In the city of Nocturne, where illusion and reality blur, renowned magician Lucien Vael takes the stage for his most daring trick yet-a Vanishing Act unlike any other. But when his volunteer, the noblewoman Lady Evangeline Duret, truly disappears without a trace, the act turns into a crime scene.

With the city's enforcers branding him a suspect and the high society of Nocturne whispering betrayal, Lucien is forced to trade the spotlight for the shadows. Alongside his sharp-witted assistant Celeste and his brilliant mechanist Felix, he must unravel a mystery far more dangerous than a mere illusion. Because in Nocturne, secrets are currency, and someone is willing to make Lucien vanish next.

Was it sabotage? A perfect setup? Or did Evangeline want to disappear?

The deeper Lucien digs, the more he realizes that this performance was never just a trick-it was a message. And if he doesn't solve it in time, he won't be making an escape.

After all, in Nocturne... nothing is ever as it seems.

Deception is an irresistible thing. It shows you how far you're willing to go to get what you want. It shows you what you want to see, but in the end; it leaves you with nothing to hold. An illusion to take pleasure in but make you question reality itself. BLAIR ANDERSON is quite a...strange girl. Despite the mistreatment and emotional neglect from her parents, she believes that deep inside everyone, there's always good. Because of her too trusting nature and her desire for love and affection she never received, it may lead to her ruination when she meets AMEO ADLER, who can be too...calm in frightening situations, for a lack of a better word. He's someone with an insatiable, dangerous appetite that he tries to hide from her. He would go lengths to prove to her how much she means to him, but to what extreme will he do that? Should there be a limit until it's becomes destructive? She will quickly realise that Ameo isn't what he deems himself to be; whether it's a good or a bad thing. She will soon learn that there's a frail, delicate line between protective and possessive; attraction and obsession; the admiration for someone and the desire to own one's being. She will later understand that not everyone who saves you is your guardian angel; and that sometimes, the devil does the saving instead. What happens when he enters her heart bit by bit? And after she falls into his love trap, perfectly made for her, will everything change? Just what could ever go wrong when a fiery rendezvous ignites between a gullible woman and an artful man? Nothing. Right? *Disclaimer! MATURE Content* Read this with caution, as it might be too much for some readers. If you can't handle it, it's best to stop for your sake because a lot of...things are going to happen in this story. <In Wattpad> Published: 12.02.2022 Finished: 12.05.2023 Ranks: #1 gaslighting #1 twisted #2 dark love #2 suspicion #3 deception #3 imprisonment #4 gamble #4 illusion #4 mania [Original Story]
