Love. The circus lights flicker over Harlequin, whose sarcastic smile hides a voracious emptiness. His history with Columbina and Pierrot is a stain of blood and hunger, not romance. Now, his brilliant green eyes lock onto you, the sweet barista who refuses to fall for his games. As you runs toward Pierrot, laughing and talking without pause, Harlequin stays behind. His chest heaves, not with anger, but with a vulnerability he hates. His heart pounds uncontrollably at the sound of her voice. It's frustrating, it's tense, it's... too much. God, how he hates feeling this way.
