IVO

✿ IVO ✿
In a drowned world where technology is feared and history survives only within a handful of ziggurats, Ivo is just another woman struggling to endure. The scars of a catastrophic global war still shape daily life, and survival often depends on avoiding the forbidden remnants of the past and the people who control what remains.

When chance leads her to the edge of an obscure exclusion zone, a place locals whisper about but never enter, her fragile routine begins to unravel. Drawn by an instinct she cannot explain, she crosses into territory meant to remain unreachable and meets a mysterious man known only as Estivan.

Isolation has shaped him into something both magnetic and unsettling. Their proximity awakens curiosity sharpened by danger. Distance dissolves into observation, observation into tension, and tension into a charged intimacy neither fully understands. Attraction emerges alongside unease, restraint, control, dependency, and obsession, threaded through power, vulnerability, and the unfamiliar sensation of being truly seen.

As their paths intertwine, Ivo confronts relics of a forgotten age, unsettling truths buried beneath superstition, and questions about her place in a world built on silence.

Some boundaries exist for a reason.
