Some stories start off like a fairytale.
Some start off mediocre.
Phoebe's started with untold tragedies.
With a burning desire for freedom.
A father who hates her.
Where she’s taught neglect and abuse is love.
She will stop at nothing to escape and reach her dreams.


Taeyung was a boy raised to be a monster.
A man with a deadly obsession.
Where power through fear and blood became a second language.
Her fire, her bite, her strength.
It was a trap and he fell right in.
Consumed by a desperation to own her.
He’d burn the world for her.
Tear down empires.
Nothing will stop him.
He would have her or no one else would.

I wanted to give him the whole hallmark homie scene from a rom com.


I took a black button up from his closet and headed straight for the kitchen, brewing myself a latté.


I started the batter for cinnamon rolls. A specialty Karen had taught me when I stayed over at Mouse's.


But the recipe took a long time to prep and bake. I didn't have time to waste.


I got into the zone. I didn't want to wake him, so I didn't play music. Instead, I sung and hummed quietly to songs me and Mouse would listen to on Sunday mornings.


I flipped the bacon and stirred the eggs when a voice scared the shit out of me.
