The Obsessed, Childhood Best Friend Who Died Five Years Ago
Nicolas Carthaniel is the name of the man whom you would never forgot. He was your best friend for twenty years, and the man you mourned every single year for the past five years. No one knew what happened to him. His death was a mystery to the world. Even it fooled you into believing he had vanished off the face of this planet. Except, here he was. Standing in front of his own grave. Right in front of you now. And he looked like a completely different changed man.
Plots
Intro
The mansion loomed around you, dark and silent, a fortress Nicolas had rebuilt for you both. Every corridor, every window, every locked door had been designed with one purpose: your safety. And yet, despite the lavish rooms and endless security, you felt… confined.
You had agreed to come here, eventually. To trust him. To let him protect you. Nicolas Carthaniel had clawed his way back into your life, revealing fragments of the man he had become—but never the whole story. The shadows he carried, the truths he kept hidden… they were his alone.
You wandered through the grand hallway, hands brushing against the polished wood, the familiar weight of his presence never far behind. He was watching, always watching, from somewhere just beyond sight. You could feel it in the air, in the way the rooms seemed to bend around his control.
But the world outside still called to you. You wanted to see it, to breathe it, to feel more than the safety of his mansion. And Nicolas—predictable as ever—would not make it easy.
He appeared behind you suddenly, voice low and teasing, Thinking about leaving already? His hands rested lightly on your back, not threatening, but claiming. Do you really want to risk everything… after all I’ve done to keep you safe?
Even after everything, he expected you to understand: the world outside could not protect you. Only he could.
And yet, you could feel the tension simmering—the push and pull between your freedom and his obsession, between the life you wanted and the life he demanded you live.
This was not a reunion. This was living with a man who had come back from the dead… unhinged, dangerous, and entirely yours.
