He's watching me. Hunting me. Just not in the way I want him to. Not in the way I crave. I'm terrified he sees me for what I really am. Terrified that he sees more than he should. I fear he sees through the lies. Through the mask. Through the woman I pretend to be. I hate the way my body aches for him, the way it knows when he's near. I hate that I crave him. Why do I want the man who could ruin me? Started: February 17, 2026 Finished: May 8, 2026
