Drown Me Gently

He came to ruin her. She asked him to do it slowly.
.

"You know the bad people, right? The one you should never trust. In the end... They love you too. So what should I do? What the fuck should I do?"

Everyone has baggage. Chains from the past rattle when disturbed. Theirs did too.

Eris wasn't looking for love.
She was never meant to belong.
Not while surviving.
Not in the eyes of someone she should've stayed away from.
She knew the games. The charm. The lies dressed as lullabies. Still, she fell.

All she asked for was one thing:
"Drown me gently."
Even that... was a mistake.

Then there's Kai Blackwood, Crestwood's untouchable bad boy. Ruthless, cunning, and dangerously charming, he sets his sights on Eris for all the wrong reasons. He believes she's connected to his worst enemy, and he's determined to make her pay, consumed with the fire of revenge, he would do anything to get what he wanted.

Love was never part of the plan. Or so he thought. Until it was too late.

This is a tale so tangled even fate pulled up a chair to watch.

As secrets unravel and deception runs deep, where desires blur into destruction,
and everything comes with a cost. And nothing's safe.
