"The son is the seed. The daughter is the soil. What grows from them will belong to neither world."
Jeune Moreau learned early that love was conditional. Her father's love came with requirements she could never meet. Her mother's love in her death. The only constant in her life was Elias-the half-brother who refused to leave her side, who cared for her through every fever, who looked at her like she hung the moon. She didn't realize devotion could become a cage.
Then she met Isaiah-a man who touches her like she's precious, not property. Who loves her gently, without conditions, without hunger. Who offers her something she never thought she'd have: a way out and a normal life outside her ancestral home.
But the Moreau family doesn't let go of what belongs to them.
And like the estate, their father's horses and land, Elias has always believed that Jeune belongs to him.
