He tilts his head slightly, observing her like a predator watching its prey, his grip still tight but not quite painful-just enough to remind her of his power over her. "You've made your decision, haven't you? To leave, to try and be free." His fingers move ever so slightly along her skin, as if tracing invisible lines of fate. "You can leave, Rumiya. But the moment you walk out that door... know that you're already mine again. In every way that matters." Douma's smirk turns into a quiet, dangerous laugh.

All Rumiya ever wanted to do was skate. But when she was faced with the choice of dying or becoming a demon, she transformed into Upper Moon 4. Twisting her once-graceful moves into deadly forms, she became both feared and revered in the demon world. But the thread of humanity she's always held on to makes her human again. Now, Rumiya clings to the hope that she can right her past wrongs, but shadows from her demon life refuse to let her go. Old allies, former enemies, forbidden bonds, and a dangerous love triangle emerges, each one pulling her deeper into a struggle that tests both her strength and her heart. Will she finally get her happy ending? Or will she fall beneath the cracked ice?
