Sparra Kirahara just wants to finish school, but the dreams won’t let him. Night after night, he sees fire, war, and a man he’s never met but can’t stop yearning for. It isn’t stress. It’s something ancient, something bleeding through the seams of time.
When Sparra lands an internship with the enigmatic manga artist Isshin Kataoka, he’s struck by how familiar Isshin feels. It’s as if they’ve already met and already lost each other. Their connection is immediate, electric, and impossible to ignore.
Sparra remembers touches that never happened, words never spoken, and a love that ended in blood and ash. As the past begins to unravel around them, it becomes clear this isn’t their first time together. And it’s never ended well.
But Sparra isn’t ready to let go again. If they’re caught in a cycle that always leads to heartbreak, he’ll have to find a way to break it—or risk losing Isshin all over again.
