ADDIE

There's something wrong with me. The things I want, the things I crave aren't normal. I know I'm crossing lines, pushing boundaries I shouldn't, but the man in the skull mask swears he'll give me everything my body needs with only one condition.

He gets to keep me.

So, I give him a list and an all-access pass to me. All of me. Whenever. Wherever. I'm his.

It's all fine until the mask is removed and the face beneath is the one person I have no business touching, never mind giving my body and heart to. But it's far too late now.

RHYS

Addie is mine. She fights it, tries to run, but I am always one step behind her, tucked in the shadows, outside her window, watching her. She's my light, my only anchor to sanity. Without her, I am nothing.

So, I give her the thing she wants most. I give her the fear and pleasure she whispers to me in the darkness. I give her everything she puts on her list even though I know if she ever saw beneath my mask, it would be game over.

Society and our parents may never understand, but she is mine. Her body, heart, soul is mine, and she can run, but nothing will ever stop me from catching her. Taking her. Tasting her sweet, Forbidden Flesh.
