Bitter Tides

Hatred is a tide-pulling, relentless, impossible to escape.

When Sanemi Shinazugawa is sent to exterminate a demon terrorizing a festival town, he never expects to find Tomioka Giyuu, the former Water Hashira, drenched in blood and stripped of his humanity. Once a pillar of strength, now nothing more than a predator lurking in the shadows.

Their blades clash under the moonlight, a battle neither is willing to lose. But in the heat of the fight, a single misstep, a slash too deep, and it makes something ... change?

What began as a desperate struggle for survival spirals into a battle of wills. With each encounter, the animosity between them only deepens, pulling them back to each other again and again. Neither can escape the other's presence, and the fight is far from over.

The bitter tide of their hatred has only begun to ebb-and with every clash, they get closer to something darker, more dangerous, and more undeniable than either of them could have anticipated. Neither side is willing to give in, but the pull between them is becoming impossible to ignore.

And with each passing moment, the storm between them grows-until one of them breaks.
