Roots of Silence

When William's parents die under mysterious and grotesque circumstances, their lifeless bodies surrounded by vibrant, otherworldly flowers, he is thrust into a world of grief and unanswered questions. Determined to uncover the truth, William embarks on a harrowing journey that leads him to Casey, a brilliant yet enigmatic botanist with secrets of her own. Together, they dive into the depths of ancient folklore, unraveling a chilling connection between suppressed emotions, broken bonds, and a rare, deadly phenomenon known only as the Mortem Floras.
As their investigation deepens, so does their bond. Amidst the shadows of betrayal and the haunting beauty of the cursed blooms, William and Casey find solace in one another-a fragile love that grows even as the flowers threaten to consume them both.
But time is running out. The curse spreads, secrets emerge, and their trust is tested. To survive, William and Casey must face not only the enigmatic disease but also the painful truths buried within their own hearts. Together, they will discover whether love can bloom amidst the darkness-or if the curse will claim them both before they can find the cure.
