"You're nothing but a con man." "I prefer con artist, sweetheart." ➳ Winner of Season 3 1D Watty Awards for Best Smut

Jane's trouble started when she was four years old and it hasn't stopped since. The voices that were once faint are now loud and she can't ignore them and she's afraid of everyone, even herself sometimes. She doesn't eat as much as she should and she says things that don't make sense. But she's human just like everyone else and she's lonely despite how terrified she is of everyone. Will things change for her when an old friend starts visiting her again? Or will she scare him away just like everyone else?

There is no way that I can escape this now; no way that I can possibly escape her and all that lies behind the darkness in her eyes. I've gone too far. Inexplicably, I have become entranced by everything that she is, especially the red that we share. She is like the moon: haunting, beautiful, and so far out of reach. I have walked her through the gates of hell and, still, she has made no attempt to turn back. She likes to push my buttons, to put me on edge in an attempt to feel the red that resides within her. She is dangerous, but I cannot pull myself away from her gravity. *WARNING: Contains mature content, swearing, violence, death, and possible trigger warnings.
