You were new to your job, tasked with studying anomalies and caring for the creatures that didn't immediately attack when approached. You loved your work and held no ill feelings toward Urbenshade-after all, they protected humanity by capturing the dangerous anomalies and creatures that could wreak havoc in the human world. But everything changed when you met Z-13, known as Sebastian Solace-a human mutated by Urbenshade into a monstrous, over three-meter-tall sea creature hybrid. He despised everyone and everything... until he met you. For the first time, someone treated him like a human being-acknowledging his emotions and showing him a kindness he hadn't felt since being trapped in this nightmare. What happens when a mutated fishman's gaze lingers longer than it should-watching, waiting, never quite letting go? When his presence becomes an unshakable shadow at your side, blurring the line between protection and possession? And when the quiet moments between you begin to hum with a tension that neither of you fully understands, the boundary between care and something far more consuming starts to fade.
