Grief can twist love into something unrecognizable...
After losing the love of his life, Darian refuses to let her go. His world shatters without her, and in his desperation, he seeks a way to bring her back-even if it means creating an illusion. When he meets a young boy who bears an uncanny resemblance to her childhood self, something inside him snaps. In his mind, this is fate. A second chance. A way to rewrite the story that ended too soon.
The boy is taken. Forced into silence, stripped of his identity, and reshaped into someone he never was. Dressed in her clothes, made to move like her, punished if he dares to be anything else. The walls of a small, locked room become his world, and each night, the man visits-whispering love to a ghost, pretending the boy is the woman he lost.
Years pass, and the boy learns that survival means obedience. But on his 18th birthday, everything changes. The man is drunk with joy-because now, he can make the transformation complete. But the boy has waited long enough. With nothing left to lose, he risks everything for a chance at freedom.
Yet even as he escapes, the past is never
far behind. Because a man who refuses to accept death will stop at nothing to reclaim what he believes is his.
