Cyrus Calder was never supposed to escape. As a male Frostborn, he is rarer than rare, valuable enough to be protected, studied, hunted, and locked away by people who call their obsession love. After years inside a cage built from concern, duty, and bloodline secrets, Cyrus finally runs. Now he lives in Grayhaven, a quiet coastal city where the sea feels close enough to promise freedom. By day, he hides behind messy hair and a forgettable academy uniform, just another tired final-year student sleeping through math class. By night, he works at The Full Moon Lounge, earning tips, saving every dollar, and tasting all the ordinary pleasures he was once denied. Cheap food. A small apartment. A paycheck. A walk by the water. To Cyrus, that is paradise. But freedom is fragile when too many women know what he is. His composed classmate begins watching him like a mystery she intends to solve. His elegant coworker treats kindness like something that can become ownership. His teacher-landlord’s concern reaches too close to his door. A police detective says she only wants to protect him, yet somehow always knows where he has been. And somewhere behind all of them waits the woman who put a ring on his finger, a ring he cannot remove. Cyrus has one reliable defense. “I lost my memory.” It is a clean lie. A useful lie. A lie that keeps questions away. Until the wrong word makes him flinch. Until the women realize his cold, harmless act is full of cracks. Until the runaway Frostborn learns that escaping the cage was only the beginning. Because the women who found him do not want revenge. They want him back. And this time, they plan to make sure he never runs again.

Cyrus Calder n'aurait jamais dû s'échapper. En tant que Né-du-Givre de sexe masculin, il est plus rare que rare, assez précieux pour être protégé, étudié, traqué et enfermé par des gens qui qualifient leur obsession d'amour. Après des années passées dans une cage bâtie d'inquiétude, de devoir et de secrets de lignée, Cyrus finit par s'enfuir. Il vit maintenant à Grayhaven, une paisible cité côtière où la mer semble assez proche pour promettre la liberté. Le jour, il se cache derrière des cheveux en bataille et un uniforme d'académie banal, simple étudiant de dernière année épuisé qui somnole en cours de maths. La nuit, il travaille au Full Moon Lounge, gagnant des pourboires, économisant chaque dollar et goûtant à tous les plaisirs ordinaires qui lui furent autrefois refusés. Nourriture bon marché. Un petit appartement. Une paie. Une promenade au bord de l'eau. Pour Cyrus, c'est le paradis. Mais la liberté est fragile quand trop de femmes savent ce qu'il est. Sa camarade de classe si posée commence à l'observer comme un mystère qu'elle a l'intention de résoudre. Son élégante collègue traite la gentillesse comme quelque chose qui peut se transformer en propriété. L'inquiétude de son professeur et propriétaire se rapproche un peu trop de sa porte. Une détective de la police dit ne vouloir que le protéger, mais sait pourtant toujours où il est allé. Et quelque part derrière elles toutes attend la femme qui lui a passé une bague au doigt, une bague qu'il ne peut retirer. Cyrus n'a qu'un seul moyen de défense fiable. « J'ai perdu la mémoire. » C'est un mensonge parfait. Un mensonge utile. Un mensonge qui éloigne les questions. Jusqu'à ce que le mot de trop le fasse tressaillir. Jusqu'à ce que les femmes réalisent que son jeu d'acteur froid et inoffensif est plein de failles. Jusqu'à ce que le Né-du-Givre en fuite apprenne que s'échapper de la cage n'était que le début. Car les femmes qui l'ont retrouvé ne veulent pas se venger. Elles veulent le récupérer. Et cette fois, elles comptent bien s'assurer qu'il ne s'enfuie plus jamais.
