Bound by shadow, written in silver

"Some secrets are buried in the dark. Others are written in silver, waiting for the blood to dry."

Crystal believed she knew what heartbreak felt like.
She knew the silence of a home turned cold, where a father's warmth withered into unpredictable storms. She knew the suffocation of a failed marriage, the sting of betrayal, and the bitter taste of public judgment.
She thought she had survived the worst of it when she packed her life into a suitcase and escaped to a city of rain, fog, and forgotten names.
She was wrong.

Because healing requires peace,
and peace is impossible when the shadows themselves begin to watch you.

It starts with a feeling: a prickle on the back of her neck, footsteps matching her pace through the mist, a lingering scent of cold ash and velvet in empty rooms. Someone is tracking her every move. Someone who knows where she goes, when she sleeps, and exactly how broken she truly is.
He doesn't stay in the dark to hide from her. He stays in the dark because he's waiting.

As the line between her past traumas and her present nightmare begins to blur, Crystal realizes the city isn't a sanctuary-it's a trap. And the mysterious stranger lurking in the shadows isn't just watching her...
He's claiming her.
