The Anatomy of Him

A jeff the killer fan-fiction. By her third year of medical school, Kyomi has sacrificed everything to her work-sleep, relationships, even the idea of wanting anything for herself. She's a machine in a white coat, running on coffee and overdrive, chasing perfection because slowing down feels like failing.

Christmas break is supposed to be her escape.
Two weeks alone in her home.
Two weeks to remember what breathing feels like.

Then he appears.

A stranger standing in the tree line behind her house-too still, too pale, too eager.
A name she's heard in nightmares and online whispers.
A killer who shouldn't exist... but is suddenly watching her like she's the only person left in the world.

Kyomi should shut the door.
She should run.
But instead, she opens it wider.

There's something in his smile that unravels her.
Something in the way he looks at her-like he wants to ruin her, worship her, consume her-that makes her pulse stutter in ways she hasn't felt in years.

Their connection is instant.
Wrong.
Inevitable.

He slips into her life like a shadow:
too close, too curious, too possessive.
And she hates that her body reacts before her mind does-heat blooming where fear should live, desire twisting itself into something darker as she lets him in again... and again.

The line between danger and craving blurs fast.
The snow outside gets colder.
The nights inside get hotter.
And Kyomi starts to crave the way he obsesses over her-how intensely, how completely-like she's the only thing he won't kill.

But when bodies begin to surface in the snow, the truth becomes impossible to ignore:
She isn't just tangled up with a monster.

She might be falling in love with one.
