Rory has always been good at running.

A Dark Elf by blood and something older by birthright, he joins a bandit crew not for coin, but for distance -- from a past that refuses to loosen its grip. The work is violent, reckless, and temporary. Exactly what he needs.

Until the night they steal Bam Bam.

Beautiful and unnervingly calm, Bam Bam is found locked in a gilded cage, far too comfortable with captivity to make sense. He doesn't beg. He doesn't scream. He watches the world beyond the bars with wide eyes and a soft smile, as though freedom is the more dangerous option.

The others sense something wrong immediately.

Rory feels drawn in.

When he volunteers to guard Bam Bam, curiosity sharpens into fixation. Bam Bam is gentle and strangely innocent -- until he isn't. Flashes of violence and desire surface without warning, leaving Rory unsure whether he's witnessing a performance or something far more honest. As Rory's own body begins to change, the tension between them deepens, charged with need and an intimacy that feels both thrilling and wrong.

There is another presence in the cage.

It surfaces in fragments -- protective, possessive, and keenly aware of Rory. When it watches, the air grows heavy. When it speaks, Bam Bam falls silent.

As the bond between them tightens, Rory is forced to confront what Bam Bam truly is -- and what loving him might demand. Especially when the male responsible for Bam Bam's capture returns, backed by steel and blood, determined to reclaim what he believes is his.

Caught between desire and danger, freedom and restraint, Rory stands at the edge of a choice he may not survive.

Some cages are made of iron.

Others are made of promises.

And breaking them may cost Rory far more than his freedom.
