"Bound Beyond Spirits" is a story of love, loyalty, and resilience set against the backdrop of a world where unseen spirits and humans coexist. Evan, a young man accustomed to the challenges of life, carries a quiet strength and a sensitivity that draws spirits toward him. Yet he's unaware that one spirit in particular, Alaric, watches over him not just with duty but with an intense, unspoken devotion that sets him apart from other spirits bound to protect humans.
Alaric is no ordinary guardian. Once abandoned like many of his kind, he has found purpose in safeguarding Evan, whose kindness and trust have restored something precious within him. Their bond goes beyond protection; it's a rare and powerful connection that defies the usual constraints between spirits and humans. Yet, this relationship doesn't go unnoticed by darker forces-other spirits, twisted by betrayal and resentment, who cannot understand Alaric's loyalty. These malevolent beings resent the bond between Alaric and Evan, seeing it as a weakness, and are determined to sever it.
When Evan is kidnapped, Alaric must face these vengeful spirits head-on, risking everything to rescue him. The journey tests the strength of their bond and brings Evan and Alaric to confront their feelings and the depth of their reliance on one another. Alaric's loyalty becomes Evan's lifeline in the darkest of moments, and Evan, in turn, begins to realize just how much Alaric means to him.
After the rescue, they embark on a new chapter, slowly healing and deepening their relationship. Their bond grows from companionship to love, each moment of vulnerability drawing them closer together. Alaric soothes Evan's fears, while Evan shows Alaric a side of life he thought he'd lost: a future filled with trust, warmth, and simple, shared joys. They go on their first real date, a tender experience where Alaric finally steps out of the shadows to reveal more of his spirit in human form....
He was so close, his breath hit my lips. His eyes darted from my eyes to my lips. I stared intently, awaiting his next move. His lips fell near my ear.
"Shut up and kiss me" He whispered roughly. A chill shot up my spine. I pulled back, staring at his eyes and leaned in..
