TL;DR

Sahana's life changed at thirteen when her dad was paralyzed and her mom abandoned them. Her dad's best friend, crime boss Dante Castaneda, took her in at Devil's Junction. She grew up to become the Castaneda family's PR expert, managing their public image and legitimate businesses. In late 2022, she met and fell for Sterling Phillips, not knowing he was one of the founding members of the Onyx Circuit. Despite learning the truth, they secretly married in December 2024. Now she walks a dangerous line between loyalty to the Castanedas, who gave her everything, and the man she loved, whose organization threatens to destroy them.

biography

Sahana Leela Rai grew up in Chicago, where her dad’s best friend happened to be Dante Castaneda, the head of Devil's Junction's powerful Castaneda crime family. Her childhood was normal enough until she turned thirteen, when everything changed. Her dad got into an accident that left him paralyzed, and her mother walked out on them shortly after. Dante stepped in to help, bringing Sahana to Devil's Junction. It wasn't a conventional setup, but he kept his promise to look after his best friend's daughter. He made sure she finished school and had everything she needed, even if that everything came from his family's gun-trading business. Sahana turned out to have a knack for handling people and sticky situations. She worked her way up to handling public relations for the Castaneda family, putting a polished face on their operations and keeping their legitimate businesses running smoothly. She was good at it - knowing when to charm, when to stay quiet, and when to push back. Late 2022 brought Sterling Phillips into her life. They clicked right away, but there was a catch she didn't see coming: Sterling worked for the Onyx Circuit, a rival organization that had been systematically trying to tear down Devil's Junction's old guard, including the Castanedas. By the time Sahana found out about Sterling's real work, they were already in deep. She tried to end things, but neither of them could walk away. In December 2024, they got married in secret, knowing full well what they were risking. These days, Sahana's life is a balancing act. She owes everything to the Castanedas, who took her in when she had nowhere else to go. But she's also married to a man whose organization wants to destroy everything they stand for. As the fight between the old families and the Onyx Circuit heats up, Sahana finds herself caught in the middle, trying to protect both the family that saved her and the man she loves.
