In the shadowed depths of Kyouten, a city divided by power and secrets, Hime operates as Venus, an enigmatic broker of forbidden knowledge. Her brilliance lies in her anonymity, her strength in the impenetrable walls she’s built. But when a calculated move brings her into the orbit of Kazuki, the cold and commanding leader of the Kagezan syndicate, those walls begin to crack. Kazuki is a man who thrives on control, ruling his underworld empire with precision and ruthlessness. Yet Hime’s defiance, her sharp wit, and the dangerous allure of her secrets ignite something within him—an obsession that blurs the line between protector and predator. As shadows close in, Hime finds herself hunted by the relentless Venus Hunters and entangled in Kazuki’s growing fixation. Forced into a precarious alliance, the two must navigate a world where every move is a gamble and trust is a luxury neither can afford. But behind Hime’s shattered mask lies a truth more dangerous than any enemy, a secret that could change the balance of power in Kyouten forever. When facades crumble and desires collide, who will emerge unscathed from the chaos?

"In a world where betrayal is currency and love is a battlefield, how far would you go to protect your heart?" Lia Romano thought she had escaped the chains of her past. Once the cherished wife of Dante Moretti-Il Leone, the most ruthless billionaire in Milan-she walked away with nothing but her dignity and a secret too precious to share. Her divorce was a scandal whispered in every corner of high society, but no one knew the truth: that Lia was framed for a crime she didn't commit. Now, three years later, Lia has rebuilt her life as a celebrated marketing strategist, fiercely guarded by her seven overprotective brothers, all CEOs ruling Italy's most powerful industries. But when her new job forces her to work under Dante, old wounds resurface, and so does the undeniable spark between them. Dante's world is thrown into chaos when he discovers her secret-Matteo, the son he never knew he had. As Dante fights to reclaim the family he lost, he must also face a web of conspiracies threatening to destroy everything. From Vittoria Conti, the venomous socialite who dreams of becoming Mrs. Moretti, to Alessandra Ricci, the jealous colleague hell-bent on Lia's downfall, enemies lurk at every corner. With scheming villains, jealous rivals, and shocking betrayals, Lia and Dante's love story is anything but simple. Torn between her past and her future, Lia must decide: Can she forgive the man who broke her heart, or will the shadows of his world consume them both? Amid fiery boardroom battles, luxurious galas, and emotional confrontations, La Rosa e il Leone is a tale of redemption, family loyalty, and a love that refuses to fade—even when the odds are stacked against it. "He called her his rose, but roses have thorns—and this time, she wouldn't let him bleed her dry." Will Dante prove himself worthy of Lia's love? Or will the scheming forces around them tear them apart forever?

There were three rules to working for CEO Karsten Chevalier. First, bring his coffee brimming hot and black like a starless night. Second, park your attitude outside his office door—his broody demeanour has the room covered. Third, never say ‘No’ to whatever he demands. Not even when he asks you to become his fake girlfriend? (Synopsis) Arata's fiance dumped her through a text on the day of their engagement party. The reason? She is too curvy for his taste! He only entertained her because of her prestigious family name.

A heartbroken Arata sets out on a journey to discover herself without revealing she is the daughter of a billionaire. She moves to another city, away from her beloved family. ‘How dare he insult me? I love my curves and I will show him.’ Arata is not a damsel; her parents have raised her strong, and now it is time to become independent. Her heart is ablaze with newfound goals. One: to see how people will treat her if she acts like an ordinary girl and hides her identity. Two: to bag a bigger fish than her stinking—joke of an ex-fiancé. She will prove that a man will genuinely love her irrespective of her curves and surname! Arata's new life begins as the secretary of Karsten Chevalier, the CEO of a multinational clothing brand who is renowned for his dashing personality and enigmatic persona. Not much is publicly known about this man. Doused in mystery, the man has his own goals and hidden agenda which will topple Arata's world. Unfortunately, Karsten's handsome face becomes a punching bag in Arata's mind because of his ruthlessly demanding personality and ego larger than Mount Everest. Arata eases her frustrations by going to meet Twisted Rider, the currently popular yet mysterious, masked internet sensation. Both tangle under the sheets and he becomes her safe space as she complains and opens up about her boss. "Will you act as my girlfriend?” Karsten's proposal to become a fake girlfriend for his family events surprised Arata! How will Arata juggle the piling demands of her boss, her own heartbreak and the seduction traps of the masked man she loves to watch in her spare time? Will sparks fly between Arata and her colder-than-Arctic ice boss? Or, will she continue to complain to the masked man that her boss probably has a small PP?
