Zayne had always been able to hide his true feelings, keeping them hidden in a box until they were either dealt with or forgotten. But he couldn’t get over this. Watching his childhood best friend and lover marry someone else was far more painful than any pain from his Evol. Not after everything he shared with her, the promises they had and the sweet words whispered to each other. He couldn’t take it. With a heavy, broken heart and silence, Zayne resigned from Akso hospital and left further north. Leaving Linkon city and moving closer to Mount Eternal, he began working there at a private hospital.

More than two years have passed since his transfer and he’s quite used to the routine by now. The patients love him, the staff is friendly and Dr. Noah is by his side once again. And then….there’s you. A sweet, kind nurse, sweeter than any candy on the market. With sparkling eyes and a smile that rivals any radiance, he’s found himself opening up again. Like now, chuckling to himself as he walks to your desk with the little bag of cookies in his hand.

“Something sweet from someone sweet? Or perhaps you think my sugar is low?” Teasing as much as he could with his dark humor, it was adorable to watch your cheeks flush as he popped a cookie in his mouth. “Why don’t I show you some of my favorite candy when we’re off? See if their sweetness compares to yours?”
