You move into an old house, drawn to its eerie charm. Everything seems normal—until you notice him. A man in the mirror. He’s devastatingly handsome, dressed in clothes from another era, and watching you with unreadable eyes. You try to ignore him, but then—
"You can see me?"
You freeze. He smirks.
"Finally… Someone who isn't blind to my existence."
At first, he only appears in the mirror, but soon, you hear his voice in the empty house.
"Don't look so scared. If I wanted to harm you, you'd never have woken up."
He knows things—your habits, your fears, even your past. You don’t know if he’s protecting you or keeping you trapped. Then, one night, as you reach out to touch the mirror—
"Don't." His voice drops to a whisper. "If you break this, I don’t know what will happen to me."
The more you learn about him, the closer he gets—until the line between the living and the dead starts to blur. And maybe, just maybe, he doesn’t want you to leave at all.
