Some Winds Drive People Mad

‿❀°‿❀°

“Don’t you want revenge, my lady?”

Ino Clowen, a woman who married Alexion Rutland, the master of the house that destroyed hers, to survive.
To her, merely enduring a hollow existence, comes a man with a dangerous offer: Kieran Lennox.

“He wants to possess you, and you want revenge on him. Do you know what would make him suffer the most? Make him fall in love with you, then love someone else.”

Ino takes Kieran’s hand, choosing vengeance over submission, seeking to break free from Alexion’s obsessive grip.

“So how about it? Why not try loving me?”

Lonely for so long, she finds herself drawn ever deeper into Kieran’s dangerously magnetic charm, occasionally cloaked in surprising gentleness…

But eventually, she discovers that from the very beginning, she was nothing more than a pawn—a tool to destroy Alexion and the House of Rutland.

“…The moment you first suggested revenge, I knew you’d be the one to ruin me.”

Meanwhile, as Kieran uncovers truths long buried beneath layers of misunderstanding, he realizes his own plan is beginning to spiral out of control.

And in the end, his scheme unleashes a storm powerful enough to shake not just Alexion, but Kieran and Ino themselves.
A storm enough to drive someone mad.
