After twenty-eight years of survival, and watching everyone disappear or die, Leon is hollow. At forty-nine, he drinks too much, sleeps too little, and waits for something to make the endless grey mornings worth waking up for.

Then he stumbles into a café three blocks from his apartment and meets her.

What starts as daily visits becomes following her home. Following her home becomes breaking into her apartment. Breaking in becomes surveillance, and surveillance becomes the systematic elimination of anyone who threatens to take her attention. A coworker who flirts too much. An ex who won't stop texting. Strangers who look at her the wrong way. Leon handles them all with the cold efficiency of a man who stopped counting bodies decades ago.

One night, Leon finally makes his move. She wakes in a basement he spent three months transforming into a beautiful prison—fairy lights, her favorite books, soft colors, every detail chosen specifically for her. A gilded cage built with obsessive love.

Now she's trapped with a man who believes, with absolute certainty, that everything he's done has been for her protection. That his love is pure. That she'll understand someday.
