    Summary

    She arrives shattered, unrecognizable in her reassembled state. Her unbirth isn't gracious, it's ugly, wet, and heaving for desperate breath. It's here she will learn what hunger means in a place that sells relief by the inch.

    Her appetite becomes a myth retold like wildfire. A movement she didn't design, a pedestal she has no desire to stand on. She only wants to exist without notice. She only wants some semblance of safety. An impossibility. Hell is not safe.

    The hotel is her mirror: An aberration, endlessly misinterpreted. It's also her revolving door: An exile she accepts as confirmation of worth, the possibility of attachment so foreign it feels more cruelty than kindness.

    Despite what she is— or perhaps because of it— this sinner still tries to keep her, his shadow a strange mercy that stitches her ragged edges together even as he picks at the threads.

    And Saga… well. She just wants to survive the day without ripping apart at the seams.
