Bullied, unloved, and trapped between sanity and madness, Maeve lives in a world that's never been kind to her. The voices of mockery and hate never stopped, not from her classmates, teachers, or even her own family. Until one night, her reflection moved before she did. From her pain, something was born. A devil created from her despair, bound by her life energy, loyal only to her. In a reality where darkness can think and mirrors remember, Maeve must learn to control the creature that mirrors her soul. Because the more Malik learns to live, the more the world begins to fear the girl whose shadow smiles back.

Maria, feeling hurt and betrayed, began to distance herself, unable to bear watching Haven be led astray. Coffee shop is their special place same as their friendship they once had shared was lost, a casualty of the lies Haven had believed.
