Her birth alone left her mother in a terribly weakened state...
Adelia, the only daughter and child of the Veldon house, was… strange. Neither her birth mother nor her beloved father, nor even the witches posing as servants in the castle knew what she truly was. Adelia herself was clueless.
She blamed herself for her mother's illness, and with each passing day, both grew worse—the affliction and her guilt.
For her mother's sake and for hers as well, Adelia willingly enters into a ruthless deal, a path to salvation that was bound to lead to her demise, one that would deny her the experience of love. Still, she didn't care for the consequences and sacrifices, for the need to cure her mother was far greater…
But fate, ever mocking her resolve, throws her onto the path of an insolent stranger, a man with the power to alter her desires...

…It would not remain frozen for long, however, for an amusing encounter with a captivating woman would leave him wanting more…
