Until It's Less Dark

DESCRIPTION: Devonte Armani is seventeen, fragile in ways no one bothers to understand. After a tragic lost, guilt eats him alive, his parents feel distant, and being openly gay makes him a target. He loves too softly in a world that punishes softness, until hating himself feels like survival.

Jayden Romari is nineteen feared in the streets, worshipped in the music scene, empty behind the image. Orphaned young, built from violence and silence, he learned power is safer than feeling. He doesn't do weakness. He doesn't do love.

So when their worlds collide, Jayden hates Devonte on sight. But when he sees Devonte being hurt, something dark and dangerous wakes up inside him. Obsession replaces hatred. Protection turns possessive. And Jayden is forced to face the one truth that terrifies him most Devonte Armani isn't just a weakness... he's everything he never knew he needed.
