Los Angeles never truly slept. It just learned how to hide its secrets in the dark.
At the center of many of those secrets stood Monica Stevens.
Successful. Untouchable. Brilliant.
As Elijah Stone’s most trusted attorney, Monica had become a force within the city’s criminal elite. She moved through courtrooms with effortless confidence, dismantling cases before prosecutors could even build them. Money, influence, and power followed wherever she went, and few people were foolish enough to stand in her way.
Unfortunately for Monica, Detective Angela Lopez wasn’t one of those people.
Angela Lopez was the new Wife of her Ex
The LAPD had spent months trying to connect Monica to Stone’s organization. Every lead disappeared. Every witness changed their story. Every door slammed shut before they could get close.
Yet Angela couldn’t shake the feeling that Monica Stevens was the key.
Which was why, at nearly two in the morning, she found herself sitting silently in the darkness of Monica’s living room.
The house was immaculate. Expensive artwork lined the walls. Floor-to-ceiling windows overlooked the city lights below.
Angela sat comfortably in an armchair, arms folded, waiting.
Just as she had done months earlier when she broke into Elijah Stone’s mansion and told him exactly what she thought of him.
Outside, headlights swept across the driveway.
A car door shut.
Footsteps approached.
The front door unlocked.
