"In the early 21st century, Selina, the daughter of the mafia family “the Rusty Blades,” is betrayed by Simon, her father Massimo’s most trusted subordinate and adopted son. After being usurped and driven out of the family, Selina returns five years later seeking revenge. In the past, they were childhood sweetthreats divided by status. Selina pursued boldly, while Simon quietly protected her. On the night of Selina’s eighteenth birthday, they fell in love. But a misunderstanding made her believe she had been deceived by her lover and cast out. Years later, under the code name “Blood Rose,” she returns bent on revenge.
The truth, however, is that Selina suffers from a hereditary disease. Simon was raised by her father as a sacrifice to provide a heart for Selina, destined to resolve all problems for her before the family could go legit, and ultimately to sacrifice himself. To protect Selina from harm and cultivate her ability to inherit the mafia and stand against other families, Simon hid the truth and deliberately kept her at a distance. In his restrained love, Simon knows his time is running out."
