    Summary

    Moorhaven Hall is a house of whispers, and Lady Blackwell is its most silenced resident. For four years she has been the perfect wife to Baron Alistair Blackwell—dutiful, barren, and unseen. But when her husband hires a “specialist” to correct her supposed defect, she discovers that the cure he intends is far worse than the disease.
    Enter Sylus Qin: white-haired, red-eyed, and far too composed to be the charlatan he pretends to be. Summoned to perform an unthinkable task, he refuses—and in that refusal, offers something more dangerous.

    Together, physician and wife become conspirators, peeling back the lies that bind them both. What begins as an alliance forged in secrecy becomes a wager with everything at stake: her freedom, his future, and the ruin of a man who mistook ownership for love.
