Serena, an orphan girl from slums, is sold by her gambler adoptive father to a gangster to pay off debts. Cornered, she kills the gang boss and flees, only to fall into a secret chamber where she meets Arthur, a tyrant tycoon cursed with unstable wolf blood that transforms him into a massive black wolf. Only Serena’s unique cold fragrance can calm his decade-long genetic rage, making her his destined antidote. Arthur locks her up in isolated Blackwood Castle and forces a heir-bearing contract on her.
After countless confrontations, Serena conceives twins. She survives poisoning attempts and suppression from Sterling’s elders. At the Global Perfume Summit, she exposes her fake sister Evelyn’s stolen formula and reunites with her birth mother Sarah, ruler of the Walton perfume empire, reclaiming her identity as the sole heiress.
Traitors and rebels launch repeated assassinations, while her cruel adoptive father and Evelyn face their reckoning. Holding power over two huge empires, Serena stands atop the world with Arthur, the wolf lord who swears absolute loyalty to her. At their twins’ full-moon banquet, they reign supreme over both the legitimate business world and underground forces.
