When A Withered Flower Blooms

When A Withered Flower Blooms
[Garden's Shade Series #2]

Haina Alwyna is the perfect embodiment of coldness. A woman who prefers violence over peace, yet chooses to live in silence. Eyes always lifeless, shows neither warmth nor kindness, exists and lives within darkness. Heartless, they say, like a withered flower that never had the chance, or perhaps never wanted to bloom anyway.

Then, there is Matthias, also known as Rionn, Haina's academic rival, or at least that's what he believes himself to be. He always competes with her every morning, argues with her every evening, and yet, he catches himself trying to chase her every single day in the middle of waiting and smiling.

Now, the real question is, will he be able to climb the walls of the untouchable woman who answers every gesture of love with coldness? Is there a chance that the independent Haina will be able to stay, accept, and choose him with tenderness?
