For five years, I was caged-locked in a life I couldn't escape, a nightmare I couldn't wake up from.
At an age when I should have been dancing under the stars, laughing with friends, living recklessly-I was caged. A life wasted on pain, drowned in tears. A hollow existence, a nightmare I couldn't wake up from.
But I ran.
And now I'm here. Safe. Loved. No longer just surviving-but living. Wrapped in the warmth of friendship, held in his arms. And for the first time in years, I feel whole.
But peace never lasts, does it?
Because soon, I will have to choose.
Between the man I love and the darkness I escaped. Between a future filled with love and a past that refuses to let me go.
What will I do when the nightmare comes knocking again?
What will I choose?

I have everything-money, success, power. Women want me, men envy me. I move through life with ease, collecting victories like trophies.
And yet, something is missing. Someone is missing.
Then she walks in.
She doesn't try to impress me. She doesn't need to. Just by existing, she undoes me. She is fire and shadows, warmth and distance. She steals my breath and doesn't even realize it.
But she is guarded, locked behind walls so high I wonder if anyone has ever climbed them. No matter how much I try, how patient I am, she keeps her past buried.
Until one night.
One unexpected night changes everything.
Because someone from her past walks back into her life. And in an instant, our present starts to unravel, our future hanging by a thread.
And suddenly, I understand.
This isn't just about her choosing me.
It's about whether I will stay when the truth finally comes out.
Will I?
