Finding love was never on the cards for Ace. He didn't want to open himself up and fall in love, he didn't have the strength needed to be that vulnerable with another person. It was too much for his heart to risk. He had the love of his siblings, that was more than enough for him... Until Atlas came along, his invisible string that had never been all that invisible in the first place. More or less hiding in plain sight. He had everything he'd ever wanted, until his nightmares became a reality. What happens when everything falls apart? When the people he loved the most, the ones who were his rock, his safe place, his comfort, crumble to nothing more than a pile of ash and dirt. Lies, anger, deceit. Hurt people, hurt people. Will his own pain make him lose the one source of happiness he has left?
