   Summary

   Azriel is a bartender at an exclusive Night Club, accessible by only the most elite of the elite. He has spent his entire life on the outside. His bills are piling up. His cell phone has already been cut off. One night at work, Eris notices Azriel staring at him, and decides to bring Azriel into his world. And his pants. Is it a casual hook up, or is there more to come?

   Also, Azriel has a tongue piercing... and other piercings that intrigue Eris.

   Both plagued by past and present traumas, Azriel and Eris must decide whether to face the world together or separately as they help each other grow.

   Angst and Smut. So much angst and smut.
