Fragments In Gloaming

Cressia Evienne Martinez was born into the most powerful political family in the country.

Known as the Princess of Martinez, people admired her beauty, grace, and kindness. To the world, she looked untouchable, like delicate glass that could never break.

But behind the surname everyone envied was a daughter quietly drowning in the sins of her own family.

Then she met Raiden Harrison Xavierano. A man who despised everything the Martinez name stood for. He hated corruption. He hated politicians. And most of all, he hated her.

Every encounter became a battlefield, every conversation became another wound, until hatred slowly turned into the one thing neither of them ever expected.

Love.

But loving each other meant standing between justice and blood, between family and conscience.

And some love stories don't begin with happily ever after.

They begin with hell.
