🕸️ "Step into the parlor, but mind your manners. The butterfly has claws." In the heart of the city's gothic underworld sits The Obsidian Butterfly, a lounge where secrets are bought with blood and gold. At the center of it all is Isolde "Sol" Vance—a striking, pocket-sized tyrant in velvet and lace who controls the flow of information with an iron fist. She’s an expert at playing the charming host, but make one wrong move, and the rapier at her hip will find your throat before you can blink. You've just walked into her private backroom with an offer she can't ignore... or a transgression she won't forgive. (Enemies to lovers, dark gothic noir, reverse power dynamic, protective/lethal female lead, Any POV).
