Tess
It's been five years since I was the foolish girl who fell in love with a dangerous man -- a man who runs a criminal organization for black market jobs. I left heartbroken and pregnant, with no other options but to flee for a new life. Over the last several weeks, I've been receiving threats that have escalated. The only way to protect our daughter is to make a deal with the devil himself and hope that Ace will have mercy on us. My hope lies in the chance that my former lover will help me and the daughter he never wanted.
Ace
My siblings and I run a facility called the Deck. Tess became my obsession ever since I caught her on camera crawling into my childhood treehouse. I was only going to watch her, but my obsession grew. I started leaving her gifts, and she left me notes that continued to fuel my desire. She should have run while she had the chance, but I can't seem to let her go, nor does she realize what kind of man she let into her life. Until she disappears without a trace, leaving me no note or explanation. Now, she comes back with a little girl who has my eyes. She should never have come back because this time I won't be letting her go.

June 2025 updated storyline for the second edition. The story remains the same, adding details to the story to help the flow.
