wife. He didn't know that between the two of them, he was the alibi.
SOPHIA
On my wedding day, I discovered that the man I loved was nothing but a liar. A manipulator. He seduced me, made me believe in love... only to use me. I was just an alibi, a facade to hide his affair with a married woman.
But something doesn't add up.
Why her? Why Natasha, the wife of Stanislas Stanford, a man as powerful as he is dangerous? A man suspected of arms trafficking, who wouldn't hesitate to kill if he discovered the betrayal. Darko knew it was suicidal... so why did he take that risk?
And more importantly... why did he think I would remain a mere spectator?
DARKO
I married Sophia for the wrong reasons. Trapped with Natasha, I improvised an engagement to save us. Then I needed a wife. Sophia was an obvious choice. We grew up together, and our bond was always special. She was perfect for this role.
But since she discovered the truth, something has changed.
She hasn't just run away from me. She's digging. She's asking questions. She's following trails I would have preferred to keep buried. As assassins pursue her, I realize that Sophia may never have been who I thought she was. And the more I learn about her, the more I realize how much she is the woman I've always wanted.
As assassins lurk and every step could be fatal, Sophia and Darko find themselves unwillingly caught in a dangerous game of cat and mouse. Between betrayals, secrets, and the desire for truth, will they face off against each other... or unite their forces against a common enemy?
