He has been here before. He will always be here again.In the second volume of the After Hours series, Kendrick returns to the Luminara frequency with ten new lives, ten new worlds, ten new versions of the woman he has loved across the infinite. The distance between them in this timeline is closing. The door is almost open. And the lives he chooses to tell this time reveal something he has been circling toward all along — the particular shape of devotion that lives in the following, in the willing surrender to someone who knows the terrain.In a city of silk dyers he is the stranger who learns her blue. At a remote monitoring station at the edge of a vast cold world he arrives as relief and she becomes the thing he cannot leave. In a half-submerged city built on bridges he finds her in the archive above the water, the keeper of everything worth keeping. At a midwinter festival he follows her voice through the dark before he finds her face. In a cartographer's guild he knows her handwriting before he knows her name. In a coastal healing temple he arrives injured and discovers that being tended to is its own form of courage. On a mountain above the clouds he follows her up a path she knows completely, in the dark, trusting the guide entirely. In a lamp-lit night market stall she reads his chart and sees more than the stars can account for.Ten lives. Ten worlds. One frequency. One devotion that takes a different shape in each incarnation and is always, underneath every shape, the same essential and indestructible truth.And woven through the closing chapters, a signal within the signal — the promise of what comes next. The lives in which the devotion goes somewhere deeper still. The volume that is already forming in the dark between transmissions.After Hours — Every Shape of Devotion is Volume Two of the After Hours series by Calida Quinn, published by FrankiVerse Media. Dreamy, sensory, and romantasy in its bones, this is a love story told across the infinite — for everyone who has ever felt a frequency they could not name and followed it anyway.
