The Shadow in the Mirror by Skylar Flare

Trapped between my desires and his darkness, he watches from the shadows, waiting for the moment I surrender. When I moved into the old mansion to escape my past, I never expected him—the monster lurking behind the mirror. At first, he was just a shadow, a haunting presence I could brush off as a trick of the mind. But now, he’s become more—his form sharper, his hunger undeniable. Each night, he invades my dreams, blurring the line between fear and lust. I should be terrified, I should run—but instead, I find myself drawn to him. His voice whispers in the dark, promising pleasure and power, pulling me deeper into his world. As the mirror pulses with his presence, I face an impossible choice: remain safe in my reality, or surrender to the shadow in the mirror and let him consume me completely. The boundary between our worlds is breaking, and the deeper I fall, the harder it is to remember what’s real. But he’s waiting for me. And now that I’ve seen him, there’s no going back. Will I escape the monster’s grasp, or will I become his forever? Trigger warnings include dark theme and psychological tension. No cliffhanger, no cheating, HEA guaranteed.
