He wasn't charming in the way Kaito had been. He didn't try too hard. He didn't reach for her hand, or ask her what hurt. He just showed up. In the little things. In quiet conversations, in remembering how she took her coffee, in not asking her to be anything but present. Rina felt herself shift, barely. A flicker of warmth beneath the walls she had sworn to keep up. But walls don't crumble in a day. Not after everything. Each time Toma looked at her, it was like he was waiting-for her to trust, to speak, to believe that not everyone wanted something from her. She didn't know what to do with that kind of patience. It terrified her more than any lie ever had. Was he real? Or just another storm with soft eyes? Rina stood at the edge of something she couldn't name. A choice. She could fall, again. She could walk away. Or she could hide her heart so deeply that even she couldn't find it. The only thing she knew for sure? This time, if she gave her heart, it would be on her terms. And if it broke again... she'd break with her eyes open.

Prologue The night was heavy with rain, the kind that swallowed the stars and drowned out the hum of the city. Liana sat by her bedroom window, her heart caught in the same endless loop it had been for years. Kade. His name was a melody and a curse, a thread woven into every moment of her life since she was five years old. She remembered the way his laughter had once been innocent, the way his touch had been casual, careless. But as they grew older, something in him shifted. It was in the way his gaze lingered too long, how his voice turned softer when he said her name. She should have been afraid. Maybe she was, in some small corner of her heart. But she loved him anyway. What Liana didn't know-what she hadn't yet pieced together-was that Kade's devotion had gone far beyond friendship, far beyond love. To him, Liana wasn't just his best friend. She was his anchor, his obsession, the only thing in a world that often felt like chaos. And if he had to keep her close-by any means necessary-then so be it.
