Into The Shadows

MM Romance aka 2 Boys Together |
They say the world is full of monsters. My mother swears it's true.

Every lock on the door, every barred window, every whispered warning has built my life into a fortress of fear. "They're watching," she says. "They'll come for you." But what if the real prison isn't the outside world? What if it's here, behind these walls, where my only company is paranoia and silence?

Then he appeared.

I shouldn't have stayed in that alley. Shouldn't have watched him laugh with his friend like the world wasn't out to get him. But something about the way he looked at me-sharp, wild, alive-made me forget about fear.

Damian. He's chaos wrapped in a grin, with tattoos like a map of trouble and eyes that seem to see straight through me. He calls me "Little Fawn," like I'm something fragile. And maybe I am. But with him, for the first time, I feel like maybe I could be something more.

He's offering me a glimpse of freedom, a world without chains. But freedom comes with a price, and the shadows that haunt his life might be darker than the ones I'm running from.

They say the world is full of monsters. I'm beginning to wonder if I'm one of them.

Trigger warning: This story will delve into heavy topics for the most part I will keep most of it off page but no promises.
