Preface

Summary

He's gone.

Grief can easily twist one's thoughts into an unhealthy obsession. A pink hedgehog clings to every memory, every echo of the hero, hoping that if she waits long enough, something, someone will ease the emptiness. The blurring face is fading away-until she finds her spark in the most unexpected place. Shadow.

Her eyes don't see the one she lost; they see a ghost.

Shadow realizes too late-he's not just a replacement. He's a prisoner in a love that was never meant for him.

But he's not the one wearing the shackles.
