𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐍 𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐄𝐍𝐈𝐓𝐘 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝟏 𝐢𝐧 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐌𝐍𝐄𝐃 𝐎𝐀𝐓𝐇𝐒 𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐄𝐒 ✦ ✧ ✦ ✧ ✦ She's the light that pierces my darkness. Yet, I know... I'll burn her to the ground. The first time I saw her, she was just an innocent face. The second time? She became an obsession, a constant temptation. Now, she is the only thing that haunts me-the only thing I want to possess. I should stay away. But I won't. I don't give up on what's mine. She believes she can fight me, can push me away. But the truth is: she belongs to me. Every curve, every breath, every damn whisper. She's mine. The power I crave, the control I need, it's all wrapped up in her. And she's too naïve to realize it. But when the secrets come tumbling out... when the lies we've built this on start crumbling... Will she run? Or will she be consumed by me? In a world where trust is a lie, betrayal is inevitable, and love is a curse... The stakes are set. The rules? There are none. ✦ ✧ ✦ ✧ ✦
