Summary

Six years. To the world, Alex is a golden angel-rich, devoted, and X's inseparable best friend. But X knows the truth: Alex is a predator who has built a cage out of gold, silk, and silent threats. When a single moment of jealousy turns their "perfect" friendship into a lethal hunt, the world ends in a dark alleyway. But death was only the beginning. Waking up back at the start of that fateful day, X realizes he's been given a second chance. But he isn't the only one who feels the echoes of the past. As X begins to play a dangerous game of manipulation to take the leash from his captor, new players emerge from the shadows. Three mysterious figures-each with their own dark desires-begin to circle the golden cage. Now, X must navigate a maze of obsession where the lines between protector and predator blur. As the walls close in and the attention of multiple men becomes a suffocating weight, X faces a terrifying choice: Will he finally find the key to his freedom, or will he learn to love the beauty of the cage itself?

PROLOGUE



The cage isn’t defined by its bars; it’s defined by the love that locks the door.
