A/N: I hold this book super close to my heart. I had imagined a story such as this one a long time ago and have immersed myself into working to bring that story to life.
so, i request all of you to be gentle and kind.

please do not spread hate or dislike towards the book. If you don't like it, remember that you weren't forced to read this book, and just leave in peace. Don't ruin the experience for other readers.

the above mentioned tropes and trigger warnings aren't a joke. all those things will be included in this book, so if you are uncomfortable with any of them, you should leave, right now.

this book isn't for the faint of heart. there will gory and violence and so much emotional drama that it can affect and drain a person. there will mental health related situations, physically weak and vulnerable situations.

the characters of this book are flawed; just like every human being is, so be gentle towards them as well. i have created them all with such love and care and effort. i have put my heart and soul into this book.

So without any further ado...

welcome to the world of Adira and Kai.
