Estrella ist am Boden zerstört. Wochenlang hat Caelum sie mit geflüsterten Versprechungen und manipulativen Halbwahrheiten umgarnt, um ihr Herz zu erobern. Bis er schließlich die Wahrheit über sich offenbarte: Er ist Caldris – ein Gott, über den nur hinter vorgehaltener Hand und mit geflüsterten Worten gesprochen wird. Und er ist ihr Fae-Gemahl.

Auf ihrer Reise trifft sie auf den attraktiven Caelum, der wie sie mit einem seltsamen Mal gekennzeichnet ist und zu dem sie eine unbestreitbare Anziehung verspürt.
