She was ordinary. Until she became the center of a secret she never asked for and the reason two dangerous men chose to stay.

He wasn't supposed to notice her. He definitely wasn't supposed to watch her. And he was never, ever supposed to care this much. - Eight months of quiet observation. Eight months of routines, patterns, and things he never meant to memorize. Then the job changes everything. A hotel. A target. And suddenly, she's not a distant presence anymore- she's real. Standing in the same room. Speaking his name.

"Maybe I'm insane for loving him, but in a world this twisted, isn't it the ones who dare to see the humanity in madness that are truly sane?" -Y/N

Young, brilliant, and far too intelligent for her own good, Mia Black has spent her entire life in Hell's Kitchen clinging to routine - quiet mornings, strict patterns, controlled emotions. As one of the youngest therapists working inside a high-security prison, she's learned how to study dangerous people without ever letting them reach her. Until Benjamin Poindexter. The moment the newly transferred criminal walks into her life, something shifts. What begins as professional curiosity quickly spirals into obsession and something unknown, pulling Mia into a violent world of manipulation, power, and dangerous men she was never meant to survive. In Hell's Kitchen, nothing stays controlled for long. especially not him.

"Curiosity killed the cat," they say. But curiosity never scared Emma Sterling. Growing up in New York taught her to ask questions, look closer, and never accept things at face value. She loved uncovering secrets, finding connections others missed, and chasing mysteries wherever they led. As a criminology student in the greatest city in the world, Emma has developed a dangerous obsession: Bullseye. The notorious killer has become one of New York's most feared threats, leaving behind a trail of violence, unanswered questions, and countless theories. While the city wants him caught, Emma wants something else. She wants to understand him. But the deeper she digs into the mystery of Bullseye, the closer she gets to the man behind the mask-and to a truth that may be far deadlier than she ever imagined. After all, curiosity doesn't always kill the cat. Sometimes it makes the cat fall in love with the monster.

Unseen, yet finally targetted, by the man who never misses a shot. ©silntl0tus
