Zariah Beatrice Zamonte Waltz had always known the province as her whole world-a place where the air was quiet, the fields wide, and love came from the warmth of her grandparents' arms. It had been seven years since her mother died, and with a young and innocent mind, Zariyah believed she had truly lost her forever.
School was never her comfort. Bullies made sure she felt out of place, and classmates avoided her like she was invisible. It shaped her into the girl who hid in silence, too shy to meet anyone's eyes. But at home, things were different. Surrounded by her grandparents, uncles, aunts, and especially her cousins who treated her like their little princess, Zariyah grew up safe, loved, and cherished-so much like her mother when she was young.
Her days were simple. Peaceful. Until one day changed everything. Her mother's best friend returned, not alone, but with a man who looked nothing like the people she knew. Cold. Distant. Guarded. The kind of presence that carried secrets too heavy to speak.
And with his arrival, It would stir secrets of the past, turning Zariyah's quiet life into one filled with questions, revelations, and a destiny she never expected.
