In the silent vastness of Ravenshill Hall, an imposing English estate where the lands stretch endlessly toward the horizon, lives Selene - a young woman without a past, marked by a present she never chose. Among so many others, she is just one more... or almost. For she carries a dangerous secret: she can read and write - a rare gift among her kind, and one that everyone there helps keep hidden.
Life at Ravenshill followed an unchanging, nearly suffocating routine, until the announcement of an unexpected visit: a distant relative of the estate's master would arrive from the capital. A man with influential connections at court, whose presence demanded perfection and silence.
Selene never imagined she could hate someone so quickly... nor that one day she would be able to love him with the same intensity. Between sharp confrontations, games of power, and glances that speak louder than words, a forbidden feeling is born - in a society where the barriers between masters and servants are unbreakable.
Amid the shadows of Ravenshill Hall and the wounds of an era marked by slavery, Selene must fight against what she feels, who she is, and what is expected of her - until love, born from hatred, changes everything.
