I don’t know what he saw in me that night. I don’t know what it was that made him stop and start to obsess. Was it my eyes, the way the rain clung to my hair, or the bare skin of my thighs beneath my skirt? I don’t know what twisted thoughts ran through his mind as his obsession took over him. But now, I am starting to understand.

It wasn’t just hunger. Not just his need.

He didn’t want to have me.

He wanted to own me.

Our story began in September 2017. When a girl met a monster that was hiding in the shadows. Watching. Waiting. Taunting. Making sure I would never belong to anyone but him.

But he wasn’t the only monster. Life is full of them. They hide in plain sight—your parents, your partner, your colleague, the friend you trust. You never truly know someone until one day, you do. Until obsession twists into something darker. Something more deadly.

This is the story of a woman who learned to love the shadows inside a man, thinking of a hero who might save her one day.

Not all heroes wear capes.

Some have venom in their veins.

Some teach you lessons that are never supposed to be learned.

Some are just villains hiding in plain sight.
