In a world where emotions are restricted for the soulless, two strangers uncover their forbidden capacity to feel. Despite having agreed to sell their souls decades ago, Harry and Louis now play with fire as they discover the dangerous depths of their newfound love. When Harry goes missing, Louis knows the keepers of their souls are after him next. With the help of his friends Liam and Niall, and Harry’s friend Zayn, he’ll have to journey through the dark, find Harry, and retrieve their souls before they’re severed from each other for eternity.
If they succeed they’ll be mortal again, but for Louis, spending just one lifetime with Harry is forever enough.
Harry’s features soften, the half light of the flickering neon sign nearby dappling his skin like star glitter. In the silence weaving around them, Louis swears there’s a heartbeat pulsing in his ears that’s not his own.
“You feel it too, don’t you.”
The low thrum of Harry’s words reminds Louis of the Northern Lights if the painted sky had a melody. He’s not used to the air this high or the dizzying mess in his chest of magnetic puzzle pieces singing to life from Harry’s voice. He has to brace a palm against the rough brick by Harry’s head, trying to scrape the fog of sensations he hasn’t felt in so long out of his skin.
It’s not working. Louis’s addicted to a drug he never realized still existed, intoxicated on an elixir that’s got him tasting harmonies.
“They’ll find us if we do this,” he whispers.
A steadying hand curves around his hip, draws Louis in until he can feel the tickle of curls against his forehead. Palms sweaty, he tries not to gulp down the fragile breath wisping across his lips from the warm mouth hovering just out of reach.
“I haven’t cared about anything in so long, Louis. I don’t know how to care about that now.”
