Victor was once a fencing champion and piano prodigy. Three years ago, in a chemical plant fire, he threw his body over a falling steel beam and the flames to shield Alex—an MIT tech student he loved. The cost: his spine, his hands, and a Chopin nocturne left unfinished.After the fire, Victor was framed for arson and sent to prison. Under Ethan's manipulation, Alex stood behind the visitation glass and said the words that shattered them both: "I never loved you." Then he vanished for three years.Now Victor tends bar at an underground club called The Abyss, with only months left to live—bone cancer, terminal. Alex returns, no longer the boy he was but a titan in Tom Ford suits. He buys the bar outright and stuffs Victor into the laundry room of his Manhattan penthouse. Every word between them is a blade, three years of unanswered questions bleeding into every glance.The truth collapses on a night in the Hamptons. Alex discovers the fire, the framing, the prison abuse—all of it orchestrated by Ethan and Chad. He drops to his knees before Victor. "Let me give you my bone marrow."The night before surgery, they share a hospital bed, holding each other in the dark. Under anesthesia, Victor dreams of flames and cold cells and the Steinway he will never play again. When he wakes, Alex has not left his side for three days.The final sunset falls on a glass house in Montauk. The tide pulls back. The piano stays silent. On white sheets, two hands intertwine—three years of ruin and wrecka
