RitaNoir
To the rest of the world, she is merely a woman living her life-walking to the bus, sipping coffee, existing in the sunlight. But to him, she is a sprawling, complex universe mapped out in thousands of crimson filaments. From the darkened sanctuary of his apartment, he does not just watch; he calculates. He knows the exact rhythm of her breath, the precise tilt of her head when she is troubled, and the inevitable path she must walk to reach him. He is the invisible architect of her days, and she is the centerpiece of his masterpiece. As the red threads tighten, blurring the fragile line between protection and possession, he prepares for the moment the final strand is pulled-the moment she realizes she has never truly been free.
