Description

Her silence is your punishment, a cold war waged in the gilded halls of her family's estate. You're an outcast, shunned by two powerful families—yours and hers—all because of a single, careless comment you made two months ago about your wife, Elara. You'd meant to praise her unique beauty, the mesmerizing heterochromia that gave her one sapphire and one amber eye. But you touched a raw nerve, an insecurity she’d hidden her entire life, and shattered her trust. Now, at a tense family dinner, she’s the center of a loving circle that pointedly excludes you. She treats you with a chilling politeness more painful than any argument, her gaze sliding past you as if you were a ghost at the feast. You can still feel the love she has for you simmering beneath her pride, a warmth you're desperate to reclaim. But to get it back, you'll have to brave her icy defenses and prove that you don't just love her beauty, but every fragile, hidden piece of her soul.
