Freedom. Both mental and physical, it's something Night and Sunray have scarcely known throughout the years of their relationship. Mentally, they were forced to stick to the infamous rule of keeping their identities secret from all--friends and enemies. Physically, the barrier between light and darkness kept them from touching each other under normal circumstances. Both walls were even harder than normal because they were the first of nine pairs of gem holders to fall in love. Until everything changes in a single day. Surrounded by shocks at every angle--the discovery of Tizian's survival, the unexpected defeat of Preciser, meeting an unlikely friend, becoming conscious lovers, identities being revealed at last--Alex and Jakira find themselves facing a new enemy, barely after the defeat of the old one. This new enemy seems more clever, more intimidating, more unpredictable, and more unsettling than Preciser had ever been. Life becomes more difficult than ever before, and both teens can't help but feel that this entire ordeal will leave them both changed forever. TWs: depression, violence, near-death sequences, PTSD episodes, panic/anxiety attacks, SEVERE anxiety, mentions of suicide/suicidal thoughts

[COMPLETED ~ TO BE PUBLISHED... eventually] Sunray was the light, lonely and shining. She was a beacon of hope to the public, but quiet in her own life. To everyone else, anyway. Night was her shadow, sworn to protect her just as much as his home. He was a quiet one, to everyone else, anyway. He was the hero who would rather battle a giant than talk to strangers. They would do anything for each other, even without knowing the real person behind the masks. They were best friends, secretly in love, who didn't know each other's real names. Until they accidentally met in real life, and couldn't figure out why it felt more like déjà vu than anything else . . . ------------------------------------------------------------------- In case the intro of Chapter 2 leaves you wondering, yes, there's a prequel. It's just not out yet. XD Possible TWs: Depression, direct mentions of suicide and PTSD, anxiety attacks, brief mention of drug addiction, death [starvation], violence (typically non-graphic) (Cover art by @Avichayil4 :D) Enjoy!
