I took the rose.
Now I'm trapped in a house that breathes and bound to the man who watched me steal it.
He offers me rules, a bargain, and five nights.
But every time he touches me, something inside me fractures.
And the house... it's watching.
She came desperate to find her father and burning.
The moment she crossed my gate, the curse stirred.
I should have sent her away.
Instead... I kept her.
Now the house is unraveling.
She's slipping through my hands.
And if she falls for me... she won't survive.
