Book #2 of the Tides Trilogy
Four years ago, Nova and Victor stood at the edge of the Ember Sea and rewrote destiny. Tide and flame, heart and soul - their love burned through the impossible.
But magic doesn't keep the world spinning.
Now in their final year of college, Nova and Victor live separate lives in different cities, connected only by memories and a silence too heavy to break. Time and distance - and the pressure of becoming who everyone expects them to be - have pushed them apart.
Nova is studying marine arcana, training to become a global ambassador of the tide. Victor studies elemental theory, suppressing his flame so it won't consume him - or remind him of her. Neither of them speaks about the kiss that changed everything. Or the slow fade that followed.
When strange tides rise again in Seabrook - bringing visions, broken sky signs, and echoes of an ancient pull - they are forced to return home. But the place that once united them now feels unfamiliar. And so do they.
As the Ember Sea calls once more, Nova and Victor must face what was left unsaid. Regrets. Longing. The truth of what love meant - and what it couldn't withstand.
But fate, like the tide, doesn't always return what it takes.
Because some loves don't burn out...
They just drift away.

Nova had visions of him. Victor dreamed of her. Although they had never met, one thing was clear: they came from worlds apart-and their fates were never meant to intertwine. Right? If Zed's car hadn't broken down at Mount Rayburn, the experiment between Daywalkers and Vampires would've never happened. But what about Nova and Victor? How could the threads of fate pull two souls together against all odds? It was just a scouting mission. Until it wasn't. ___ Nova x Victor - Z-O-M-B-I-E-S 4 AU - No Camp Rayburn. No Seabrook.

At sunset, the sun and moon meet like fleeting lovers caught in the tender pause between day and night. The sun, golden and blazing, leans low on the horizon, casting its final warmth like a farewell kiss, while the moon rises shyly, silver and soft, slipping into the sky to take its place. For a brief moment, they share the sky-one fading, the other awakening-brushing past each other with the aching grace of a love that can never stay. Their time together is always too short, but in that quiet exchange of light, they whisper promises the stars will keep until they meet again. Daywalker, Hazel has never seen the moon Vampire, Victor has never seen the sun So what will happen when the sun and moon meet in person and not in visions or dreams victorxfemocComplete
