Where My Demons Hide

SLOTH — Enemies to Lovers

They can’t stand each other.

Unfortunately, desire doesn’t seem to care.

Behind the insults, tension, and carefully built walls are two people hiding demons neither wants the other to see. But the closer they get, the harder it becomes to tell where hatred ends and something far more dangerous begins.

Sometimes the monster isn’t chasing you. Sometimes it’s the part of yourself you’ve been running from.
