"Not every villain wears a mask. Sometimes, he holds you at night."
Lyra wasn't supposed to meet Damien that day.
She was only there for an interview - young, hopeful, a little broken, but still untouched by the kind of darkness he carried behind his smile.
He offered her family stability.
He gave her mother love.
He gave Lyra everything... except freedom.
> "You don't even know what he's taken from you, do you?"
"And yet... you still look at him like he's your savior."
He was just her stepfather. On paper.
But paper can't capture the heat in his gaze, or the chill that runs down her spine when he whispers her name like a promise.
> "You think you hate me now," he said, "but wait until you see what hating me does to you."
Lyra tries to run from the truth, but she doesn't know it's already living inside her house.
Inside her skin.
Inside her.
Every time she resists, he pulls tighter.
Every time she pushes away, he's already two steps ahead.
And the most terrifying part?
She doesn't know if she wants him to stop.
> "He killed everything I loved.
But still... my hands remember the shape of him."
In this twisted tale of obsession, control, and dark desire - will Lyra uncover the truth in time, or has she already become the perfect doll in Damien's carefully constructed fairytale?

Dimitrio chuckled, the sound deep and resonant, reverberating through her like a bass note in a symphony of seduction. "And aren't you this devil's heaven?," he breathed against her skin, his mouth moving to her neck, his teeth scraping lightly against her flesh. She shivered, her body responding to him. "Monster," she swore at him again, the word a whisper that held no real heat. Her voice was a tremble, a soft protest that was lost in the sea of passion that surrounded them. He chuckled, his eyes gleaming with triumph. "Call me whatever you want, as long as you come screaming my name." His voice was a dark promise, the arrogance in his tone sending a fresh wave of heat through her. *************** Under moon's dark veil, Princess shivers, devil grins.

Psychological Horror and Slow-burn Dark Romance. 18+ --------------------------- It's been five years since that fateful Friday night. I remember it like it was yesterday. The night I was kidnapped.

Because what he did to me deserves to be known. --------------------------- THIS BOOK CONTAINS TRAUMATIC CONTENT!

I could feel the smooth surface at my back and the heat of his body so close it made my skin burn. My wrists were pinned, and I was trapped. Still, I whispered, "Why are you doing this...?" His voice was low, rough, dangerous. "You play beautifully," he said, his breath ghosting against my skin. "So graceful. So poised. So perfect." For a moment, I almost believed it was a compliment. But then he leaned closer. "But I see past that sweet little act," he whispered. "All the pretty smiles and perfect posture-it's a facade. You're just another spoiled princess playing pretend. But don't bother. You won't fool me." ----------------Abgeschlossene Geschichte
