Beauty and the Beast retelling with a twist: A thousand years ago, a djinn fell in love with a human. How can two ever unite when one is created with fire and the other from clay? Some mistakes are so grave that generations pay for them.

People have called him Beast for so long that he no longer recalled his name. Despite the comfortable surroundings, his life in captivity has been stagnant, with no hope of escape. Until one day, something unexpected creates ripples in his life, and he discovers a new purpose to live for.

Safira's family has always ignored her. No one has cared about her since the day her mother died. Yet, her heart broke anew when her father exchanged her for his freedom. Though her Mistress is a kind, gentle woman, the idea of being an unwanted daughter keeps her up at night. And in those moments, books become her best friend.

Two souls, as different as can be, are brought together by their passion for reading. However, no one can predict what the future might hold.
