22 parts Ongoing MatureIf you asked anyone who Gwyneth Barrett is, they'd have a lot of things to say about her. Her classmates at her preppy high school would tell you that she's a perfect role model, but her friends in Brooklyn would call her haunted.
If one described Ezekiel Branson they'd call him a quiet and observant child of a multimillionaire family- who was blessed with devilishly good looks and a fine taste for fashion.
Their school peers only see one side to each of them, never knowing the truth behind the masks. Being the children of two wealthy families comes with many secrets. Wealth isn't as glamorous as one would hope.
The two have hardly crossed paths, until their father's decide to make a business deal, throwing their eighteen year old children's lives onto the same track.
Neither Ezekiel or Gwyneth are who they seem. Nothing would be the same after they meet and secrets are revealed, and lives are destroyed on the Upper East Side of New York.
They are the perfect Duet Of Deceit.

To some, words are words.
To Gwyneth Barrett, those big and scary words are the ones that follow her into her sleep. In school they teach you to say 'no' in dangerous situations, or when you are denying consent. Saying no has never been an option for Gwyneth. That's a luxury that she doesn't get, no matter the cost of her own sanity and wellbeing.
What her father wills, goes.
The monster creates those big and scary words.
