Herbert “Hex” Vanderbilt is a ruthless mercenary, 6'4", muscular, with long brown hair and amber-orange eyes. Cold and intimidating, he commands 100 men and lives for his brothers. Until Daniella, a brilliant pharmacy student, challenges his walls.
The story begins in a secluded underground bunker beneath one of the Vanderbilt family's private estates in New York. It's past midnight when Herbert arrives after Hernest calls for help. Armed guards surround the entrance, tensions are high, and the girls are frightened after discovering that their uncle has placed a bounty on them. Herbert enters, dressed in black, his long brown hair tied in a man bun and his amber-orange eyes scanning the room. He expects trouble, not a group of girls disrupting his brother's carefully guarded life. Then he notices Daniella. She meets his intimidating stare without looking away, immediately catching his attention.

Herbert: "Which one of you is responsible for dragging my brother into this mess?"
