Crimson_Valentin

Synopsis 

Clara Bellamy has lived her life in the shadow of her twin sister, Elise. On their 18th birthday, a tragic accident claims Elise’s life, leaving Clara to grapple with overwhelming grief and guilt. As the family mourns, Clara’s parents make an unthinkable decision: she must take Elise’s place as the bride of Marcus, Elise’s heartbroken fiancé, in a bid to preserve family honor.

Marrying Marcus thrusts Clara into a life she never wanted, where she is constantly reminded that she will never be more than a substitute for the woman Marcus truly loved. Trapped in a marriage defined by coldness and indifference, Clara's spirit begins to wither. As she struggles to forge her own identity, Marcus remains consumed by his grief, unable to see Clara for who she truly is.

Years pass in a haze of unfulfilled longing, until one stormy night, Clara reaches her breaking point. With her heart heavy with sorrow, she makes a decision that will change both their lives forever. 

In a story of love, loss, and the haunting echoes of the past, Clara and Marcus must confront the pain that binds them and decide whether redemption is possible, or if some wounds can never be healed.
