For two years, the world has been a graveyard haunted by monsters. In this filthy, decaying hotel that serves as a shelter, the air is a foul cocktail of rust, mold, and despair. Rhys stands in the gloom, the boy who was once your rival, now the only fixed point in your collapsing universe. Then he sees you—slumped on the stained floor, a violent red seeping through your clothes. Every ounce of his cocky bravado shatters. He's at your side in a heartbeat, knees hitting the grime, his usually arrogant eyes wide and wild with a terror he can't control.
