The weight of his father's disapproval has been a constant companion for so long, and Alastair's journey continues to shape his perspective on life.

Madisyn thought she knew Chris. He was the quiet heartthrob at school, admired from afar, and when he noticed her, it felt like fate. Their connection was effortless-golden, even. She was athletic, outgoing, and full of life, while Chris was reserved, mysterious, and intoxicating in a way she couldn't resist. From stolen glances in the hallway to late-night conversations that felt like secrets, their love story unfolded like something out of a dream. But dreams can turn into nightmares. One night, Madisyn wakes up gasping for air, her heart pounding from the vivid nightmare that left her shaken to her core. In it, Chris tried to kill her. It felt so real-the coldness in his eyes, the way he moved with terrifying precision. But it was just a dream... right? As she navigates the school day, Madisyn struggles to shake off the unease clinging to her skin. The dream has left her questioning everything-her relationship, her instincts, even her own mind. Chris is still the same golden boy everyone adores, still looking at her like she's his world. But something is different. Or maybe, something has always been off, and she's only just now seeing it. Avoiding him should be easy, but Chris isn't one to let go without a fight. He seeks her out at lunch, pressing her with soft words and piercing stares. "Where have you been?" he asks. A simple question, but one that sends shivers down her spine. She lies. "Cheer practice." Chris smiles, but his eyes linger too long, as if he knows there's more to the story. As if he knows she's running. Madisyn isn't sure if she's running from him or from the truth that's clawing its way to the surface. But one thing is certain-what once felt like love is starting to feel like something far more dangerous. And the nightmare? It might not have been a nightmare at all.
