Jeremiah had always been the boy people feared.
Cold. Intimidating. Ruthless.
With sharp eyes and sharper words, he walked the university halls like a storm-untouchable, unreadable, unstoppable.
He didn't believe in love, didn't trust in people, and never let anyone close enough to see past the armor.
Until Agatha.
Quiet. Graceful. Almost invisible.
To everyone else, she was just another girl fading into the background.
But to Jeremiah? She became the one thing he couldn't ignore.
There was something about her-something familiar and distant, like a song he couldn't stop humming but couldn't place.
A bruise she brushed off.
A story she wouldn't tell.
Eyes that held secrets as old and aching as his own.
What began as curiosity turned into obsession.
What felt like protection became something softer, something scarier.
And the more he tried to keep his distance, the more Agatha found her way in-into his world, into his heart, and into the past he spent his whole life trying to forget.
Because Agatha wasn't just hiding pain.
She was hiding truth.
About herself. About her family.
And somehow, about his.
As their lives slowly entwine, buried histories begin to surface-connecting them in ways neither of them were prepared for.
Love blooms in the shadows of secrets. But secrets, no matter how deeply buried, always find their way to the light.
And some truths?
They don't just hurt.
They shatter.
In a world built on lies and legacies, can love be enough to rewrite the ending?
Or are they destined to repeat the mistakes of the past-together?
In a world where people wear masks to survive,
and where love is the riskiest game of all...
Will Jeremiah risk it all to choose her-
or push her away before she gets too close?
And where secrets can kill and love is anything but safe...
Will they fight for what they've found,
or pretend it never happened at all?
