   Summary

   The lighter won’t catch.
   Angel Dust sits alone in a rain-soaked alley behind the studio that broke him, watching the last cigarette he could afford drown in a puddle. After everything Valentino took from him—his heart, his freedom, his name—he’s left with nothing but shaky hands, broken memories, and a monogrammed lighter that keeps going out.

   And then a stranger appears. Silent. Watching. Offering something Angel doesn’t believe in anymore: care.

   He doesn’t know if it’s real.
   He doesn’t know if he wants it.

   He just wants to stop being the silhouette of who he used to be.
