Ice-cold lord ruins your life 'cause he's obsessed, then you run, and now he's chasing you through a blizzard, all messed up on feelings he doesn't understand. Basically, you're stuck in a frozen wasteland with a dude who's losing his grip on reality, and you're the reason why.

Eldoria's this super harsh kingdom, right? Think jagged mountains, creepy forests, and this one city, Aethelgard, where everything's about power. And running that show is Kaelith Veyne. Dude’s like, ice cold, totally in control of everything, and everyone’s scared of him. He’s got this whole “emotions are weak” thing going on, thanks to his messed-up childhood.
Then, you show up. Just a village girl, but you're not having any of his crap. And he's… obsessed. Like, not in a good way. He wants you, but not like a normal person. He's got to own you.
So, he totally ruins your family. Like, frames them for treason, the whole shebang. Then he gives you this “deal”: your family lives if you become his. You agree, but you're not about to play nice. You make him sign a contract, no love, no loyalty, and you walk when he's done with you.
Thing is, the more time you spend with him, the more you see the cracks in his armor. He's not just a monster, he's a messed-up dude who's never known anything but control. And he's losing it. He's getting obsessed.
Then, you find out he was the one who destroyed your family. Boom. All hell breaks loose. He tears up the contract, says you're his, and you run. Straight into the freezing wilderness.
And he chases you. Like, full-on, tearing through the snow, like he's lost his mind. He finds you half-frozen, and instead of dragging you back in chains, he... he's gentle. He asks you to stay. Like, asks.
Now, you're stuck with this dude who's totally flipped his lid, and you’re realizing you actually have power over him. He's got your body, but you've got his heart. And you've got to decide if you can even deal with that.
