Author's Note

Hello! If you started reading the story after this chapter was published, please continue to the next chapter.

If you're reading this as the newest chapter, I want to share an update I made to the existing chapters prior to this one. I've changed the name of the main character from Sam to Dom. This is relevant to the plot, although I won't yet say how. If you want to review the update, reading the first chapter is sufficient. No other chapters are markedly changed. If you want the TLDR: Dom, short for Dominus, is named after his father. Dominus, as he preferred to be called, was known for being willful. A living force. Quite unlike his son.

That's all. Continue on!
