A dark obsession blooms in the shadows of wealth and power. Cadence Silvestre-ruthless tycoon, unhinged collector, and a man who devours what he desires. When he purchases Mayumi at a black-market auction, he doesn't just want her obedience; he craves her soul. His obsession festers into a twisted game of control: lavish cages, psychological warfare, and a wedding ring forged from fear. But beneath his calculated cruelty lies a volatile secret-he'll burn the world to keep her, even if it means destroying them both.

Beneath a broken mask lies the truth behind the façade, and while masks can conceal pain, they cannot mend wounds. In the end, no mask was worth the torture. However, to Midnight Velasquez, who was forced to wear a mask since he was young, the mask hiding his true face was a façade he was ready to keep for a lifetime. However, what occurs when the mask begins to break, revealing the dreadful things concealed beneath it? Would he have the courage to confront his true self reflected in the mirror, or would the remnants of his broken mask consume him and drag him into the depths of despair? With a broken mask, a battered body and a weary soul, Midnight couldn't help pondering... is this life worth living for? CECELIB | C.C.
