    Summary

    Everything was finally starting to feel right for Ace.

    Finally, he had a family, people who cared for him, and someone who made him believe he might deserve to be loved. He let himself trust it. He let himself hope.

    That was his first mistake.

    One accusation is all it takes. A misunderstanding spirals into something unforgivable, and in an instant, Ace is no longer family, he’s a traitor. Framed as a murderer. Condemned without hesitation, he’s forced to run from the very people who once swore he’d never be alone again.

    Because the cruelest part isn’t the sentence hanging over him...
    it’s how easily they all believed it.

    Ace is alone once more… or so he thinks.

    Realizing their mistake, the Whitebeard Pirates sets out to find him, to fix what they’ve done. But how do you find someone who is terrified of you, barely fighting to survive, and determined to disappear?

    Especially when Ace isn’t just running anymore...
    he’s protecting something far more important than his own life.
