Benjamin has always been alone.
The only salvation he knows is the one given by his own hands. So when Aaron offers him a glimpse of something else—something sweet, possessive, and all-consumingly bright—Benjamin does the one thing he isn’t supposed to do in the dark: he allows himself hope.Aaron doesn’t just want to possess him—he wants to love him.
It’s a thin, morally forbidden line to walk—and even as he knows this, Aaron wants to take Benjamin's torment and set him free. But when Benjamin devotes himself to Aaron—placing his faith solely in him—Aaron realizes this love might be a bit more dangerous than he first thought.
Over the course of several years, they are torn apart and brought back together, forced to face life's harshest challenges.
What will become of them as their devotion blurs into obsession? And what happens when the god you pray to is the one that hurts you the most?
