    Summary

    Sonja comes to Nevermore Academy carrying a body she doesn’t trust and a wish she made before she understood the price of wanting. At twenty-five, she is tired of becoming — tired enough to mistake stillness for safety.

    Marilyn Thornhill offers her attention, patience, and a devotion that borders on custody. Under her gaze, Sonja is cherished, tended, and slowly claimed.

    But Sonja does not want to be kept. She wants to look, to take, to feel something open under her hands — even if it costs her everything she’s being offered.

    This is a story about hunger, preservation, and the violence of being seen.

    What’s stolen must be returned. What’s nature must be accepted.
