LUNA NOZZAWA — the troubled young woman whose name had already stirred rumors in the city’s most powerful circles — now lies clinging to life after a catastrophic collision that witnesses described as deliberate, violent, and unlike anything they had ever seen.
Shortly before midnight, the screech of twisting metal echoed along the coastline as Luna’s silver sedan was struck with such force that it spun across three lanes before slamming into a guardrail. But the most chilling detail? Eyewitnesses swear a black SUV rammed her car… then disappeared into the darkness without braking.
Within minutes, BILL SPENCER — the ruthless titan feared across Los Angeles — arrived at the crash site after receiving an anonymous message containing Luna’s location. When he saw her, broken and bleeding beneath crumpled steel, something primal tore through him. The man who once crushed empires with a single headline collapsed to his knees.
As EMTs fought to free her, Luna’s eyes flickered open just long enough to whisper the six words that would haunt Bill forever:
“Please… don’t let me die, Bill.”
Her blood-stained plea shattered the armor he had worn his entire life.
At the hospital, chaos erupted the moment Bill stormed through the doors. He threatened doctors, ordered specialists out of bed, and demanded that no one — no one — keep him from her side. Security tried to intervene. They failed.
Inside the trauma unit, Luna flatlined twice.
Surgeons battled internal bleeding, shattered ribs, and a brain contusion so severe they warned she might never wake again.
But Bill refused to step back. He stayed through every second — pacing, trembling, muttering promises he never thought he’d make to anyone.
When dawn finally broke and Luna stirred, her voice was barely a breath:
“You stayed… you really stayed.”
And in that moment, something in Bill Spencer snapped into place — a vow so fierce it frightened the doctors who overheard it.
“Whoever did this to you… I will find them. And I will end them.”
The police soon delivered the twist that confirmed Bill’s darkest fear:Tire marks. Surveillance footage. A destroyed traffic camera.This wasn’t an accident.
It was an orchestrated attack.
And Luna wasn’t the intended target — Bill was.
Someone wanted to hurt him… by destroying the one person who had unknowingly slipped past his defenses.
Now, with Luna’s life hanging by a thread, Bill Spencer is no longer playing by the rules. He has begun assembling a private team — ex-military, off-the-grid, loyal only to him.
Because this is no longer a rescue.
It’s war.
And the secret behind Luna’s crash is about to ignite a firestorm powerful enough to take down Los Angeles’ most untouchable families.
