Everyone has their own guilty pleasure, or things that they find enjoyment from that may be strange to others. Some like feeding groundhogs, while others might enjoy watching so-bad-it's-good movies on Hallmark. But Damian Owens' enjoyment goes beyond strange, and crosses into illegal territory. Unbeknownst to everyone around him, Damian is an undiagnosed psychopath, which makes his hobby much easier. 

Having a father with a strange- and somewhat heartless and twisted- job, Damian grew up to be a serial killer, but with a twist. After brutally injuring and killing someone, Damian loves to take out his canvas and paint- using his victim's blood. But balancing a normal life and a serial killer life isn't easy, especially for Damian, who has a best friend- and crush- who has a very normal life, and insists on coming to Damian's house for a visit.

As Damian continues to kill and love, he figured out the location of the victim he'd dreamed of since he'd first started killing. The one who got away.

Emmy's life is going just as she'd planned: She's living in her own apartment, dancing every day and is just leaps away from being named her company's next Prima ballerina. And she's only 17. But all of Emmy's plans come to a screeching halt when the FBI shows up at her door to let her know that she's being stalked by a serial killer. Suddenly, the safe, insulated world she created for herself is riddled with violence, fear...and a growing pile of dead bodies. At first Emmy wants nothing more than to forget her chilling new reality - but her admirer isn't finished with her yet, and before she knows it, Emmy's stuck in a nightmare she can't dance her way out of. Content and/or trigger warning: This story contains detailed scenes of murder, rape, torture, sex and stalking, which may be triggering for some readers. [[word count: 80,000-90,000 words]]
