Live. Leap. Pretend. Forget.
Drowning in darkness. Sentenced to silence.
Fields and rain. Cathedral to cage.
Crunch. Squeak. Blood.
TY
She's my never. My fortress. My moon.
Rena Noire-the one I'm not allowed to touch.
As a Cabal leader with a sordid past, hell is all I've ever had to offer.
So, I've kept my distance from the menacing angel.
But the sand is blowing everywhere, the line growing fainter.
And as danger closes in, all I see is her.
My forbidden. My compass. The forever I'll burn for.
But it all comes back to one wrong choice.
RENA
As the youngest Noire sibling and heiress of our hospitality empire, I'm destined to be the heart, but never the head.
A princess locked in a bell tower.
That would be fine if Tytan Reynolds would storm my castle, but he's determined to stay on his side of the moat.
My far-fetched fantasy and my brothers' friend.
But when my world topples upside down, I glimpse the heat in his gaze.
I run. He chases.
He wants to shield. I belong to the dark.
Once we jump, the abyss with my tortured sailor is nothing like I expected.
Bound and gagged. Bullets of freedom. Time is ticking.
Nothing left to lose.
