Strangled

⸻

"If there is one purpose in life, then it must be the power to push through all the hardships and still end up loving someone unconditionally."

Natalie will never forget those words-words her mother always wanted her to remember. But now, her mother is gone. So are her father and the little angel she once couldn't imagine living without. All of them are gone now.

Natalie is all alone.
Or is she?

Nicholas follows her everywhere. Who is this man with his mighty, imposing presence?
He is captivated by her pure presence.
What he doesn't know is that Natalie struggles even to set foot outside-she constantly feels suffocated.

One deal made in the dead of night turns both of their lives upside down.
But by then, it's already too late.
Both feel strangled by each other.
