Charlie never expected a simple walk in the woods to change everything.
Bored and looking for adventure, they stumble upon a hidden treehouse-lived-in, mysterious, and oddly inviting. But when its owner, a bright and curious girl named Selam Reyes, shows up at their doorstep the next day, Charlie is pulled into something far bigger than a childhood hideout.
What starts as innocent fun-dinners with the warm and welcoming Reyes family, late-night talks, and trips to the market-soon takes a chilling turn. A local circus has rolled into town, bringing with it more than just dazzling performances. Whispers of eerie coincidences, long-buried secrets, and a lurking presence tie the circus, the Reyes family, and a shadowy cult together.
And somehow, Charlie is now part of it all.
What have they walked into? And more importantly-can they walk back out?

Obsession.
If you like fantasy/romance you should try my story The Flower Longed Death. It is written a LOT better than this one is! -------------------------- "You must've got the wrong impression if you keep expecting to get away with shit like this, so let me make things clear," He says with a calm smile. He moves his face closer to mine, losing the lighthearted grin that had previously cooled my nerves. I get a better look at the scar across the bridge of his nose, and the vague one X'ed onto his lips. Now I want them even more. -------------------------- Eighteen year old Mileva never thought her past would catch up to her after leaving years ago to live in New York City. She didn't think she wanted it to. However, she also didn't think she would cross paths with a guy like Valen, the Italian Mafia's heir. He's only twenty three, but he's somehow the most attractive and intimidating man she has ever met, let alone heard of. Mileva battles her anxiety adjusting to this new life of hers, while Valen is just getting comfortable with his new obsession. -------------------------- Word count: 110,000 There is a lot of graphic content, so please read carefully! List of specific warnings can be found in the introduction. The writing gets better as the story progresses, I promise.Complete
