Winterlyn Frost has always felt different, haunted by nightmares and plagued with a deep-rooted sense of dread. As a frail child, his parents sought the help of a fortune teller who chillingly foretol d that Winterlyn’s fate was too light, hinting at an early demise. Desperate for answers, they entered into a Dark Union with Lord Beancastle, the enigmatic ruler of the Underworld. While this dark pact seemingly restores Winterlyn's health, it casts a long shadow over his existence. As Winterlyn approaches graduation, a pivotal stage in his life, he discovers that the powerful deity tied to his fate might not be what he expected. Just when he thought he could break free from the constraints of the Dark Union, a mysterious figure swathed in a black trench coat crosses his path, igniting a series of events that unravels his understanding of reality. A chance encounter shifts his world, thrusting him into a sinister game, where shadows and secrets cling to every corner of his life. Amidst high school chaos, budding relationships, and academic pressures, Winterlyn learns a harrowing truth—he is a pawn in a cosmic chess match, with forces beyond his comprehension vying for his soul. With graduation looming, a sequence of eerie occurrences and unsettling coincidences cast him deeper into a realm of supernatural intrigue. His ability to sense death becomes both a blessing and a curse, leaving him wrestling with the weight of his newfound responsibilities and the haunting revelations of his past. As the lines between the living and the dead blur, Winterlyn must confront the truth about his fate, the true nature of Lord Beancastle, and the purpose of the Dark Union. With each revelation comes a desperate race against time to reclaim his life before the darkness claims him forever. In a world where nothing is as it seems, can Winterlyn untangle the threads of destiny, or will he fall victim to the very shadows he has long tried to escape?
