Broken boys break hearts.

Dante is a painter. He is a young nobleman who has everything the gods can offer. He has fame, status, money and a beautiful fiancée. He has nothing to lose until he met a pianist named Julian. He felt immediate attraction, temptation and lust towards the man but never love. Betrayal is his innocence. However things will not always be the same because, suddenly one day, he falls in love and paints it for him. But what happens if someone else steals the pianist's heart?
