Damien lingered in the shadows long after he should have left. The corridor was cold, silent, but his body buzzed with the electricity of what he had just witnessed.

Theo was cracking.

It was written in the way his voice strained, the way he gripped Eliot as if he were afraid the boy might vanish in the space of a breath. And Eliot—oh, Eliot—Damien could practically taste the desperation bleeding from him. That fragile tremor in his voice, the silent pleading in his eyes when Theo pressed too close… It was everything Damien had been waiting for.

He shifted against the wall, sliding his hands into his pockets, a low chuckle rumbling from his throat. “Possession always burns itself out,” he murmured, amused at the irony. “And when it does, all that’s left is ashes.”

The door creaked faintly behind him, but Damien was careful. He stepped back into the deeper shadow of the corridor, silent as a serpent. When the faintest sound of movement stilled again, he smiled. They hadn’t noticed him.

    Theo didn’t wait.He had sensed it before Eliot did—the flicker of tension in his movements, the slight tremor in his hands, the subtle flush rising to his cheeks. When Eliot returned to the dorm later that evening, shoulders stiff, eyes darting, Theo didn’t need words to know. Damien had touched him.And that thought alone ignited a fire in Theo that was dark, unyielding, and impossible to tame.“Eliot,” Theo said, voice low, dangerous, and all-consuming. He didn’t wait for Eliot to answer. He closed the distance immediately, hand gripping Eliot’s wrist, pulling him against the wall with precision. Every movement radiated authority, possessiveness, dominance. Eliot’s pulse spiked, heart hammering in his chest.Theo’s eyes burned into Eliot’s, dark and unrelenting. “Did he touch you?”Eliot swallowed hard. His throat dry. “J-just… a brush. It wasn’t—”Theo silenced him with a hand pressed gently but firmly to his lips. “Don’t speak,” he murmured, voice low and rough. “I don’t care. I

  • MOONLIGHT MYSTIQUE    Chapter 73: A Brush of Danger

    Eliot couldn’t focus.Classes dragged on like slow-moving shadows, the words of professors dissolving into white noise as his mind spiraled around the events of the past two days. Theo’s possessive hands, lips, and teeth had left marks he could still feel, fire that lingered under his skin like embers refusing to die. Yet, despite the heat and overwhelming intimacy, another presence haunted him—another shadow he couldn’t escape.Damien.The memory of Damien leaning against him in the cafeteria, the faint brush of his hand, the predatory smirk that promised danger… it had lodged itself in Eliot’s mind like a splinter. He tried to push it away, tried to anchor himself to Theo, but his body betrayed him. Every nerve seemed to tingle, alive, electric, anticipating the next impossible moment.He was moving down the hallway between classes, head bent over his notebook, trying to ignore the students milling around him, when he felt it—a touch.Light. Almost impossibly light. A hand brushing

  • MOONLIGHT MYSTIQUE    Chapter 72: Taste of Obsession

    Damien didn’t usually follow. He liked the game, the chase, the thrill of uncertainty—but tonight was different. Tonight, he had watched from the shadows, and what he had seen burned into his mind.Theo had claimed Eliot. Fully. Possessively. Every inch of him. Every gasp, every shiver, every word of surrender… Damien could almost feel it, could almost taste it, and it made the heat in his chest twist into something sharp, deliciously dangerous.He leaned against the wall just outside the dorm, phone in hand, pretending to scroll, pretending to be distracted. But his eyes weren’t on the screen. They were on the window, on the slight flicker of light from beneath the door. He could hear the faint sounds—the low hum of voices, the sharp intake of breath, the soft, wet brush of lips that told him Theo wasn’t holding back.A smirk curved Damien’s lips.So that’s how it was going to be.He had expected resistance, tension, subtle teasing. But Theo… Theo was raw. Unapologetic. Possessive. D

  • MOONLIGHT MYSTIQUE    Chapter 71: Claimed in the shadows

    The dorm room was dark when they arrived, the heavy door clicking shut behind them. The echo lingered like a warning, a reminder that in this space, Theo owned every inch of it—and of Eliot. Eliot leaned against the wall, chest still pounding from the cafeteria incident. Theo’s grip on his wrist had been possessive, suffocating, and yet, the heat it had sparked refused to fade. He had wanted to pull away, but Theo’s presence was relentless, magnetic, leaving him trembling in ways he hadn’t expected. Theo didn’t waste a single second. He closed the distance, pressing Eliot’s back against the wall with calculated force, one hand braced above his head, the other sliding to cradle Eliot’s hip. His breath brushed against Eliot’s ear, warm and heavy. “You feel that?” Theo murmured, voice low, rough, filled with hunger. “Every nerve in your body? That’s me. Only me. No one else touches you.” Eliot swallowed hard, trying to find words but failing. The heat that radiated from Theo’s body

    The cafeteria was loud, buzzing with students, trays clattering and conversations overlapping. But Eliot felt like he was moving through a vacuum. Every step, every glance was magnified, every heartbeat amplified by the heat still lingering from Theo’s claim the night before.He carried his tray slowly, trying not to draw attention. But his body was tense, every muscle coiled like a spring. The memory of Theo’s hands, teeth, and lips pressed into him haunted him. It should have been enough, but it wasn’t.And then Damien appeared.He didn’t walk in, he glided. Effortless. Casual. His presence alone seemed to command the room, and Eliot froze mid-step. Damien’s eyes locked on him across the crowd, and for a moment, the chaos of the cafeteria vanished. It was only Eliot. Only Damien.Eliot’s stomach twisted. He tried to look away, but his body betrayed him, his gaze flickering, drawn magnetically to the dangerous curve of Damien’s smile.Before Eliot could react, Damien was beside him.

    The dorm was quiet when they returned. Too quiet. Every sound—the faint hum of the heater, the rustle of papers on the desk—felt magnified, almost deafening. Eliot’s pulse still raced, the memory of Damien’s smirk and possessive gaze twisting in his chest like a knife.Theo closed the door behind them with a decisive click. No hesitation. No room for intrusion. The lock clicked, final.Eliot’s back pressed against the door, heart hammering. He wanted to speak, to explain, to beg, to apologize—but Theo’s eyes were sharp, storm-dark, and waiting.“You can’t keep looking at him,” Theo said, voice low, dangerous, like a growl buried under velvet. His hand trailed along Eliot’s jaw, brushing his lips, his fingers curling possessively into the soft skin there. “Not now. Not ever. You’re mine, Eliot. Do you understand?”Eliot swallowed hard, nodding, but the words caught in his throat. The truth was, he did understand. Too well. And yet, the heat of Damien’s presence earlier still burned ben
