Warm. Soft. The scent of leather lingering in the air. 
Born with a rare ocular condition, Adilene Ackerman reached her senior year at Brown University where she set out to fulfill her father's legacy in the arts. 
All is well, in her mind, but her 'best friend' and the consuming need to make her father proud destroyed every opportunity she had to find herself. 
Now, as dark secrets and toxicity place Adilene's life on the line, time rewinds as her relationships and obsession for the one she loves most unravel, changing everything; for better. . . or, for worse.

24 parts Ongoing
Naomi "Ni" Johnson is an ordinary girl living in a small town. She has dreams of moving to the city and pursuing her passion for art. However, her life takes an unexpected and terrifying turn when she's kidnapped one evening by a mysterious and dangerous man named Adrian Blackwood. Adrian, a brooding and powerful figure in the criminal underworld, has been watching Ni for weeks. At first, his reasons for kidnapping her seem cold and calculated-he believes she's the key to settling a vendetta with her estranged family, who betrayed him years ago. Ni's family, once involved in shady dealings, has tried to stay out of Adrian's reach, but now he has found a way to get his revenge: by taking their daughter. In Adrian's secluded mansion, surrounded by forests and an icy lake, Ni is trapped. She tries to escape multiple times, but each time Adrian catches her, though he never harms her. Instead, he shows unexpected softness, an emotion she doesn't expect from a criminal like him. Ni soon learns that Adrian's life is far more complicated than it appears on the surface. As time passes, the tension between them grows. Adrian is torn-his plans of revenge are slipping away, replaced by a desire to protect Ni, to keep her close for reasons he cannot admit to himself. Meanwhile, Ni finds herself drawn to Adrian's intensity, his tortured past, and the flickers of vulnerability he shows only around her. She fights her feelings, determined not to fall for the man who has taken her freedom. But slowly, her fear turns to understanding, and understanding turns to love. Yet, danger lurks as Adrian's enemies close in. Ni must decide if she can truly trust Adrian or if their love is doomed from the start. Together, they'll have to face the ghosts of Adrian's past, and Ni will need to confront her own demons if they are to survive-and find happiness in the darkness.

"I'm telling you that I'm not just being paranoid, everything leads to this. You're my best friend, and you have to believe me, I'm not imagining things." "No, you always do this, you always play detective, and I'm honestly getting tired of this, when will you stop trying to live in one of your thriller novels? You have to wake up, this is real life and I'm finally happy. Why do you have to do this every time?" "I'm not doing anything, even you can't deny that things have been strange from the moment we stepped foot here, I'm afraid. You have seen the notes I got. That person is coming after me next." "No, I'm done with you and your constant worries. I can no longer keep up with you, so I'm simply done." -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aurora is a teenage girl who did everything she could to get accepted into her dream university.
