People have spent years turning Zakai into some kind of monster.
Scarred by a tragic apartment fire that took place when he was only eleven years old, Zakai has lived most of his life hiding from the world.
With rumors surrounding his name and judgment following him everywhere he goes, isolation became safer than being seen.
Meanwhile, Kinsley never expected a simple errand job to lead her to him.
What starts as grocery store runs and brief interactions slowly becomes something neither of them saw coming.
Because beneath Zakai's cold and distant exterior is a man struggling with years of guilt, grief, and loneliness. And the closer Kinsley gets, the harder it becomes to walk away.
Some scars never fade, people just teach you how to live with them.
