Little Moth

Some lights don't guide you. They pull you in. Closer.

Lauren never thought much about Reed. Another regular, black coffee, corner table. The kind of man you might forget, the moment he leaves. Until she wakes up somewhere she doesn't recognize. Cold concrete, a locked door, and someone familiar standing at the bottom of the stairs. Injury makes escape impossible, withdrawal makes it worse, and the longer she's trapped in his house, the more survival starts to look like cooperation.

Food, water, medicine. A steady voice in a place where nothing else is, and no way out. He doesn't threaten her, he takes care of her. Reed isn't just watching. He understands her every weakness, every habit, every hidden piece she thought no one noticed. As fear starts to blur into something more dangerous, Lauren is forced to confront a truth she can't outrun:

What happens when the person who took everything from you becomes the only one holding you together?
