 She calls me Hudson...

But they know me as Pete.

A simple man with a common name

They see the warm smile of their neighbor,

Not the cold eyes of a man who kills for the thrill of it and sleeps like a baby afterward

Until Starling

My son’s girlfriend and my new obsession

She falls into my lap like a wounded bird with broken wings

Branding me with her touch, making me an addict after just one taste

She thinks I’ll give her up once she gives in

But she’s never met a man like me before

And Forbidden Fruit was always my favorite.

He calls me Birdie...

But they know me as Starling.

A strange girl with a pretty name

I’m the orphan everyone pities

A perpetual victim who has spent more time on her knees than most

Until Hudson

He's a monster of his own making

One who crosses all my lines and pushes every limit

He doesn’t want to free me; he wants to cage me

And if I resist, he’ll destroy the only boy I’ve ever loved.

After all, monsters don’t win hearts

They steal them.

Author note: There are no heroes in this story, no sweet declarations of love or hard-earned redemption arcs.

But then, some girls don’t need a hero to save them; they need a villain willing to burn right along with them.
