After being kidnapped and missing for five long years, Beatrice Fox finally returned home. She expected her husband to cry in joy—but the truth couldn't be more different. Her husband had long reported her missing and applied for her death certificate, married a woman from a rich and influential family, and moved on to build a new family. At a lavish party, his new wife publicly humiliated Beatrice—reviving painful memories, spreading vicious, and declaring that she should have died. Throughout the ordeal, her husband offered not a single word in her defense. In despair, Beatrice turned to leave—until suddenly, the only heir of Blueport City's top family pulled her into his arms, his eyes glinting with mischief. "He doesn't want you? Well, I do."

In Black Salt, love is a sickness you can’t hide—a slow gnawing beneath the skin that leaves you hollowed, grayed, and eventually gone. No one stays long enough to see it through; they leave before the rot finishes its work. It’s what the town teaches you: when it starts, you run. You look away. You survive by pretending not to feel. But Atlas is tired of pretending. The halls of Black Salt High are full of kids pretending they don’t see each other’s bruised hearts, pretending their bones aren’t already whispering warnings. Still, he can’t forget the weight of a father who stayed—not out of love, but because he never felt it deep enough to decay. That truth lingers in Atlas like a second shadow. And then there’s Nova—the outsider with a storm in her bones. And Wren, all sharpness and fight. Milo, who cracks jokes to keep the silence at bay. Luce, who wears her thorns like jewelry. Together, they don’t know how to stop the rot. But they’re learning how to sit with it, how to name it, how to refuse the small, hollow deaths of pretending not to care. In a town where love is a death sentence, staying might be the bravest thing of all.

I called him in tears, confronting him about the unbearable intimacy between them. He remained silent for a long time before speaking coldly, "Are you done crying?" Then, he drove Michelle home.
