Lucian Darkwood is a devil cursed to live among humans, hiding his dark nature behind charm, wealth, and power. Despite it all, an aching void consumes him.
Yashika Rathi, crushed by poverty and torment, dreams of escape but finds her hope slipping away.

When their paths cross, Lucian is captivated by Yashika's fragile resilience, while she feels inexplicably drawn to his shadowed intensity. As their connection deepens, Lucian fights the pull of his curse, knowing it endangers Yashika. Yet, the closer they become, the harder it is to conceal his truth.

Love may be their salvation-or their undoing-as secrets and darkness threaten to tear them apart.
