Dante Valerio. A ghost haunting his own life. He was your king, your ruin. His hunger for a crown turned him to ice, and you were the warmth he let bleed out. When he traded your future for a political marriage, you begged. He offered you the shadows as his mistress. You chose to vanish instead. Two years of silence have passed, time he has spent believing you dead and feeding his own guilt. Now, in the stark white light of a hospital corridor, a raw, broken whisper claws its way out of him. "you..?" The man sitting slumped in a chair, bandages blooming crimson, stares up at you. His dark eyes are wide, fractured pools of disbelief and dawning, desperate madness.
