Now at the mercy of an Espada without a purpose, Orihime will have to learn to be brave while knowing that no one is coming to save her this time. Guest starring Grimmjow.

Silence shelters the loudest of all monsters. Emotions, burning to be spoken but they stay hidden, trembling in fear. Pain, hatred, regret, suffering, all wrapped up in a beautiful, blue cover. Where is the boundary between salvation and destruction, love and hate, right and wrong? But… Do those boundaries exist in the first place? - AU, OOC, yaoi, swearing.
