As the chieftain's daughter, her path was sealed: a strategic marriage, a quiet life, a duty to her people. But the sea has its own plans. When a battered ship crashes onto the coast carrying strangers-speaking a language only she can understand-Celeste's world begins to shift. One of them, a cold and guarded man with eyes like frost and skin like moonlight, pulls her into something she doesn't yet have words for. He's dangerous. Distant. Definitely hiding something. And yet, every glance feels like a dare. Every silence, a secret. Drawn into his world, Celeste makes a choice that will cost her everything she's ever known. What begins as a journey across oceans becomes a quiet war between desire and duty, freedom and fate. Because falling for him wasn't part of the plan. But neither was being seen for who she truly is. ⚠️This story contains mature and potentially distressing themes that may not be suitable for all readers. Please read with care.
