Silk & Ashes follows Aurora Méndez, a young woman burdened by a painful past, and Zira Veleno, the cold, powerful daughter of a man Aurora believes was responsible for her mother's death.
Aurora earns a spot in the elite training program of Aurealis Airlines, hoping for a fresh start, only to discover that Zira is not only part of her past but now the CEO of the very company. Their reunion reopens old wounds and revives a deep, toxic tension between them.
Through alternating perspectives, the story reveals their families' tragic entanglement: Aurora's mother and Zira's father shared a complicated, dangerous connection that ended in a mysterious plane crash killing them both. Aurora blames Zira's father; Zira blames Aurora's. Both carry grief, resentment, and unanswered questions.
As Aurora is pulled deeper into Aurealis, she finds herself trapped by contracts, secrets, and Zira's controlling presence. Zira, for her part, is torn between her hatred, her need for answers about the past, and her unsettling pull toward Aurora.
Meanwhile, Aurora struggles with anxiety, her mother's hidden notebook full of cryptic clues, and an unexpected attraction not only to Zira but also to a charming fellow trainee. These threads create a dangerous mix of obsession, rivalry, forbidden attraction, and mystery.
At its heart, Silk & Ashes is a story of two women bound by tragedy, hate, and desire each trying to survive their shared history while uncovering truths that could destroy them both.
