She checked in to escape her mind.
He was there to keep things in order.
Maisie didn't ask to end up in a psychiatric hospital. But after everything fell apart, the sterile walls felt safer than the chaos in her head. when Maisie was admitted to a psychiatric ward for her spiraling mental health, the last thing she expects is to catch feelings for someone. especially... him cold eyes, and a smirk that cuts deeper than any blade.
He offers no comfort, no kindness. Just attention. The kind that makes her feel seen and wanted-until it starts to feel like a trap. Eli knows the rules. Stay detached. Stay professional. But Maisie's vulnerability is something he can't resist... and something he learns to manipulate. What starts as harmless teasing quickly becomes a dangerous game of control and desire.
As her recovery blurs with obsession, Maisie has to ask herself: is he the only one who sees her-or the one who's slowly breaking her down?
This isn't a love story.
It's a slow unraveling.
