Liminal (MxM, LGBTQA+)

Wren Miller has always been the goofy, weird, queer guy- the one who's laughter fills rooms, trips over air, and cusses like a sailor. Even in college, he's still that person. Still bright. Still strange. Still himself.
He never expected that would be enough to catch the eye of Rhodes Sloan- campus golden boy, Mr. Perfect, the guy everyone seems to flock to. A guy with such unique beauty should be catalogued and displayed in the Louvre. And Rhodes shouldn't have noticed him. He shouldn't have cared. And he definitely shouldn't have fallen for every one of Wren's quirks.
But he did- a monster incapable of true human emotion.
And Wren never imagined that beneath Rhodes's perfect smile and effortless charm lived something darker- something possessive, obsessive, and terrifyingly fixated on him. What starts as attention becomes an uncontrollable claim. What feels like affection becomes something he can't escape. Wren finds himself teetering on the edge of a dangerous game of cat and mouse.
Rhodes calls it love.
Wren calls it a trap.
And he's starting to realize he may never get away. But does he even want to get away?
Is being the object of someone's desire worth risking everything he has, everything that he is?
