She has spent her life in quiet endurance-holding herself together, keeping everyone else's world intact, and forgetting the woman she once was. But one night, with the house empty and the city alive, she steps into the world for herself. As her heart remembers what it feels like to live, she discovers that reclaiming herself may be the most dangerous and exhilarating journey of all.

Letlotlo Motaung cuts into people's brains for a living. Getting into their hearts? That's where she fails. She's a neurosurgeon who keeps the world at arm's length, because if they get close enough, they'll find the dark folds she hides. The things that would make them leave. The secret that would make the Khumalo heir walk away without looking back. Enter Nkanyezi Khumalo. Annoyingly patient, impossibly persistent, and completely uninterested in her "no feelings" rule. He wants to annoy her, challenge her, love her - whatever it takes to get her attention. And dammit, it's working! Now 𝘪𝘵 has her by the balls. Maybe 𝘪𝘵 is his hands on her lower back when she tries to leave. Maybe 𝘪𝘵 is the way he looks at her like the secret won't scare him. Maybe 𝘪𝘵 is her own traitorous heart, choosing the man she could destroy if she lets him stay. But Letlotlo's carrying something she never planned to share. Something that could make him walk away the second he finds out. She's falling. He's not looking back. What happens when the truth catches up? The question isn't if she'll run. It's whether he'll let her.

"What is it that you want in a relationship? And please, be as descriptive as you can be" He asks with a smooth barritone that rings bells of pleasure in my ears and other places I dare not to mention I ponder on the thought for a moment then I look at him "I want to be respected, I want stability and commitment, I want to be able to build a life with someone, to have them cherish, protect and love me. I want honesty and I want to get married and have a family." I stop and chuckle, feeling all kinds of silly, with the way he's looking at me. I can't tell if he's thinking that I'm too wishful given the era that we live in where people are quick to deceive each other and dive from one partner to the next. Commitment really does seem like a thing of the past. "I want a family, I want to settle down, get married, provide for and protect my wife as I should. I also expect respect, honesty, loyalty and transparency" he says and it almost sounds like we are negotiating terms of a deal "And love"I add "Love..." he says slowly like it's his first time hearing of the word, it almost sounds foreign coming from him "Yes, I want to be loved" "What is love, exactly?"
