Blood & Bloom

Los Olas doesn't heal. It sharpens.

Lowen lives two lives. By day, he's a florist in a quiet shop called Larkspur & Lace, arranging delicate blooms with steady hands. By night, he's Soot-a mutant who slips through smoke and shadow, hunted by the very heroes the world worships.

When he falls into an unexpected romance with Seung-Jae, a bartender with a gentle smile and secrets of his own, Lowen dares to believe in something fragile: normalcy. But Los Olas is a crucible, and love here is another weapon waiting to be turned against you.

As riots ignite and the Steel Angels tighten their grip on mutants, loyalties fracture. Cecily, once the perfect hero, begins leaking the Commission's darkest truths. Miklaus, sworn to the system as Aerie, finds himself drawn to the man he's meant to destroy. And Wildfire-the prophet of flame-prepares to crown herself in martyrdom, ready to burn the city so the world will finally look.

In a storm of betrayal, propaganda, and blood, Lowen must decide what kind of monster he's willing to become-and whether there's anything worth saving when the smoke clears.

Romance. Revolution. Ruin.
Los Olas will not survive untouched. And neither will they.
