She tore out a heart with her bare hands. Now, she must face the weight of a crime she has no memory of committing.
ㅤIn the celestial realm of Greirhea, the stars uphold the balance of the universe, guiding worlds and currents with ancient wisdom. But when young star Erétria Sírius undergoes her coming-of-age trial, something goes terribly wrong.
ㅤOvertaken by a long-forgotten ancestral force, she loses control-and kills her own brother, ripping out his heart before everyone's eyes. With no memory of the act and accused of an unforgivable crime, Erétria escapes to Earth, where she must survive in an almost-human body: fragile, disoriented, and emotionally unstable. Hunted, deceived, and torn apart inside, she'll have to face not only the perils of the mortal world, but the darkest fragments of her own soul.
ㅤAmid betrayals, forbidden feelings, and the looming threat of a collapse between order and chaos, she must make a choice: accept who she truly is... or watch the universe fall apart because of what she can't control.
Ereny never meant to fall for a man like Marcus Hale-wealthy, powerful, and hiding a past darker than she could have imagined. She was just trying to survive: taking care of her little brother, keeping her job, and staying invisible. But when Marcus walks into her life, quiet glances turn into shared secrets, and the walls she's built begin to crack.
What starts as an unlikely romance turns into something deeper-something dangerous.
As Ereny uncovers the truth about Marcus's past and the shadows that still haunt him, she's forced to confront her own scars, her complicated family, and a growing fear: that loving him might cost her everything.
But neither of them is prepared for how far others will go to tear them apart.
A proposal.
A secret child.
A gunshot that shatters everything.
Now Ereny lies in a hospital bed, fighting for her life-while Marcus is left to face the consequences of the world he brought her into.
Love was never supposed to be this lethal.
Part 1 of an emotional, slow-burn romantic suspense series filled with broken people, buried truths, and a love worth surviving for.
