JACK - My life ended when I was 16. Not literally - I’m no ghost, I just feel like one. It's a byproduct of losing your pack to a plague that skips you by like you’re not worth the effort. Chose all the good ones and you’re what was left behind. Survivor’s guilt, people call it. I just call it like I see it. I do a decent job of going through the motions.

He saved my life, and he watches over me still. Because I belong to him.

I only hope dragging Chase down that fiery path just might reignite his spark and that I don't get burned in the process.

He vows to make San Diego his, no matter the consequences. He’s the man of your dreams and nightmares, all at once.
