Ariane Moreau is a phantom in the world of contract assassinations—silent, efficient, and utterly lethal.

Raised in the shadows of the French intelligence world, she was trained from childhood to be a survivor, molded by espionage, combat, and deception.

Her once-blonde hair is now silver-white, a symbolic erasure of her past, while her icy blue eyes assess every situation with calculated precision. Every movement is deliberate, every action methodical; she never acts without a plan. Emotion is a liability, and she has spent years ensuring it never interferes with her work.
