SAGE

I ran to disappear. Providence was supposed to be a quiet and untouched place. A fresh start. But then I met Reich Davidian.

Nothing escapes his gaze. Every word from his lips is a blade. And even as instinct begs me to turn away, something in me keeps finding its way back to him.

But I know that every storm hides a calm at its core. And I think I’ve found his.

The only question is if it will be the end of me.


REICH

I was made to destroy monsters. But she isn’t one of them. Instead, she’s the complication that could ruin everything.

Sage Holquinn is untamed, broken, and reckless enough to trespass on my property without realizing whose territory she’s stepped into. I should’ve turned her away. But distance is no longer an option.

She thinks she’s escaping the darkness.

She doesn’t realize she’s running straight into mine.
