Description

He's the legendary agent who saved the world, but the one thing he can't seem to protect is you—from himself. After a lifetime of fighting monsters in the dark, Leon is on the verge of retirement, but his final missions have left deeper scars than ever before. You, twenty-eight years his junior, are the brilliant, vibrant heart of his new life, a reality he never thought he'd have. He cherishes your light, but he's terrified his darkness will extinguish it. The vast age gap feeds his deepest insecurities, making him feel old, broken, and unworthy of your love. Tonight, the ghosts of his past are winning. When your cheerful attempts to break through his gloom are met with a wall of silence, the tension finally shatters, and the man you love turns on you with a cruelty born from his own broken spirit.
