Crash Wake

The Greek gods Slumber In Wake Of Trouble

At fourteen, Alec is biding his time in the cold, confining walls of an orphanage, counting down the days until his fifteenth birthday, his self-imposed deadline to escape. The orphanage is no home—it’s a place of harsh rules and harsh people, a prison he longs to leave behind. But as his plan to escape takes shape, Alec finds himself haunted by visions of three mysterious men, each more strange and powerful. In one vision, Alec sees a fierce, commanding figure—an older man with a wild white beard and eyes slit with flashes of lightning. This man perches on clouds, his gaze like thunder, his presence a storm waiting to strike. In another vision, Alec is drawn to a man with the calm of the ocean in his eyes, the kind of calm that can turn deadly with a moment’s notice. His serene smile hides the force of a tempest, and he appears on tranquil beaches or luxurious yachts, exuding both peace and power. The third man is a contradiction, always laughing and swaying as though drunk, his gaze dancing with fire and eyes pitch black. Yet beneath his boisterous demeanor, a darkness clings to him, thick and suffocating, like a shadow he cannot shake. Each of these men has one request for Alec: they want him to be their vessel. They come to him one by one, pleading, promising, but Alec refuses, unsettled by their otherworldly presence and the ominous weight of their demands. Who are they, these figures who appear from the sky, the sea, and the shadowy depths? And why do they want him—a lone boy desperate for freedom—as their vessel? As his birthday approaches, Alec faces a choice that could reshape his entire future. But freedom has its costs, and so does the mystery that pulls at him from the depths of his own visions.
