When Selene Everleigh receives an unexpected letter naming her the heir to Blackthorn Manor, she returns to a home she has no memory of-but one that seems to remember her. The decaying estate whispers with secrets, the staff speaks in half-truths, and a hauntingly familiar man named Lucian Everleigh welcomes her with a knowing smile.
Lucian is alluring yet unsettling, his presence both protective and possessive. He claims to be a distant relative, but his resemblance to Selene is uncanny. Shadows flicker where they shouldn't, memories slip through her grasp, and in the dim glow of an ancient mirror, she sees something impossible-another version of herself, smiling back.
As the past unravels and dark truths come to light, Selene must confront the horrifying reality: she was never the only heir. And Lucian? He was never meant to exist.
A gothic romance horror dripping with mystery, obsession, and the supernatural-where love is as dangerous as the secrets buried in the walls.

[Mature Content | 18+] "It was you, wasn't it, Lucian?" Damian's voice boomed with anger, sending shivers down Sera's spine. Whispers of the Darkling's ruthless nature had reached her ears, and she wondered if they were true. It couldn't be, could it? "What if it was me? Damian, grow up. She's not even human. How could she be your soulmate? We are Darklings, defined by power," Lucian retorted, his eyes widening as he looked at Sera. With trepidation, she nodded slightly, still fearful of Lucian's gaze. Before he could speak again, Damian unleashed his powers, ending Lucian's life in a macabre spectacle. The room reeked of blood as Lucian collapsed. "D-Damian!"
