GrayBorn

In the midst of his parents' bitter divorce, young Gavin is sent away by his mother, Sevm, to live with her younger brother, Elm - a man both worshipped and feared. That very night, Sevm dies in a car crash eerily identical to the one that claimed her parents and sister years before.

Elm, known to many as Adonis for his flawless beauty and calm grace, is more dangerous than he appears. To the world, he is charm incarnate; in truth, he is a man cloaked in shadows, harboring secrets that could shatter Gavin's fragile innocence.

Marked by the family's cursed inheritance, Gavin's gray eyes inspire dread and awe wherever he goes.
Strangers pray when he passes, others bow in reverence, but Gavin himself remains blind to their meaning. As he grows under Elm's roof, he is drawn into a world where love is forbidden, loyalty is treacherous, and the line between devotion and destruction begins to blur.

Why do the deaths in his bloodline follow the same chilling pattern? What truth binds Elm to the shadows? And who is Steph - the ghost of a name that tempers even Elm's darkest cruelty?

Caught between his own innocence and a monstrous potential lurking within, Gavin must uncover the secret of his eyes and the curse devouring his family. But some loves are curses. And some curses demand blood.
