Synopsis:

SANTO
I've lived in darkness for as long as I can remember. In this life, light is a luxury no one can afford, least of all me. A wife is a weakness and love is a liability I can't risk. But then Vasilisa was handed to me- beautiful, dutiful and so much more than I ever expected. Her light threatens to unravel the shadows I've carefully constructed around myself. She chips away the ice, drawing me in, even as I fear what she'll find beneath. How can I protect her from the dangers of this world when the greatest threat to her might be me?

VASILISA
Marrying Santo was never about love- it was about duty. Yet, from the moment I met him, I couldn't look away. Intimidating yet intelligent, distant yet magnetic, Santo is a man of contradictions. Behind his cool exterior, I see flickers of someone else, someone darker that I can't help but want to understand. I've always dreamed of a love that could rival the fairytales, and for a moment, I thought Santo could be my ever after. But as I step deeper into his world, I realize that uncovering the man behind the mask might cost me everything.
