His Sanctuary

A man whose hands carried the weight of countless sins.

A man who could watch the world burn and feel nothing.

He had never searched for redemption.

Never begged for forgiveness.

Never needed anyone.

Until her.

She arrived in his life like a misplaced star in an endless night sky-too gentle for his darkness, too pure for his ruined soul.

She smiled at a man everyone feared.

And for the first time, he found something worth protecting.

But monsters do not know how to love.

They know how to possess.

How to destroy.

How to keep what belongs to them.

And when the only sanctuary he has ever known becomes threatened, the world will learn why monsters were feared in the first place.

Because he can survive without mercy.

Without humanity.

Without salvation.

But never without her.

She was his sanctuary. And he would become her greatest storm.
