PROLOGUE
See you Again
PEN
We nearly didn’t geta chance to love again, the Breakers and I.
Circumstance, misunderstanding, distrust, and a past filled with the kind of pain that cut so deep, almost ruined everything. But in the end we found our way back to each other through the one thing each of our souls craved.
Dance.
Dance gave us a way to communicate when we couldn’t find the words to speak.
Dance allowed us to express our deepest emotions and lay them bare.
Dance revealed our true selves, the person we hid from the world.
Dance brought us together.
It tore us apart.
It healed the rift between us once and for all.
And dance has given us a life we’ve always longed for. A life where five kids' dreams to belong have become a reality.
Through dance we found friendship.
We found a lasting bond so deep that no one and nothing has been able to break it. We found a home in each other's arms, and outside of our tight-knit fivesome we found a group of incredibly loyal, and fiercely protective men and women who’d back us up, no questions asked.
We found our true family.
Has it been an easy road to get here? No, not at all.
But it’s a path I would travel all over again in this life, and the next, so long as I get to live it with the men I love. With Zayn, the boy who stepped onto that rundown playground when we were kids and saw a kindred spirit, unknowingly changing the course of our lives forever with his curiosity and kindness. With York, the boy who stood in the rain and held out the hand of friendship, waiting patiently for me to find the courage to entwine my fingers with his. With Xeno who fought so hard against his demons to keep loving me,us, despite all odds. With Dax who wrapped me up in his protection and kept me safe in his arms, sacrificing a piece of himself when he took a bullet for me years later.
God, that was the single worst experience of my life.
It haunts me still.
But he survived.Wesurvived.
It’s been five years since Dax was shot by my bastard brother. Five years since we opened Twisted Bullet, named after the slug that was pulled out of the mangled remains of his right forearm. Almost five years since we’veperformedtogether, like the old days.
It’s been too long.
Now that’s about to change, because irregardless of the pressures of everyday life, our souls will always be entwined through dance, the beats of our love will always remain a staccato rhythm across a scuffed and well worn studio floor.
We may have performed our finale on the stage of Stardom Academy in front of friends and family five years ago, but that was never going to be our last dance.
There was always going to be an encore…

DAX
“Motherfucker!”I shout, slamming my balled up fist against my desk, causing the double shot of bourbon to spill over the edge of my glass.
