When Dreams Wake

♡ ABOUT ♡

Winter has taken over Linkon City, but the cold inside cuts deeper.

Zayne tried to disappear after losing control and hurting you. He's terrified of what he might become, of the darkness inside him called Dawnbreaker. But you're not afraid of either version of him.

You convince him to stay. Just a few days to prove he's not the monster he thinks he is. But as boundaries blur and Dawnbreaker surfaces more often, careful restraint gives way to desperate need.

You're caught between two versions of the same man — one who's afraid to touch you, and one who's forgotten what it means to be touched at all.

Can you reach them both before Zayne disappears again?
