Discarded
About
"One hand on the wheel, one hand holding fire. Between her and this world, I was walking a razor's edge. And I knew; one life would kill the other."
Discarded plunges into the fractured world of Jake, a war-scarred veteran whose return home is anything but peaceful. Haunted by memories of battle, betrayal, and the ghosts of choices he cannot undo, Jake struggles to reclaim control over a life that seems determined to unravel at every turn. Every street, every shadow carries a memory, a threat, or a reminder of what he has lost; and what he might still lose.
When a shocking discovery drags him back into the orbit of Aslyn, a ghost from his past, old wounds resurface and unspoken desires ignite. She is the life he should have had.
Navigating the fragile threads of life, Jake is forced to balance his darkest instincts against the fragile humanity that still clings to him. One wrong move, one lapse in control, and everything could burn; the connection he has fought so hard to reclaim.
