Nocturnal

Humans are far more terrifying than any supernatural creature, because they can wound, destroy, and still be allowed to roam the world as if they have done nothing at all.

Ever since childhood, Julian has witnessed his mother's death at the hands of his own father. From that moment on, he grows up as a boy haunted by guilt. Years pass, but the trauma of his past is never something he can simply forget. Stigma, nightmares, inner wounds, and the fear that he might inherit his father's cruelty continue to follow him wherever he goes.

Until he meets someone on campus, someone who teaches him things he has never truly known in his life: sincerity, safety, and real love. But their relationship is anything but easy.

The small town where Julian lives keeps repeating the same old patterns, dragging him back into a series of dark events that force him to keep questioning love, God, justice, his own existence, and why someone as fragile as him should keep living at all.

A story about childhood trauma, forbidden love, moral hypocrisy, and one young man's attempt to find meaning in a world that keeps testing him again and again.
