Prologue

The first time Rhea stumbled upon Juno’s words, she had been searching for an escape. It wasn’t the kind she found, but something far more potent—intoxicating in its darkness. Juno’s mind was a maze of strange, twisted pathways, ones Rhea never thought she’d explore. But with every word Juno shared, Rhea felt herself stepping a little further in, feeling the thrill of something dangerous, forbidden.

Over time, her fascination became a quiet, consuming fire. She told herself she was safe as long as Juno was on the other side of the screen, someone distant and separate from her everyday life. But the strange desires Juno planted in her thoughts took root, growing wild and unmanageable in her mind. And as their connection shifted, Rhea began to wonder if she was still herself, or if she’d become someone unrecognizable.

Introduction

When Rhea met Juno online, she didn’t expect her life to change. She was used to being the quiet one, living a careful, predictable life. But that night, scrolling through late-night conversations, she found Juno—bold, unfiltered, and speaking of desires most people would never dare to voice. Rhea felt a pull she couldn’t explain, a magnetic draw that seemed to make her heart beat a little faster, her pulse race in a way that was both thrilling and unsettling.

What began as curiosity soon became a fixation, a desire to understand this strange girl who seemed so comfortable with things that felt shameful to Rhea. Every message from Juno chipped away at Rhea’s carefully built walls, drawing her into a world that blurred the lines between fascination and fear. She thought Juno was there to guide her through those unfamiliar feelings, to give her a safe place to explore them.

But then, without warning, Juno vanished. And when she came back, she was different—colder, more distant, no longer interested in the questions she had once stirred so deeply in Rhea. Left with nowhere to turn, Rhea wrestled with a confusing mix of resentment and longing, feeling trapped by the desires she’d been left alone to carry.

This is the story of two girls—one who embraced her darker desires and left, and the other who was left behind, struggling to untangle herself from their grip.
