"No wonder I'm going to protect her from the whole fucking world, but who's going to protect her from me?" ✧✧✧✧✧ > Everyone wants to read the real thing. I couldn't post it... so I created something darker. Something mine. ---- They said the mansion was old. Haunted. Forgotten. I thought I was escaping. I didn't know I was walking straight into his trap. Someone is watching me. I hear whispers when I'm alone. Roses show up where they shouldn't. The air is heavy with secrets... and eyes I can't see. He's always one step ahead. One room closer. One breath behind me. I came here to be alone. But he made sure I would never be alone again. This isn't the story you expected. It's worse. ---- 🩸 Mini Scene Teaser : > "I saw you before you were real." He said it like a curse. Like a vow. "So imagine how far I'd go to keep you now. And now that you're mine... I'm never letting you leave." ---- > "You didn't find this mansion, Adeline." "I built every wall around it... for you." ---- > "Leave if you want. I'll still follow your footsteps like I always have." "You haunt me, Sweetheart. And now it's your turn to be haunted." ---- 𝐀𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐒 🕷️🖤 Haunted halls. Obsessive stares. Shadows that never leave. Whispers through the walls. A camera that's always watching. A girl who doesn't know she's already his. Dreams that aren't just dreams. ---- Rankings: #1 in rewritten ---- 🔪 This is a rewritten version inspired by Haunting Adeline by H.D. Carlton. The plot, characters, and scenes are entirely my own. 🖤 If you've been looking for the original, this one's different - darker, twisted, and personal. 📌 Story by: @Aurorawhisperss 💌 Follow for updates, and don't forget to vote if you're obsessed already! 💋
