Boredom. A slow, suffocating poison. For Ken Swinburne, a 27-year-old salaryman, it's not just a passing phase-it's his entire existence. Every day is a monotonous loop of mind-numbing work, silent resentment, and drowning his misery in cheap alcohol. He had no way to escape this hell, and he's already given up on trying.
Until he remembers the dead body in his bathroom.
Routine is shattered. A secret festers behind his locked door. As the days stretch on, paranoia tightens its grip-who was watching? Who knew? More importantly... how much longer until his past catches up with him?
Ken thought he was already dead inside. But now, something is hunting him in the darkness, and this time, there's no escape.
⚠️ A mind-bending mystery thriller filled with suspense, dark humor, and unexpected twists.

[ON HOLD] An age gap dark romance. She wasn't afraid of his darkness; she craved it - and he let her crawl inside, knowing she'd never find the way out. • ✧ • Her obsession started innocently enough. A glance, a spark - nothing more than an attraction at first. But as days turned into weeks, and weeks into months, she couldn't escape him. He was everywhere. In her thoughts. In her dreams. And she couldn't stop herself from wanting more. He didn't make it easy, though. Cold, distant, and guarded - he kept her at arm's length. Yet, the pull between them grew stronger. Every glance, every subtle touch, sent a shock of electricity through her. And though he fought against it, something in him, too, started to stir - a feeling he wasn't willing to acknowledge. But there was a secret. One she couldn't yet uncover. He was hiding something. Something dark. And somewhere in the world, as she lost herself in him, someone was killing people, one by one - a faceless killer, leaving no trace behind. The name? No one knows, but they call 'The Phantom.' As the mystery deepened, she couldn't help but wonder... Was she falling for a man who could destroy her, or was she already lost in his web, unaware of the danger lurking just beyond the surface?
