When Methos-an immortal who has outlived gods, empires, and a thousand names-wakes to the sound of waves instead of engines, he realizes he's far from any world he's known. The sea is lawless, the sky is stranger, and the first man to greet him is sharp-eyed, sharp-tongued... and wearing a fuzzy hat.
Trafalgar Law is no stranger to the unusual. As the captain of the Heart Pirates and wielder of a Devil Fruit power that defies biology, he's dissected mysteries stranger than myth. But nothing prepares him for Methos: sarcastic, secretive, oddly well-read, and apparently impossible to kill.
Thrown together by chance-or fate-they navigate a world of pirates, Marines, and haunted histories, each carrying wounds that never healed and questions they've never dared ask.
What begins as reluctant cooperation becomes uneasy trust. And when trust deepens into intimacy, neither man is ready for what follows.
One cuts to understand.
The other hides to survive.
But love, perhaps, is what neither of them expected to grow.
