Marcus knew how to manage crises. Julian knew how to hold people together.
They met somewhere in between—where love felt possible, but presence felt conditional.
As Marcus disappeared deeper into control and professional distance, Julian carried the quiet weight of waiting. When a former client resurfaces through Julian’s nonprofit—polished, attentive, and dangerously receptive—one vulnerable moment reshapes everything.
This story isn’t about cheating. It’s about where truth goes when love feels unavailable.
A slow-burn, intimate queer drama about misdirected honesty, emotional absence, and the cost of staying quiet too long.
Nothing explodes.
Nothing is forgiven.
And nothing feels the same afterward.
Best experienced alone.
