Cyril Roosevelt doesn't belong at L'Académie Sainte-Marie-a prestigious Parisian university for the rich and powerful. He's poor. Shy. Soft. The scholarship student that nobody takes seriously.

But someone is watching him.

He starts getting gifts. Blood red roses with no sender. Handwritten letters calling him his little mouse. Messages from an unknown number that seem to know exactly where he is. Exactly what he's wearing. Exactly how fast his heart is beating.

And then there's Deimos King.
The mafia prince everyone fears.
The monster Cyril can't outrun.

But what scares Cyril most isn't Deimos's reputation.
It's the way Deimos looks at him. Like he owns him.
Like he's been waiting for him.

The walls close in when Cyril receives an invitation to a secluded mansion. Masked faces, and a Halloween party that feels more like a trap.

𝐎𝐛𝐬𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 has a name.
And it's coming for him.
