Chris never really belonged anywhere. Born different. Raised in an orphanage that used his pain as profit. Bullied at school for the quietness he wore like armor. Then came Francis - the golden boy everyone wanted to be near. Rich, fearless, cruel in ways that didn't look like cruelty at first. When Francis discovered Chris's secret, everything changed. What began as curiosity turned into control... and what was once a life became something else entirely. Disappeared and Regret is a dark story about survival, loss, and the kind of love that doesn't save - it scars.
