Running Through His Veins

“Monsters wear many faces. Some smile. Some moan. Some hide behind a badge.” In the retro-futuristic sprawl of Gravesend City, corruption oozes through its steel veins. Crime has evolved—so has pleasure, so has pain. Beneath the mask of order, demons walk in heels, shadows whisper in tongues, and power seduces those too broken to resist. Enter Asher Blackwood — a washed-up detective with a haunted past, a dry wit, and a growing secret. His power? Unstable. His morality? Negotiable. His enemies? Not quite human. As strange events unravel across the city—from haunted brothels to twisted political games—Asher is forced into a spiraling mystery. One that teases his trauma, toys with his lust, and pushes him toward truths far darker than the alleys he calls home. Flirtatious succubi. Scheming elites. Broken oaths. Forbidden power. Every choice tempts him. Every clue costs him. Every pleasure corrupts. And the worst part? The deeper he digs, the more he suspects… he’s part of the problem. Features: Urban mystery with creeping horror and erotic tension Slow-burn power progression from city-level to cosmic chaos Flawed but intelligent male lead Bold female characters with actual agency Foreshadowing, plot twists, and a creeping sense of dread—hidden under neon lights

I wake up each morning only to discover that yesterday never happened the way I remember it. My colleagues reference meetings I never attended. My belongings shift locations when I'm not looking. My reflection blinks before I do. As the boundaries between reality and delusion blur, I begin to notice him - the other me who wears my face but isn't quite right. The one with the smile that never reaches his eyes. The one who leaves cryptic messages telling me I'm "already too late." When I look in the mirror now, sometimes it's not me looking back. The harder I chase the truth, the more fragmented my days become. Am I losing my mind, or is something far more sinister at play? The answer lies buried in my past - in memories I've desperately tried to forget. In a psychological thriller where time itself seems broken, I must confront the question that terrifies me most: If I can't trust my own reflection, who am I really?
