The night the ocean swallowed her, the world moved on.Cars still crossed the bridge. Lights still glittered on the water. And the name Camil Helios was filed away as another tragedy briefly mourned, quickly forgotten. But Camil survived.She woke to salt in her lungs, blood on her skin, and a future that no longer belonged to her. Her name was taken. Her past erased. To live, she became Camalina Alex smaller, quieter, careful in every breath she took. A girl who learned that hiding was safer than hoping, and silence more reliable than trust. She does not remember being beautiful.Others remind her. Eyes linger too long. Strangers stare. Trouble follows her even when she walks with her head down. Beauty, she learns, is not a gift it is an invitation. And someone accepts it. Llewellyn Azazel rules the city from glass and steel, a man feared for his precision and obedience to no one. Six years ago, he stopped smiling. Four years ago, something inside him broke beyond repair. Love was not something he believed in until the girl the ocean claimed disappeared from his life. When Camalina crosses his path, alive and unchanged in the ways that matter, recognition hits like a wound reopening. She was never supposed to return. And now that she has, he will not let her vanish again. As secrets resurface and enemies close in, Camalina is forced to confront the truth buried beneath her survival: the past does not stay dead, and neither do the men who loved her or hunted her. In a world where power decides who lives and who is erased, one thing becomes clear: Her beauty is dangerous. His love is worse. And between them lies a truth sharp enough to destroy them both.

Love was not stolen from him. It was erased. Ethan was once a man of warmth and quiet dreams, a chef who believed a life shared was enough. That life ended the day his wife survived and forgot him. When Emberlyn Scarlet, the Blazing Valkyrie and one of humanity’s greatest hunters, awoke without her memories, the truth became a crime. Ethan was branded a liar, beaten in the streets, and cast out while the woman he loved watched without recognition. What remained was a promise made in blood and rain. He will become strong enough to stand beside her again. Two years later, legends whisper his name. Wreathed in lightning and wielding enchanted blades, Ethan returns as something far beyond human. Power, rank, and fear now follow him wherever he walks. But strength cannot heal what was stolen, and the woman he loves still looks through him as if he is nothing more than empty air. As Emberlyn struggles with dreams of a life she can’t remember and a longing she can’t explain, the distance between them grows more dangerous than any monster. This is a story of love and loss. Of memories erased and bonds tested by time. And of a devastating truth: What if strength was never the answer and love alone isn’t enough when only one heart remembers it ever existed?

SYNOPSIS: In the grand gardens of House Rochefort, where golden sunlight bathed the world in warmth, Lucian's world turned to ice. With a cruel scoff, she cast him aside, condemning him as nothing more than a foolish peasant who had dared to dream too high. For Celine Rochefort, men were her game, and their ruin, her victory. Trapped beneath her wreckage, revenge becomes Lucian's only refuge. But can he destroy the woman he once loved, or will she tear him apart once more? After all, he was not a male lead who could claim a happy ending, and not a villain deserving of an end befitting his cruelty. No, he was just a second male lead, made to help things bloom, only to wilt behind the curtains.
