Summary
In the shadow of a village built on impossible dreams, two men find themselves bound by an arrangement neither sought. Tobirama, the accomplished alpha who carries his failures like stones in his chest, has exhausted every medical intervention, every desperate attempt to fix what his father's cruelty carved from him. Madara, the omega who makes alphas kneel, refuses to bend to a society that would see him broken before it sees him equal.
When Hashirama's well-meaning machinations bring them together, what begins as mutual convenience becomes something far more dangerous. In the space between expectation and reality, between the roles they cannot play and the people they truly are, an understanding takes root.
But some hungers run deeper than flesh, and the greatest intimacy may lie not in what bodies can do, but in the brutal honesty of being seen, truly seen, by someone who knows what it means to disappoint the world simply by existing.
Sometimes the only way forward is to stop pretending to be whole.
