Dark Obsession || Alhaitham x Reader

"Not even death can take you away from me."

(Book II of "Sweet Obsession")

You and Alhaitham enjoyed the simple things in life; nothing too extravagant, nothing too overbearing. The love you had for each other was something unspoken, but understood. It was peaceful, just how the both of you liked it.

Suddenly, just as you were getting used to your new life, people across Sumeru start to disappear without a trace. It falls into your hands once again to indulge on a mystery of finding the culprit. Alhaitham wants you to stay out of it- however, you go behind his back, not daring to let this mystery go unsolved when someone dear to you becomes victim to such heinous actions.

But what happens when your own actions causes you to be faced with a strained choice?

You can save all those innocent lives.

Or you can save Alhaitham.

But you can't do both.
