Yumeko Jabami has everything - a perfect fiancé, a powerful family, and a future the world envies. But none of it feels like hers.
Then she meets Kira Timurov. Elegant, guarded, and quietly magnetic, Kira is everything Yumeko was never allowed to want. Their connection is immediate. And impossible.
What begins as a spark deepens into something neither of them can name - something that asks Yumeko to risk everything she's ever known. But love this real doesn't come without consequences. And silence, once chosen, is hard to take back.
Told across cities, letters, and late-night confessions, this is a story about first love, impossible choices, and the long road back to the person who sees you clearly.
A slow-burn sapphic romance about yearning, legacy, and the kind of love that keeps finding its way home.
