Em never learned how to be loved - only how to survive.
After leaving an abusive relationship, he tries to rebuild his life quietly: a café job, skipped therapy sessions, and nights spent pretending the past doesn't still hurt.
Alessandro is patient. Gentle. Dangerous in ways Em doesn't fully understand.
Loving Ale means safety for the first time... and fear that never fully leaves. His ties to the Italian Mafia bring a world Em was never meant to survive, and a future that terrifies him almost as much as being alone.
As Em learns how to ask for help, how to eat without guilt, and how to believe he deserves tenderness, he starts to hope.
He was learning how to love.
He just didn't get enough time.
