Hey y'all! This is my first story I'm posting here, but it's definitely my proudest work. I've been writing fanfiction stories for a few years now and I've decided that now is the time to publish this one. I'm changing names to not be fanfiction because it doesn't really have anything to do with the story itself, but I hope you like it! It's all about this guy that advocates for demons and stands up for them when the whole world is telling him not to. Will his actions change the stances on everyone's opinions? Or will it be all for nothing? Also feel free to criticize or help me fix some things here and there, I'm happy to listen to your suggestions.

"When the night fades into dawn's palette..." Sex, drugs and the death-dealing pressure to make money night after night - It's a steep, downward spiral which 20-year-old Elijah Everdeen has found himself stuck in ever since his parents died. If it weren't for his two siblings, he would have given up years ago. For a long time, he wanted to, thought about it every day even. Sometimes - in the cruelest, darkest of nights - he still does. But if this black-and-white world has really become Elijah's grim reality, then why is this young, mysterious man capable of adding color and a heartbeat to this dreadfully achromatic still life Eli is trapped in?

Also, this is a boyxboy story, so if you don't like hot steamy action between two boys, this is not the story for you. If you don't like it you shouldn't even be reading this anyway and I will not tolerate hate. You do not choose your sexuality and no one else has the right to make someone feel bad about who they are. Also, if any of you are having problems, or the story has triggered you, please inbox me.
