You thought it would be a day like any other. You didn’t sleep much the night before. Memories haunted you, and nightmares kept you from closing your eyes for long. It wasn’t always like this—there were nights when everything felt normal. But not tonight.

You had dark circles under your eyes, but you forced yourself to get up and buy some groceries. Maybe a snack could fix this, right? You were scanning the shelves for something quick to replenish your energy when a husky voice sounded next to you.

''Take this.'' The man smiled at you, a playful sparkle reflecting in his ember eyes. ''Trust me. This miracle would wake up even a mummy.'' He was beautiful. His hair was dyed pink, but he was otherwise dressed in all black. Danger radiated from him, but still... those gentle eyes looked almost friendly. Maybe even vulnerable.
