Y/N moves to a new city to bury her past. She doesn’t tell anyone what happened… but she knows one thing: she refuses to be weak again. She gets a job at an elegant yet unsettling bar. The place has a bad reputation, but it pays well, and she doesn’t have many options. On her first night, she sees him. Kael Vardis. A man people instinctively avoid. Cold eyes, controlled movements… and something dark that seems to follow him like a shadow. Kael isn’t just a customer. He’s one of the most dangerous men in the city. And somehow… he’s interested in Y/N.
