Knives are digging into his skin, but broken nerve endings cannot deliver pain. He is bleeding, but the blood does not belong to him. Blood has never belonged in him, just as that beating organ has never belonged in the compartment of his left chest. Crackle, pop. His brain is slowly shutting down, but he only sees her. Sienna.

Some cages don't have locks. Evelyn's childhood home has never felt empty-not after the accident, not after she lost her parents, and not after Jace moved in. He's always been there. Through every scraped knee, every heartbreak, every moment that shaped her into the person she is. So she doesn't question the way he watches over her. The way he always knows where she's been. The way the house feels smaller than it used to. Jace is struggling. Just like she is. And she won't abandon him now. But when Knox enters her world, something shifts. For the first time, she feels like she can breathe. Like the walls around her aren't closing in. And that's when she starts to notice them-the cracks in the life she thought she understood. The silence that lingers too long. The way Jace watches when he thinks she isn't looking. The feeling of being trapped in a house that was never supposed to be a cage. Something is wrong. It always has been. And by the time she realizes the difference between love and captivity-it might be too late to run.
