Finn's Solace

Finn was doing a good job living in the present, until his past came tumbling back into his life along with Levi, the friend he'd thought he'd lost forever.

Promises always got broken. I'd believed that since I was a kid. My parents had broken a promise when they abandoned me and my siblings, foster homes had broken promises when they tried to separate us, and Levi had broken his when he failed to come to my rescue.
Fourteen years later, I discovered the truth that changed everything: Levi hadn't broken his promise, he was in Mistvale, and I could get to know him and his sweet familiar. People rarely got to fall in love with their first crush, and I had the chance, if I could just figure out how to let go of the past.

When I moved to Mistvale, the last person I expected to run into was Finn. Delighted to see him alive and eager to catch up, I was ecstatic when my familiar told me he was my mate. With a little bit of help from her and the residents of Mistvale, I was determined to win Finn's heart and make him mine.
Realizing we were both still dealing with the after-effects of our shared trauma wasn't really a surprise, but discovering we were stronger together was. Finn might be scared of his powers, but they couldn't harm me. I might've been afraid of settling down, but with him, it was easy to do.
