He bought her freedom with blood money.
She offered her heart without knowing it already belonged to him.
When Clementine Mavis is sold to pay off her father's debts, she expects cruelty - not tenderness. But the man who takes her, Sebastian Lake, is nothing like the monsters she imagined. Quiet. Broken. Beautiful in a way that hurts to look at.
He doesn't ask for obedience. He asks for trust.
And in the dark halls of his manor, Clementine begins to see the truth behind his cold eyes - a man haunted by guilt, protecting a heart too fragile to love.
But she wasn't meant to stay. And he was never meant to fall.
In a world built on power and pain, can two fractured souls find something gentle... even if it's born in the dark?
