Inspired by the novel by Tijan. Emma killed a mafia prince to save her best friend, and now the city wants her dead. There’s only one place left to turn: Carter Reed - the most feared man in the city and the man her dying brother trusted with her life. Carter promised to protect her from monsters, even from himself. But the more time she spends under his protection, the more Emma realizes she’s falling for a monster. And the more Carter wants the one woman he swore to never touch. Will they give in, or will their enemies catch them first?

How to read these figures

Each row is the latest value published by its source, at its date. The measures are never added together: plays shown by an app are not ad exposures. The ReelShort counter is the one the app displays; its definition is not published. A change compares two readings of the same measure from the same source.

The VDS column shows method 1 scores, retired in October 2026, which do not describe current performance (details on the VerticalDrama Score page). Views and ranks come from the charts named in the last column. When a row spans several weeks, the reading did not move over that period: nothing is interpolated.
