For centuries, Damon Salvatore and Y/N were an unstoppable force of nature. Bound by a fierce, dark love that survived the ages, they belonged to each other—until a sudden, cruel twist of fate tore them apart. Separated and searching, Y/N never stopped looking for him. So when rumors reach her that Damon is in Mystic Falls, she follows his trail straight back to his hometown. She comes expecting a reunion. Instead, she finds Stefan. Remembering the past—when Y/N was inseparable from Katherine Pierce—Stefan has never trusted her. To him, Y/N is a dangerous relic of Damon’s darkest impulses, a lethal predator who feeds on humans without remorse. Determined to protect his brother and keep Damon from slipping back into the monster he used to be, Stefan makes a desperate move: He kidnaps Y/N and chains her in the Salvatore basement, hiding her away in the dark. Now, Y/N is locked beneath the very floorboards Damon walks on every day, trapped by a brother who views her as a curse. And above her head, Damon has no idea the woman he spent centuries loving is trapped just feet below him—or how far she’ll go once she breaks free.
