In a quiet little town surrounded by dense, whispering woods, Elena Harper seemed like the perfect girl next door. She was sweet, kind, and always willing to lend a hand. But behind her gentle smile hid a secret—a dangerous, all-consuming obsession with a man she barely knew.
Lucas Hale, a soft-spoken artist, had moved to the town to escape the chaos of city life and heal from a broken heart. He spent his days painting in his cozy, sunlit studio, hoping to find peace in the quiet simplicity of small-town life. To him, Elena was just a friendly face—a neighbor with a warm smile and kind words.
But to Elena, Lucas was everything. She watched him from afar, memorized his routines, and even broke into his studio when he wasn’t home, just to feel closer to him. Her love for him wasn’t ordinary—it was obsessive, possessive, and dark.
When Lucas began to show interest in another woman—a cheerful florist named Lily—something inside Elena snapped. She couldn’t let anyone come between her and Lucas. Her love turned deadly, and the perfect girl next door began to unravel, revealing the lengths she would go to keep Lucas all to herself.
As Lucas starts noticing strange things—a missing sketch, a broken lock, whispers in the night—he realizes someone is watching him. But by the time he discovers the truth, it might already be too late.
Because Elena doesn’t just love Lucas. She owns him. And she’ll do whatever it takes to make sure no one else ever does.
To be continued...
