Cassandra "Cassie" Langford thrives on perfection-top grades, student body president, and the professor's favorite. Her biggest obstacle? Blake Foster. Carefree, infuriatingly charming, and just as smart without even trying. Forced to collaborate on a high-stakes project, their rivalry explodes. A heated debate turns disastrous, their work is ruined, and Cassie storms off. But Blake stays-finishing everything alone. Watching Blake succeed without her, Cassie feels something shift. Maybe Blake isn't just her biggest annoyance. Maybe she's something more. Enemies. Rivals. Dorm neighbors. And, against all odds... something more.

"Do you know what I do to girls who don't answer when they're spoken to?" she murmured, her voice dripping with quiet menace under the mask. "N-no," Salma breathed, her voice barely audible as she kept her eyes locked on Nerezza's dark eyes. Nerezza hummed, tilting Salma's chin up with a gloved hand, her grip firm but teasing. "I fuck the answers out of them," she whispered, each word slow and deliberate. ••••• Salma, a well known radio show host, is used to strange calls-but nothing like this. One Wednesday morning, an anonymous woman dials in live on air, her voice low, dripping with eerie amusement as she confesses to a murder. Convinced it's a twisted prank, Salma plays along, her tone teasing-until the caller whispers something only Salma could know. What starts as a disturbing coincidence spirals into a chilling obsession. Night after night, the woman calls back, turning Salma into her unwilling confidante, her chosen messenger. Each call comes with cryptic clues, taunts wrapped in silken words, a deadly puzzle Salma is forced to solve-because if she doesn't, she'll be the next victim. But fear gives way to fascination. Then obsession. As the game between them intensifies, Salma finds herself drawn to the voice on the other end of the line-a voice that knows her deepest fears, her darkest desires. The hunt for the truth becomes a tangled web of danger, passion, and something far more dangerous than death. They should be enemies. One is the hunter, the other the prey. But what happens when they fall in love? Written by: Tzipora Rosen Edited by: Lean Catherine Benton Disclaimer: Sexually explicit content Violence Strong language 🏆 #1 horror-thriller 🏆 #1 Toxic

I trailed off, tilting my head as I openly analyzed her face, "It was pathetic really."
