To Adeline, Victor had always been like a star in the sky, the moon behind the clouds, the snow on a mountaintop–something dazzling but forever out of reach.

Loving him in secret had always been sweet but painful, a secret she could never confess.

She had admired him for years, but never once had she dared hope they could become something more.

So how could it be that the man she stumbled into at her lowest moment… was him?

Memories flashed of his tall, graceful figure on the university track, and her chest ached with that same bittersweet longing.

Every young girl dreams of giving her first love, her untouched self, to the man she truly adores. But dreams don’t always come true,

She and Victor were destined to remain two parallel lines–she could watch him, but never reach him.

But she didn’t want to die tonight, not like this. She wanted to live.

Forcing down the ache in her heart, she threw her arms around him.

“I was set up too. I need your help…”

Her words were swallowed by the heat of Victor’s kiss, wild and consuming.

Her lips carried that cool, subtle fragrance again, teasing him deeper into madness.

For the first time in his life, the man who had always kept women at arm’s length, who swore he would never marry, never touch, found himself addicted.

Like a god who once believed himself untouchable, only to fall into the world of mortals, stripped of pride, admitting he was just a man.
