He was the only light in her dark life. His silent care and calm tenderness made her give everything she had and approach him humbly.
However, his tenderness never belonged to her. His world, with its responsibilities and shackles, could not tolerate a helpless woman. A misunderstanding, a turn, and she completely disappeared from his world with her heart full of scars.
