Adams’ POV

The chilly atmosphere in the break room is and conference hall hadn’t fully lifted since the news circulated.

Simon Pryce is dead.

I still couldn’t come to terms with the fact even though I’d been the one to find the one to find his cold body. Janice’s scream still echoed in my head. It reminds me of the fact that Simon is gone. He’d been a genuinely nice and hardworking man and I’d liked him.

The nightmares had started again.

That, coupled with exhausting naps and the grief had probably been the reason I had forgotten Kehan had hugged Janice and I off the scene when workers had come around in response to Janice’s scream.

Something had vibrated on his person.

I stared out the window, the city’s skyline blurred by a haze that felt like a warning more than like weather. Something rotten was festering beneath our pristine projects, and I wasn’t even talk about Simoon’s body. I could feel it crawling, and it came with the feeling that something is about to go terribly wron

    Adams’s POV “If this isn’t well contained, it could shut down what’s left of the final phase. So, I need names, I need incident reports, I need a timeline and I need this fixed. Questions?” Murmurs of deliberation erupted “Looks like we’re the ones being babysat,” Jessica whispered to me. “Girl, your dad’s still the big boss around here even if he isn’t involved in management here anymore, your job’s secure. So, depart from me, devil,” I deserved an Oscars awards. Anything short of flawless performance and Jessica would pick up on my discomfort with this whole situation. My eyes barely left him, short of gawking. Several attempts to veil my eyes were made, few worked. Our eyes kept meeting over several heads, severely embarrassing. “Anything interesting over there I should know about?” Alex singled Jessica and myself out… like we weren’t generating enough spotlight without his help.“Ass-wipe,” Jessica muttered covering her mouth with a file.“The site manager would have logged an

    POV: Kehan (Alex) They call it “New York.” The city never sleeps. But neither do lost souls. The first few weeks here felt like being trapped inside a carnival mirror, everything warped and screaming in colors. Buildings so tall they could’ve been ladders to the gods. Noise in every breath. Scent on every wind. I remember gagging the first time I stepped out of Isaac’s back room. My skin, still raw from shifting, shrank under the weight of it all. I wasn’t supposed to be here. But that’s how it is with an Inugami, we don’t choose. We answer. Something goes missing in the in-between, and we’re pulled across the Veil like thread through a needle. No warning. No map. Just the itch in the blood and the weight of a mission that hasn’t yet named itself. “You were summoned,” Isaac told me, the first night I could stand upright without blacking out after getting beaten up... “life of a stray” had been his comforting words. “Either something’s missing, or someone is. Or the goddess is jus

    Adams’ POV It’s been a year since Alex left. Twelve months of peeling myself off the floor, night after night. A year of turning silence into something less suffocating. I never thought I'd come out the other side of that storm. But I did. Credit goes mostly to Jessica. “You’re not dying of heartbreak on my watch,” she’d told me as she shoved a mug of hot chocolate into my hands and wrapped Faith, in a blanket burrito next to me on the couch. “You’re pretty... handsome,” she corrected and laughed when I gave her the stink eye. “You’re smart, and you smell like sandalwood and fresh sin. You’ll survive.” Jessica was the kind of best friend who didn’t wait for you to ask for help. She just showed up with wine, ice cream, or her grumpy almost-teenager, Faith, who could melt steel with that grumpy stare of hers. “It’s that age that transitions to full blown angst, she’ll be fine,” Jessica had quipped before I got in the matter of Faith’s glare. Jessica kept me breathing, lau

    POV: KehanI followed Adams into the kitchen after putting on the clothes he gave me. I had seen him do that many times before so it was easy. The quiet familiarity of the space somehow comforting. I was still so new to this human life, this body but the kitchen, the rhythm of cooking, seemed to settle something inside me. It felt right, even if I wasn’t entirely sure why.Adams gave me a once over, nodded his agreement with the fit, then moved around the kitchen with practiced ease, his back to me as he opened cabinets and pulled out ingredients. I hovered just behind him, unsure of what to do, but feeling an urge to contribute. I scanned the kitchen, the jars, the bags of groceries - and his senses sharpened. He could smell everything—the earthy scent of potatoes, the sweet tang of onions. The urge was there again, like something pulling me forward. I stepped closer, bare feet padding softly against the cold tile. I reached up to one of the high shelves, fingers brushing against a

    POV: KehanThe couch creaked beneath me again. Softer than stone, softer than anything I’d ever known, actually, but it didn’t feel like safety. Not necessarily. Just unfamiliar.I curled into myself, arms crossed over my chest, trying to conserve warmth. It was gone. The fur. The coat that had once protected me like armor. Now there was only this skin - thin, naked, fragile. Cold.My back ached from the shift, bones still settling, nerves too raw. I wanted to sleep. Not because I was tired but because waking was harder. Every second awake brought more awareness, and awareness meant remembering.Or trying to.But my memories came in flickers, like distant stars through the fog.A gate.Fire.Screaming.Running - No, falling.I tensed at the sound of footsteps. Not heavy. Hesitant. Paused near the doorway.Him.I could feel and smell him before I heard the breath catch in his throat. That human.Adams.He stood there, staring. I kept still, evened my breath. Let my body lie for me. Ma
