A story of buried pain, unexpected bonds, and the kind of love that heals in silence.
Arian never asked for a legacy soaked in secrets. He never wanted to inherit a business built on pain, nor be dragged back into the shadows of a father who shattered her heart. Living with a heart disease, every day is a tightrope walk-and now, his life is twisting faster than he can catch his breath.
Between hospital visits, a mother who fled without a warning, and the weight of everything she tries so hard to carry alone, Aen meets Arian-the mysterious guy with his own buried demons. He shows up when she least expects it, offering laughter and joy, but she can't let herself fall. Not again. Not now.
What if healing doesn't come from escape-but from connection?
