Summary
Percy Jackson never expects his soulmate mark to lead to anything good. When it reveals a truth he isn't ready to face, fear takes over and Percy does the only thing he knows how to do: he pulls away.
What starts as distance turns into silence, leaving Nico di Angelo hurt and confused, and everyone else certain they understand why Percy won't explain what changed. But when the truth comes out in the worst possible way, it becomes clear that Percy wasn't trying to escape love, he was trying to survive.
With nowhere left to hide and no strength left to pretend everything is fine, Percy is finally forced to let himself be seen, protected, and cared for in the aftermath of everything he was never meant to endure alone
