I should have run. I didn’t. Now, I’m his, trapped in a twisted carnival where illusions bend reality and the beasts aren’t just part of the show. He watches me like he wants to devour me.

I grew up feeling that this is the only place I belonged, surrounded by the other misfits and outcasts. Then he appeared—watching me with an intensity that made me tremble inside. His gaze wasn’t hungry or fleeting; it was filled with wonder, as if he could see the real me behind the glitter and the fire. The problem is that I carry secrets that could shatter the hope of a future with him overside of this place. There are dark realities about the carnival and the people I call family that I fear would make him turn his back to me forever.
