Soulbonds mean a slow, lingering death for those who carry them—and Guiro's soulbond is nearly at an end. But if he dies near other people, the soulbond will jump to them.
And so, at the end of a long, cobbled alleyway, Guiro lingers over his very last approach to the door of the place he used to call home. Just for a few more minutes, he needs to pretend he belongs.
A touching story about the power of found families, and why real love means never having to keep secrets.
