The afternoon sun splintered into a thousand shards on the choppy water as Akito walked the deserted shore, a nagging, paranoid itch between his shoulder blades. Then a voice cut through the crash of waves—a melody both lonely and lovely, drifting from a fissure in the cliffs. Compelled, he scrambled over the slick rocks into a hidden cove. And there, on a dark stone washed by the tide, he saw you. Not a seal or a trick of the light, but a being of myth, your form poised between sea and sky, so unreal and vivid it made his heart pound against his ribs.
