Marcus

Marcus - He's the new student everyone whispers but never really sees. After losing his mother and sister, he was left alone with a father whose love turned into something cruel and unrecognizable. His bruises hidden under sleeves, words that echo his mind even after the yelling stops. All he wants is to be seen and not blamed for what happened in the past.

Katerina - She's the girl who sits by the window, always half lost in her daydreams or drawings. Fun when wants to be but mostly quiet towards others. She craves freedom more than anything especially from those suffocating rules of her father's house and the expectations that tie her down.

So what happens when Marcus, with his piercing green eyes and hidden scars, catches Katerina's attention? She tells herself it's just a small crush but the more she learns about him. She sees pieces of herself in his silence and she can't help but get drawn in. Things take a turn when she ends up making a deal with someone she shouldn't trust. A deal that promises her the freedom but at a price she can't fully see yet.

As their relationship grows it's now tangled in secrets, bruised hopes, and a fragile trust that might save them or break them apart.
