He knocked on her door covered in blood. She let him in.

He said his name was Dusty. That was the first lie.

Dani didn’t ask questions, and maybe she should have—but between the bruised knuckles and the way he looked at her through the pain, like she was the only thing anchoring him to this world, she couldn’t make herself turn away.

There was a charge in the air, a longing she hadn’t felt in years. The kind that builds slow and burns deep.

He told himself it was just survival. One night to recover, but the way she touched him—soft and unafraid, made forgetting the lie feel easier than remembering the truth.

He needed a place to hide… She needed something to feel.

Now the past is catching up, guns are drawn, and the truth cuts deeper than any lie.

She was just supposed to be a stop on his way out.

Instead, she might be his last chance to survive.
