THE PREMISE
They know how to fight together. But can they choose each other?
For years, Rei and Haruki have trained, fought, and faced danger together as demon slayers. Their shared battles have forged a trust that reaches beyond friendship—even if neither has spoken openly about the feelings beneath it.
But the order they serve comes with responsibilities and rules. As their unspoken devotion becomes harder to ignore, the two must navigate the tension between their loyalty to one another and the commitments that have defined their lives.
Encircle is a Japanese-inspired MM fantasy novella blending action, magic, found family, and a slow-building romance about the courage it takes not simply to fall in love, but to stand by it.
