Three years ago, everyone believed she died. Including the man who never stopped loving her. Before pride tore them apart, she was the only person who had ever seen the real Laxus Dreyar—the man behind the lightning, the silence, and the walls he built around his heart. When he lost himself, she walked away on a mission she never returned from... until now. The guild celebrates the return of the mage they thought was gone forever. But for Laxus, her return reopens wounds he spent years burying. He's no longer the arrogant man she left behind, yet becoming someone better doesn't make it any easier to let her back into the place only she ever belonged. As old feelings resurface and years of regret collide with second chances, they'll have to decide if love can survive the weight of the past—or if some hearts are too broken to find their way home.
