Nexus

They say Neo Crescent is a city of opportunity—but they never mention the hidden costs. By day, I'm just another face in the crowd, slipping through the bustling streets and vibrant chaos of the city. By night? Well, that's when things get interesting. Especially when I stumble into a web of power and lies spun by none other than Darian Cross, a guy who wears trouble like a perfectly tailored coat. When Darian crashes—quite literally—back into my life, I barely get a moment to wonder if he's worth the risk before I'm pulled headlong into a dangerous game of secrets, where everyone's holding something back and no one's playing fair. Now, with every step I take into the shadowy corners of Neo Crescent, I can feel myself being pulled deeper into a mystery that's bigger than both of us. Our alliance is shaky, built on tense banter, stolen glances, and just enough danger to keep my heart racing. But in a city that thrives on deception, and with a ruthless figure known as the Shadow Man watching our every move, trusting anyone feels like walking a tightrope with a storm brewing beneath. Still, I can't shake this nagging pull to uncover what Darian's hiding—or maybe, what I'm hiding from myself. And the closer we get to the truth, the clearer it becomes: the greatest danger may be what's waiting for us in the shadows.
