Before I begin, I just want to say that this story does include some mature themes. I will also give out a warning a chapter prior to these scenes. Getting that out of the way, let's go onto the story description... *This book contains explicit content* *EXTRACT FROM THE BOOK* I stared at him, cooking and whistling, something that I could not do, or should I say, wasn't bothered to do. I decided to move away and to try and find an exit but I didn't even take one step back when I heard his voice. "Princess? Is that you?" I saw him raise his head before shooting his eyes onto me. The sudden gaze caused to heart to race while it froze my body as if I have turned into ice. I felt the fear engulf my body, eating me inside out. "You aren't scared of me... Are you?" he asked me, I sensed the envy in his voice. That mixed with his harsh tone caused a wave of goosebumps to course through my body. I wanted to begin by asking him where was I? Why was I here? Why was he here... I wanted to ask him, but I couldn't, the fear was just all too much for me. "Come on... Speak to me... Ask me..." he began. "Ask me 'why am I here' and all of that crap... Entertain me with your fear." I saw him slowly gripping a knife that was on the countertop, with his eyes still on mine. The sides of his mouth slowly began tilting upwards. All the bitterness and the cold, it was all so visible in his eyes. I looked at him in horror, noticing him as he took his first steps towards me. "Talk to me... Because this might be the only time you will ever be able to talk, " he said this sentence in such a calm tone, it caused me once again to shiver with goosebumps. "W-what do you mean...". Never in my life have I stuttered, until then.

"H-Huh?!" I screamed, clutching my towel tightly. "Y-Your the man I hit with my car earlier! How did you get in here?! I thought I locked all the doors and windows!" The same man from earlier, with jet black hair and glowing blue eyes, simply sat in my bathtub, completely naked might I add, and smirked at me with what one might describe as a confident and smug gaze. "You never told me what you wanted by the way." He snapped his fingers and a glass of wine suddenly appeared in his hand before I could even blink my eyes. "That's because I don't want anything! Now get out of my bathtub! No scratch that, get out of my house!" I could feel my cheeks burn as I backed away slightly. But before I could turn around and run out of my bathroom, he snapped his fingers and the door slammed closed. "Alright, if you aren't going to tell me what you want, then I shall tell you what I want." He stood up abruptly, and I could feel my eyes widen as I saw- [ Entire description in next chapter ;) ]

Seven friends. One unforgettable night. An amusement park after dark becomes the stage for something far more sinister than they could have imagined. For Dunya Taibi's birthday-and her last night in her childhood hometown-she and her friends decide to break into an abandoned amusement park to make memories they'll never forget. What begins as a lighthearted adventure quickly turns into a descent into the unknown when they stumble upon an eerie circus tent promising. Drawn in by curiosity, they step inside, unaware that they've just sealed their fate. As the night unfolds, each friend is confronted by the darkest corners of their mind, forced to make impossible choices and face haunting truths about themselves. The Midnight Circus is no ordinary attraction-it's a place where time twists, fears manifest, and escape may be nothing more than an illusion. For Dunya, Emma, Elena, Lydie, Rola, Colin, and Ben, the bonds of friendship will be tested, and the price of survival may be greater than they can bear. Because once you enter the circus, the only way out is to finish the show.

All you wanted was love and success. Was that so much to ask for? So much to yearn for? After many trials and tribulations, you're finally sick of all the bad things life throws at you. You're prepared to leave home until you meet someone who wants you to "pretend". ⚠️ An original work by me. No one is to copyright ⚠️ An X reader.

"I just want you to know how terrifying it is to have no control. Like, physically, no control over what happens to you. Nothing. Being at the mercy of someone else's hand." The look he gave me was glazed over with pain. "The thing is, you aren't the only one in my life who's put me in that situation. And I'm tired of being used to people doing that to me. I was finally beginning to think that, after my mother, there was someone else who could actually, truly, unconditionally, care about me." ​​"But don't you understand? I would've let you stay with your dad if I didn't." ​"If you did, you would've told me the truth." ​​"How can I convince you that there's no way I couldn't care about you?" ​"You'll have to work for that." I grumbled, slipping the gag into his mouth.

A man in a mask has kidnapped you. He doesn't speak, he doesn't show his face. What exactly does he want?

I didn't want to. I wouldn't. I won't. But suddenly I was doing it. I didn't even register my feet hitting the fourteen steps it took to get up the stairs. My brain ignored the ninth step and how creaky and loud it was. And then I was there. Finding a towel and a change of clothes. All because he had told me to.
