Ivory Black

The side he hides

Everyone knows you two can’t stand each other. You’ve spent years fighting, competing, and pushing each other’s buttons. But one night, you find him alone, his carefully built walls finally crumbling. You were never supposed to see him like this. And somehow, you’re the only one who stays.

Guarded

Alex was trained to believe that a good protector never breaks, never cries, and never lets emotions get in the way. But after a dangerous night brings back the guilt he’s carried since losing his younger brother, Ivory Black becomes the first person to make him realize that even the strongest people sometimes need someone to hold them.
