The Gaze That Holds Me

Kyle thought moving to a new country would be just another challenge to face, but nothing could prepare him for the storm brewing at his new high school. Quiet, reserved, and used to blending in, Kyle has always kept his distance from people. But everything changes when he meets Lucien, the school's elusive and impossibly handsome track star.

From the moment their eyes meet, something shifts. Lucien's gaze is intense, almost too intense, like he's searching for something Kyle doesn't understand. The attraction is undeniable, but Kyle can't shake the feeling that Lucien is hiding something - something dangerous.

As their paths cross again and again, Kyle is drawn into a magnetic connection he can't resist. But the more he notices Lucien's strange behavior - the way he watches him, the way he seems to know more about Kyle than he should - the more Kyle starts to suspect there's something far darker behind Lucien's perfect exterior.

Is Lucien really just a mysterious jock, or is there something far more complicated - and dangerous - lurking beneath the surface? As secrets begin to unravel, Kyle must decide how much he's willing to risk for a love he doesn't fully understand, and a person who might not be entirely human.

Underneath the Gaze is a slow-burn, supernatural romance filled with mystery, tension, and an undeniable connection that will keep you hooked from start to finish.
