He’s broken–a sad little pup that needs a new owner. And I’m the man for the job.

RICO

I dont care about much. I run my business with an iron fist, and my circle is small.

But when I see himbruised, bloody, face streaked with tearsI just about lose my mind.

Ill slaughter anyone who has touched him. And Ill do the same to those who try to ever take him from me in the future.

Anurak is mine.

I may be the devil in disguise, but Ill bring my little pup heaven.

Only question is will he trust me enough to let me?

ANURAK

I dont remember what freedom tastes like. I havent seen anything outside of these walls in years.

Freedom feels foreign now. So much so that Ive stopped longing for it.

But then Rico comes roaring into my life, guns blazing.

Hes determined to save me. To protect me.

And every time he calls me perrito, I fall for him a little bit more.

I dont know how to live on my own. I dont know who I am or what I want out of life.

But Im certain I do want him.

Can Rico see past all my flaws and all my trauma to want me, too? Or am I just a boy he felt sorry for and wanted to save?
