“There is no kindness that survives in me, human. Nothing for you to nurture and grow. I am hollow… And so are you.”
With the blackout still swallowing the world, fae warriors invading it, and Bee taken from me, my hope is dying. All I want is to survive this harsh journey and be reunited with her.
That’s the promise. The bargain. Samick holds that bargain. And with it, he holds my life in his cold hands. I started terrified that he would change his mind and end me.
Just to save himself the bother. But now, I have a whole new fear rising— I fear what this is becoming. I fear the rotten tether growing between us.
I now face a whole other danger in this dark, dead world. The danger of his attention—and my own vile self.
