The Oval and The Osprey
Power has shifted. The game has changed. But the dead still leave love notes.
Two years after the bloodshed, Xyla reigns from the shadows as the head of The Nest-no longer just a weapon, but a queen. In the heart of DC, Osprey commands the Secret Service with cold precision, torn between duty and the woman quietly unraveling him: Serena, Xyla's closest confidante.
President Lincoln Bader is in office, but something sinister is stalking the powerful. Victims are found one by one-throats marked with soft pink silk, a killer's signature both elegant and terrifying. No clues. No identity. Just whispers.
And beneath it all, Xyla can't let go of the ghost that still haunts her-Raven. Vanished. Presumed dead. But the trail leads to Europe: glittering nights in Paris, cold-blooded deals in Romania, and the brutal hush of Russian secrets. Every breadcrumb pulls Xyla closer to Raven... or to her own destruction.
As the ribbons tighten and loyalties twist, passion simmers beneath the surface. Osprey battles the slow fall into Serena. Xyla fights to hold on to love that may never return. And in the crossfire of politics, vengeance, and obsession, no one comes out clean.
In a world where power is currency and love is weakness, who will live long enough to burn for what they want most?
