Summary
Soulmate marks were an alien invention, literally. But they stuck around and so you carried those words on your body, and you yearned, and you wished for that person to come along. Of course, he arrived only after you'd given up, and only after there was blood on your hands.
The thought of being marked with words from Foggy Nelson's killer sent spirals of shame and guilt to your core, but a fragile, thin line stretched between the two of you, and it wouldn't be broken.
Crying. Someone was crying.
You were crying, you realized slowly, each individual tear tracing a new path down your face. Knew it only when you saw his eyes tracking a single drop down your skin, along your cheek and then the line of your jaw, before sliding the length of your neck to settle in the hollow at the base of your throat. He took a step forward then, and another. You thought you could see him swallow, beneath the thick fabric of his mask, thought there might be a slight tremor in his free hand for just the briefest of moments before he tucked what he could not control away and out of sight.

Summary
Shane had nearly died.
He would have, if the farmer hadn’t found him on the edge of that cliff, staring into the sea below and wishing he was brave enough to take the final step.
She had saved him. She had pulled him back from the edge and dragged him all the way across the valley until she found help. Through the dark and the rain, all the way to Harvey’s door.
She saved his life in every way a person can.
It’s made him a little obsessed with her, not that he’d ever tell her that. Not when she refuses to have anything to do with him now. She wants nothing to do with him, and he wants everything to do with her.
A year later, when he’s finally given the chance to be close to her again, Shane scrambles to do everything in his power to not mess it all up. He can’t mess this up.
He can’t let all this wanting be for nothing.
