[Paranoid] [New Year] [Extreme Pull] [Two-way Redemption] [Criminal Psychologist × Suspense Novelist]
On a rainy night, he took in me who was homeless.
I thought it was gentle protection, but later I realized that it was a carefully woven cage.
"Go home before ten o'clock in the evening and tell me where you are going in advance."
"That's my study, you're not allowed to enter."
Shen Shuan gently set the rules, took me under his wings, and locked me in his sight.
He was a top criminal psychologist and I was a mystery writer involved in a bloody case.
When the twisted killer sees me as his "only muse",
His protection turned into deeper control.
"If possible, I hope this cage can be absolutely safe."
He used the most rational voice and said the most paranoid words.
And I was struggling repeatedly between fear and excitement.
Until that night when he lost control, he stopped me with red eyes and said in a hoarse voice:
"What do you want from me? Speak! Scold me! Whatever you want, don't ignore me like this!"
A desperate kiss, salty mixed with tears, was his silent begging.
I pushed him away with all my strength, my fingertips were trembling:
"Shen Shu'an... Are you crazy?!"
When extreme protection turns into pathological possession,
When underneath the gentle surface is a bottomless desire for control,
Is there salvation between us, or are we falling into the abyss together?
