Prologue

Snow is continuously descending on the thin grasses of the forest as trees are slowly covered under the sleet of ice, whiteness extending all around making it more stunning than it was before.

She blinked her eyes at him, suddenly acquiring her senses and looked at the evil oceanic eyes, horrified.
