Selena - The Moon Girl She was born beneath the light of the moon, belonging neither completely to humans nor to gods. Selena is a girl whose power is tied to the moon. At night, she becomes stronger-but with that strength comes an ancient curse. Vail - The Shadow Man. He can dissolve into darkness, disappear into other people's shadows, and appear where no one expects him. Legends are told about him, but no one knows who he was before he became the creature everyone fears. Selena and Vail are enemies. Their worlds are too different, their goals are opposite, and there is a reason they should never trust each other. But one day, Vail begins to act strangely. He finds himself near Selena more and more often. For some reason, he doesn't kill her when he has the chance. Sometimes, he protects her, even though he doesn't understand why. And his cold gaze lingers on her just a little longer than it should. Selena tells herself that it's nothing more than another game played by her enemy. But then why does her heart beat faster whenever he is near? And which of them was the first to cross the line between hatred and something far more dangerous? Because sometimes, the most frightening darkness is the one you willingly allow into your heart. The moon and the shadow were never meant to meet. But now that they have... Which one of them will consume the other?
