Anastasia was a star that burned too bright. A prima donna of the 1920s, her voice could bring even the coldest hearts to tears. But fame was a double-edged sword. Men desired her, the world worshiped her, and in the end, it destroyed her. By 1930, she was nothing but a shattered soul-haunted, terrified, and suffocated by an obsession that ended in blood.
But the universe was not done with her. The higher powers, moved by her kindness, turned back time, giving her a second chance at life. Only this time, Death himself would walk among mortals, ensuring fate did not change. Under the alias Sylus, a man of unexplainable wealth and influence, he enters her world-a shadow among the living, watching, waiting.
Anastasia, wary of men, should fear him. Yet there's something about him-something beyond human, beyond reason. A presence that sends chills down her spine but also lingers in her thoughts. He is both danger and salvation, the only one who seems to understand the weight of her existence.
But can Sylus aka Death who has seen the end of her story, truly remain a spectator? Or will he break the rules of the universe for a woman who was never meant to escape death twice?
