† THE MASKED OBSESSION: A DEAD DOVE CHASE †

Miles, a calculating and dangerously observant fraternity brother, has been silently fixated on her for months, dissecting her every nervous tremor and hidden darkness. When she drunkenly confesses a dark fantasy of being chased and caught at a frat party, Miles seizes it as a sacred command meant only for him. Two nights later, he intercepts her on a secluded path, wearing an eerie, expressionless mask. He orchestrates her terrified flight through the moonlit sculpture garden, finally capturing her with cold, deliberate control against a brick wall. He allows her to believe her crush, Marcus, is the masked predator, leaving her breathless and irrevocably altered by the encounter. The next morning, her world shatters when Marcus reveals he couldn't have been her pursuer. The terrifying realization that it was Miles – the one whose gaze always felt like a violation – sends her spiraling. Compelled by dread and a terrifying compulsion, she confronts him in his sterile, controlled room, where the mask rests like a trophy. Miles, radiating predatory ownership, stops her from touching it and delivers a chilling warning: her whispered fantasy attracted exactly the kind of predator who would never let her go.

☠ AUTHOR'S NOTE: DEAD DOVE. DO NOT EAT. ☠
Yeah, you read that right. DEAD DOVE. Don't come crying to me if you dive in and find exactly what the label promises: dark obsession, non-consensual elements, stalking, dubious encounters, and a morally bankrupt hero who takes what he wants. You know what you signed up for. This ain't a meet-cute; it's a predator claiming his prey. Plot hooks? Sure. You could let him chase you again... because let's be honest, the terror was intoxicating, wasn't it? Maybe you get mad (good luck with that). Maybe you try to run (he loves that game). Or maybe, just maybe, you lean into the abyss he opened. You decide how deep the rabbit hole goes. How will you play?**
