Grasping at Butterflies // Japeth x Aric
'She never understood the existence of evil. Not until those violet eyes. A shade of purple that would forever haunt her, staring at her out of the shadows in her worst nightmares. All-encompassing darkness.'

Villain Families are like Dandelions, Fleeting and Toxic.
When seven-year-old Aric is abandoned deep in the never-ending-forest, he learns two things:
One: his mother betrayed him.
Two: he can rely on no one but himself.
By the time he stumbles half-dead into Arbed House, Aric has nearly lost all trace of who he once was. But under the care of a warm and watchful dean and surrounded by others, he's given something he never expected: a second chance.
As Aric begins to unravel the meaning of trust, belonging, and softness, a new question rises:
What will he become, now that someone actually cares?
And what of the boy who makes his heart flutter?
