Ever since she was young, Eustacia Calli dreamed of becoming a veterinarian. She wanted to build a life of her own-one filled with freedom, happiness, and peace. But the life she was forced to live slowly buried those dreams, replacing them with silence and agony.
She was like midnight rain; she could never truly be happy or satisfied, but restless, cold, and drawn to chaos, as if pain was the only thing that ever made sense to her.
And when Chantler Finn, a sunshine soul raised to endure, fight, and survive, found her, time stood still.
After all, maybe they were never meant to build the highest walls after every storm.
Maybe all they ever wanted was someone willing to open the door and stay.
But can two people-one learning to heal, and one who has only ever learned to endure-truly find peace together? Or will they continue chasing the pain that was never theirs to carry in the first place?
