Victoria "Vicky" Delgado
Age:
21
Physical Appearance:
Victoria Delgado is stunning in a way that makes people look twice. She stands at 5’7”, with a figure that is both elegantly feminine and effortlessly poised. Her dark brown hair cascades in soft, natural waves, framing features that seem almost too perfect—high cheekbones, full lips, and a delicate nose that gives her an air of effortless refinement. But it’s her striking green eyes that hold the most power, intense and intelligent, capable of reading a room in an instant. Her beauty is undeniable, but it’s the way she carries it—confident, composed, untouchable—that makes her unforgettable.
Victoria Delgado has always known what she is—a princess in a world ruled by kings, a prize meant to be protected, married off, and kept out of real power. As the daughter of Luca Delgado, a branch leader of the powerful Genovese Mafia family, she’s been surrounded by guards her entire life. But when threats against her escalate, her father assigns her a new one.
Nathaniel Carter.
They call him Ghost, though no one will tell her why.
At twenty-three, he is nothing like the men who came before him. He doesn’t hover. Doesn’t bark orders. Half the time, he looks like he couldn’t care less whether she listens or not. His movements are too casual, his presence too quiet, his expressions unreadable.
At first, she thinks he’s just another soldier her father trusts too much.
Then, she starts to notice the things no one else does.
How he’s always in the right place before anything happens. How people who try to get too close to her suddenly change their minds. How, for a man who acts so detached, his presence is absolute—a shadow that never quite leaves.
And then one night, when an ambush goes wrong, she sees it for herself.
Why they call him Ghost.
Why her father doesn’t just trust him—he fears him.
And most terrifying of all?
Why, despite everything, she can’t seem to stay away.
