A girl moved to a new city, trying to start a new simple life, and to leave behind everything that has ever happened. She was oblivious about the people in her life playing the main roles. She has been tortured and attacked so many times without knowing her fault. She doesn't have anyone whom she can trust or call anyone her friend. 

Life gets darker day by day and every new moment unfolds horrific mysteries and unread chapters of the past. 

Life has shown her a new path to walk on. The path where she will get the love of her life, her best friend, and her worst enemy. It's all about risking everything. 

She now has to put her trust in someone who could save her from dying a horrible death. Or else she would be giving her life without knowing the actual reasons for all the incidents happening in her life.

Damen had enough of the situation. He wiped his hand over his face and said, "Talk to me… please."
