In the quiet corners of a world that never noticed her, lived Maia -shy, unseen, chubby and endlessly forgiving. For years, she bore the weight of betrayal: whispered lies from boys who used her kindness as a weapon, cruel laughter from girls who mocked her plain clothes and downcast eyes. Each hurt was swallowed whole-no tears spilled in protest, no anger ever spoken. She became a ghost in her own life.
But ghosts don't stay silent forever.
One night at the edge of despair, something answered-not salvation... but awakening an ancient entity stirs within the shadows of her bedroom mirror and claims to know exactly how it feels to be devoured alive by hearts too cold to care. It offers Maia not healing-but power
Suddenly sharp where she once trembled; beautiful where she once hid; dangerous where she used to break-the world begins seeing Maia differently now. And why wouldn't they? She doesn't flinch anymore... especially when hearts start going missing.
Then comes Valentino , older than he looks with ice in his veins and secrets beneath his coat-he sees past the new mask faster than anyone should have been able to... maybe because he carries one too.
Maia finds herself wanting more than vengeance-for him? She almost believes redemption is possible...
But what happens when love demands you put down your fangs?
