He can't stand being touched... but the mountain man makes him feel safe.

Ace

My brothers call me a brat. Maybe I am. But they abandoned me when I was just a kid—left me to fend for myself.

And when they left, my entire life went to crap.

The walls I've built up around my heart and soul would impress nations. I can't let anyone close to me.

And after everything I've been through, I can't stand being touched either. It sends me spiraling. Makes me want to claw off my skin.

But when Gunner rescues me after I severely injure myself and nurses me back to health, I find out I can touch him.

And he can touch me.

But when I'm kidnapped, tied down, and violated, all of that progress I made with him may go down the drain.

Gunner

After serving overseas and coming home a broken shell of a man, I hole up in the mountains.

When people come around, I typically avoid them. Keep to myself because what they're doing—illegal or not—is not my business.

But then I find him. He's bleeding and hurt, and I can't bring myself to leave him there.

He's incredibly tactile with me, and when he calls me "Papa", my world feels right.

Until they take him from me.

I'll tear this entire world to pieces to get my boy back where he belongs.

They think they're winning the game...

But I'm the master.
