However, the wheel of fate turned mercilessly, dragging her into the abyss of darkness.
Grace's father, a man who held a special place in her heart, was plunged into endless pain and decadence due to the death of her mother. Five years passed, yet he still couldn't emerge from his grief. He even got involved in gambling and drug - taking, ultimately incurring a huge debt. One day, a group of fierce debt - collectors burst into their home, shattering the last bit of tranquility. Only then did Grace realize that her father's debt had put their lives in grave danger.
To save her father and preserve their broken - down home, Grace had no choice but to accept a desperate deal. She became the personal accountant of Dominick Moretti, the Italian mafia boss. At the same time, she was forced to use her body to pay off the seemingly insurmountable debt.

In the office, she had to deal with complex and risky accounting work every day, laundering Dominick's ill - gotten black money. Every number was like a bomb ready to explode at any moment. And Dominick's presence kept her in constant fear. His cold eyes and powerful aura seemed to be able to see through her soul.
During the days of getting along with Dominick, Grace was filled with contradictions. On one hand, she was full of fear and loathing for this man who controlled her fate.

Once, Grace was arranged to go to the BDSM club owned by Dominick with Rafael to handle financial affairs.
