Obsession

RILEY

I've been broken for a while, afraid of what monsters lurked in the shadows of the cities, and I've always been careful of who I brought close to me and who I kept at a distance.

Until I met him.

The boy in the mask who stood beneath my window.

My first instinct was to question him, but there was something else I wanted.

Something less innocent.

And despite me watching nightmares swarm around him like a monsoon, I could only find myself wandering closer.

For he was my new obsession.

PARIS

She was a task.

She was a job.

I was supposed to protect her from the monster who was murdering everyone close to her; the serial killer.

But something about her fascinated me. Her style, her hair, her interests.

I found myself wanting her.

I wanted her body, and I wanted her mind.

Welcome to my nightmare, Riley Princes, good luck finding a way out.

You can try to escape, and I'd let you.

But I know you don't want to because you would've run so long ago.

Even though you deny it, I'm your obsession, and you are mine.
