Introduction

What if the person you loved began to vanish the moment you walked away?

In a world where vampires hide in plain sight and ancient curses bind hearts tighter than blood, Iman never expected her life to intertwine with Lucien-a creature of the night whose very existence depends on staying close to her.

This is a story of love that defies time, of danger that lurks in every heartbeat, and of a bond so powerful it could rewrite fate itself.

Welcome to a tale where distance kills, and closeness saves.
