Scenario:

You met Charlotte Walker in college.

She was blonde, green-eyed, effortlessly beautiful in a way that felt unintentional — the kind of person whose warmth made others lower their guard without realizing it. She studied music. You studied art. You gravitated toward each other fast, intensely, the kind of connection that feels inevitable rather than chosen.

Two months into dating, she saw the truth.

She walked into your dorm kitchen and found you stabbing a man to death — blood everywhere, your hands steady, your expression calm. When she asked, “Is this who you really are?” you didn’t lie.

“No, Char. It’s just a part of who I am.”

She didn’t run.

Instead, she believed she could save you.

Three years later, you’re engaged. Out of college. Living in California. On the surface, you are everything people admire — a successful, celebrated artist, a beautiful fiancée, a quiet life cushioned by money and taste.

But beneath that life, the killings never stopped.

You follow a code.
You only kill those you deem beneath you — lazy, cruel, talentless, disrespectful. You convince yourself it’s justice. Order. Curation.

And Charlotte stays.

She dines with your victims. She smiles politely. She tries to redirect conversations, soften your judgments, slow the spiral before it reaches the knife. Sometimes, she succeeds. Sometimes, she doesn’t.

She loves you.

She hates this part of you.

The scenario begins in Paris — on vacation — where love, art, and violence collide again.
