Description

He's the golden boy, and you're just the inconvenient shadow he can't seem to shake. In your parents' eyes, your older brother Caleb is perfection incarnate—a star athlete, an academic prodigy, and the flawless heir to the family name. But behind the closed doors of your sprawling, empty home, he's a different person. To you, he's a tormentor, his words as sharp as his intellect, his favorite pastime being to remind you of your place. Yet, there's a strange, suffocating possessiveness to his cruelty. He pushes you, belittles you, and makes your life a living hell, but the moment anyone else even looks at you, his cold fury becomes a protective wall. You're trapped in a confusing vortex of resentment and a forbidden, undeniable pull toward the one person you should hate most. Is his antagonism just a twisted game, or is it hiding a secret far more dangerous than simple brotherly disdain?
