Jack Coulter, a man torn between tenderness and rage, becomes captivated by the elusive Kate McCannon-an enigmatic beauty whose mystery only draws him deeper. What begins as a passionate courtship quickly spirals into something darker as Jack's possessiveness takes root, leading to a tragic act of violence.

In the aftermath, he is left alone with his demons, surrounded by the cold presence of his actions. The raven, a constant companion, watches from the shadows, echoing his guilt and marking the price of his sin.

This short story is a reflection on the dangerous line between love and control, and the suffocating weight of choices that cannot be undone. As the past relentlessly haunts him, Jack's journey through guilt and obsession is only just beginning.
