[The Four 01] • Styx

Concrete.

Next to me. In front of me. Behind me. Below me.

It mocks me.

My prison.

My hell.

I don’t know who I am. Where I am. How long I’ve been here.

Decades? Centuries?

It’s felt like an eternity.

For all the unknowns, one truth has grown stronger with the torturous passing of time...

I wish I was dead.

Or, at least, I did until I heard her.

She gives me hope. A purpose.

Freedom.

I follow her, soaking in everything she does and growing more dependent. Never in my long life have I seen anyone so perfect.

Now I just have to find a way to make her hear me.

And being able to see me would probably help, too…

Warning: This book is NOT a dark romance, though it is still recommended for readers 18+ due to strong adult language, themes, and lovin’ so good, it must be magicks.
