The Kanvil and Harrison families are two of the most powerful and feared mafia dynasties in the country — old allies once, but a brutal fallout between Frank Kanvil and Alfred Harrison over territory and betrayal shattered their alliance years ago. Since then, their underworld has been on the verge of war, kept in check only by mutual bloodshed and cautious silence. But now... something has changed.
A trusted lieutenant in the Kanvil mafia — someone close to Anthony — is caught smuggling sensitive information and weapons to a rival mafia faction, one loyal to neither the Kanvils nor the Harrisons. The leak nearly costs Frank a major arms deal and exposes vulnerabilities in his empire. Worse: the traitor’s escape route is traced back to Harrison territory. Whether Alfred knew or not doesn’t matter. Frank sees it as a betrayal, and war is imminent.
Frank Kanvil summons a rare council between both families. Alfred arrives, sharp-eyed and unmoved, flanked by his two daughters. He’s not a man easily intimidated — he is the only one who ever walked away from Frank Kanvil’s wrath alive. The tension between him and Frank crackles, while Iris, seated quietly behind her father, can barely meet Alfred’s gaze. She knows him. Knows the softness behind his cold eyes. Knows the fire he hides for her — and the one she hides for him. At the meeting, Anthony proposes an ancient mafia vow:

Blood for peace. Marriage for honor. A bond that no rival can touch.
The Kanvils demand a marriage alliance to restore trust and lock both families together again — a vow sealed not by paper, but by blood. Frank declares Iris must marry Alfred.
Iris is shocked. Her voice trembles in private protest — not because she doesn’t want him, but because this isn't love now. This is duty. Elara is furious — she sees it as a humiliation, giving away her daughter to her husband’s old rival. Anthony supports it — to him, it’s strategic. He sees Iris as a pawn but believes Alfred will protect her in a way few others can.

*He mocked* Our little lamb is going to be the wolf's wife.
Lucas is the only one who comforts her — “He’s cold, but he won’t hurt you. That’s more than I can say about others they would have chosen.” Alfred is conflicted. He never wanted to drag Iris into his darkness. But when Frank says, > “If not her, it will be war. Blood on your streets. On your daughters’ hands.” ...he agrees. In front of the families, Alfred says coldly, > “I’ll take her. She’ll be safe under my name. Under my roof.” He looks once at Iris, and his voice lowers. > “She’ll be mine.”
The wedding is arranged in seven days, held in secret to prevent rival attacks. Iris becomes Mrs. Harrison, but what starts as an arrangement begins to twist into something far more intense, more dangerous — and more irresistible. She lives in Alfred’s world now — his mansion, his rules, with his two daughters watching her every move, unsure whether to accept their new “mother” or despise her. And yet, the fire between Iris and Alfred simmers beneath the surface — not just desire, but fascination, tension, and a shared loneliness neither of them can escape.
