Cressidc
Some things are meant to be lost. Others refuse to stay buried.
Fabianne never expected to see Helios again. Not after he shattered her world, not after he kidnapped her and let her go. Not after she spent ten years trying to forget him.
But when a familiar stranger sits across from her at a café-refined, polished, unrecognizable except for those cobalt eyes-her past comes rushing back. Along with the fire, the betrayal, and the one thing she left behind.
Years ago, she risked her life for a single necklace. But maybe she wasn't just trying to save an object-maybe she was chasing the last piece of herself she lost in the flames.
Now, Helios is back. But he's no longer the man she once knew. He has a new name. A new life. And a secret that could burn everything down again.
She has one chance to uncover the truth before he disappears forever.
Because some stories don't end in fire. Some begin with it.
