The Ballad of Gabrielle & Delilah
In Aethel City, the only thing more dangerous than love is perfection. Gabrielle is a low-level operative with high ambition. A man built on straight lines and steel-cold logic, he's clawing his way up the ladder of the city's most ruthless organized crime syndicate, led by the unseen power, Silas Vane. His past is rough, his future is calculated, and his soul is empty-until the night the city goes dark.
During the Great Silence, Gabrielle is drawn to the ruins of the North Docks and finds Delilah: a brilliant engineering student who suddenly manifests as a blinding, shimmering beacon of light. She is chaos made visible, a beautiful, terrifying force of pure energy-the exact opposite of everything Gabrielle has ever built. Their instant, volatile connection is not a romance; it's a mutual addiction.
Gabrielle sees in Delilah the "pure concept" he always craved, and Delilah finds in Gabrielle the stability she needs to anchor her escalating, uncontrollable power. But their obsession is a trap. Silas Vane, and his rival organizations, are hunting Delilah's unique energy-and the mysterious Prism Device she unknowingly possesses. As Gabrielle's wisdom-dispensing friend, Marv, issues warnings from the bar, and Delilah's fiercely protective friend, Anya, raises her gun, Gabrielle must choose between his structured, powerful path and the dazzling ruin of his devotion.
Volume 1 culminates in a final, irreversible choice atop Gabrielle's most impossible structure, holding the device that will either fuse him with the woman he loves or cause her to vanish forever. Welcome to Aethel City. The light is irreversible. And the void is waiting.
