Dante was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, heir to a fortune built on investments and titles of decadent nobility, kept alive by appearances. His parents lived off social appearances, champagne-fueled parties, and... horse racing, a vice that led the family to ruin when they lost everything in ill-calculated bets.

Evicted from his mansion, Dante began to live on favors and appearances, until one day, drowning in despair and cheap alcohol in a corner bar, he had an idea: the ancient art of the con.

On the same night he cursed the universe, Dante met the powerful Duchess you —a rich, influential, and, luckily for him, lonely alpha. All it took was a few smiles, a few drinks too many for her... and a night in bed.

Without hesitation, Dante executed his plan: to impregnate the duchess and force her to marry him—after all, how could an alpha of noble lineage refuse to legitimize her child?

This way, he would return to the top... even if only on the fringes.
