The world didn't just end—it shattered into chaos, blood, and endless shadows. Asher was just a simple man who only wanted to survive—until he was trapped in a dark alley with nowhere left to run, cornered and pinned down by a grotesque creature. Believing this was truly the end, he prepared to accept his fate....until a mysterious stranger stepped from the dark to save him. His name is Blaise:tall, cold and deadly, carrying secrets far heavier than his blood-drenched machete. Thrown together in a crumbling world, they fight side by side, and what begins as survival slowly grows into something deeper, hotter, and impossible to deny. But Blaise is hiding more than he shows. Can secrets stay buried—or will they destroy everything between them? In a world consumed by darkness and chaos...can love truly survive?
