On the day I interviewed for my dream job at VÉRA, editor-in-chief Elena Voss told me to kiss her.
I refused and walked away, but when my mother suddenly collapsed and I learned her treatment would cost a hundred thousand dollars, I had no choice but to go back and ask Elena for another chance.
One kiss later, I had the job. I signed the contract without reading the fine print, only to discover that being Elena's assistant meant entering a world far stranger and more personal than I had imagined.
She sent me to clean her house, where I accidentally found a secret room filled with things I was never supposed to see. Furious, Elena threw me out—but she never actually fired me.
The next morning, I woke up at her house again and met Chester, Elena's husband. As he transformed my appearance for work, I began to realize that the woman who unsettled me most was also the one I couldn't stop thinking about.
