35 bab Lengkap DewasaLéa Maren dances like her life depends on it - because some days, it does.
A ballet student at one of Europe's most elite multi-arts conservatories, Léa is known for her flawless technique and haunting stage presence. But behind the curtain, she's barely holding it together. No one sees what happens after the stage lights dim-the panic, the pressure, the feeling that if she stops dancing, she'll stop existing altogether.
Haunted by perfection, plagued by her own mind, she pours every flicker of emotion into movement - until there's nothing left of her but the performance.
Then she meets Elias Roth.
Then comes Elias Roth - a painter with quiet eyes and a sketchbook full of secrets. He watches her dance like it's the only thing in the world worth noticing. And for the first time, Léa lets herself be seen - not just as a ballerina, but as a girl who's falling apart behind the beauty.Elias sees her the way no one else does: not as a dancer, but as a person unraveling. He sketches her in silence, listens when she can't find the words, and holds her through the parts of herself she usually hides.
Their connection is fragile, intimate, and real. At least, until it isn't.
But when Elias's art begins to speak louder than his words, Léa learns the hardest truth of all...
Because the thing about artists?
They're always creating.
And not everything made in your name is made for your protection.
