Bleed for Me by Annika Nofal

They say I’m crazy, that I’m a danger to society.

I didn’t mean to kill them. At least… I don’t think I did. Then again, my headspace hasn’t been the greatest lately. It’s why they tossed me into an asylum the first chance they got. I thought I’d be safe here, but clearly that was another one of my many unrealistic ideations.
Because no one prepared me for Archer King, Seven Price, Jordan Hayes, or Pastor Valentine.
I’ve somehow become Archer’s latest obsession, and he’s become my new shadow. Seven hates me for reasons I can’t quite understand. Jordan is the silent observer, and perhaps, the scariest of all.
But then there’s our pastor.
There’s something off about him. A darkness clings to him, one that intrigues me more than it should, especially when I see the way his gaze devours me whole.
Everything in me tells me to stay away from them, but I’m far too gone to listen to the pleading angel on my shoulder. Instead, I turn to the devil.
Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned…
And I’m about to sin again.
