Summary
With Carlton Drake’s specter gone, Eddie’s life is finally getting back on track. He’s landed a good job, his ex-fiance is speaking to him again and Chad across the hall has been blessedly quiet.
Sure, the man-eating alien sharing his organs wants to take their relationship to the next level and he could do without the police investigation into their latest meal, but Eddie's gotten pretty good at rolling with the punches.

“You misunderstand,” his symbiote says. “Even with perfect symbiosis, the odds of us defeating a superior at Riot’s level were nonexistent. Zero, Eddie. If you’d made us waste energy overriding you, we wouldn’t have, but you let us stay, you helped us learn. When we were weak, you let us heal. No other being would have done that for us. We don’t want to hurt you, not ever, but…” Those huge hands stroke up his sides and Eddie arches impossibly closer, “giving you what you want? What no human has, just by taking control?”
The symbiote’s face doesn’t change, but Eddie can feel it grinning, low in his gut. “We like that, Eddie. We like it a lot.”
