Also titled: The Captive with Avoidant Attachment Who Can't Stop Wavering in Her Love for Her Prisoner
What [Ripresa] wants is to lock [Prait] away and make him love her in the simplest, fastest, most direct way possible.
Male lead: She's so gentle... No, no, get a grip on yourself.
Female lead: He actually says he's willing to stay... It's a lie, a lie. He must be trying to trick me into letting him go.
Both: We absolutely mustn't fall for it!
[Before You Read]:
1. A short story.
2. Third-person narration.
3. As the blurb says, the woman imprisons the man.
4. As the blurb says, neither of them is quite right in the head.
5. Pure romance, with no other romantic relationships.
6. The focus is on their relationship, with little complicated plot.
7. The female lead is a little yandere, and the male lead has a bit of a charm buff.
8. Don't scrutinize the story's setting, such as what era it is or whether certain things exist in it. That's not the point of the novel, okay? The setting is just my own take.
9. The themes and elements are a little unusual. If you feel uncomfortable or dislike them while reading, please click the X.
Note: This is something the author wrote for their own enjoyment. It doesn't have much logic. I'm just having fun writing it, so please enjoy it, but don't apply real-world standards to it.
P.S. This is an atypical, incomplete case of Stockholm syndrome. There's a detailed explanation in the author's note for Chapter One.
Theme: Possibility begins with taking action.
