Prologue

Nico ran away when he was only thirteen. He doesn't regret it, except for the fact that he left his best friend, Will Solace, behind.

Nico has almost forgotten Will by now, and Will has pushed his feelings for Nico so far down he's sure he's over it.

But then they meet again, and everything they had convinced themselves crumbles.

Will realises he isn't over Nico. And Nico realises he has feelings for Will.

Will tries to help Nico by bringing him home. Unfortunately, Nico's father is angry, and a bit of a psychopath...
