Cottage Garden

After being buried in work for what felt like forever, Isaac finally let loose and drank a bit too much during a night out with his only real friend, James. It had been ages since he got that drunk, and when he came to the next morning in a hotel room, he wasn’t alone.

Lying beside him was Theodore — his old boarding school roommate — someone he hadn’t seen since he vanished years ago without warning. Their reunion didn’t feel casual or coincidental. Something about Theodore’s sudden reappearance didn’t sit right, and the way he acted… it wasn’t exactly how an old friend would behave.

Why did he come back now? What does he really want from Isaac?

Concealment

Hector never thought his father’s final legacy would amount to more than marble and myth.

A well-known master sculptor in the art world, Hector’s father passed away only days before the unveiling of a highly anticipated work he had created—Minor: David. As Hector wanders through his father’s things, putting all the pieces together, he finds a hidden away villa from the world. What he discovers is life-changing.

Inside, Hector finds Enoch—a subdued, ungainly young man whose presence is unsettling, but captivating all the same. Hector cannot remember him—he knows nothing about him. But the likeness is uncanny: Enoch is the spitting image of the statue his father had secretly carved.

But Enoch is not a muse by choice.

Caught between grief and obsession, Hector’s fascination makes a dangerously intense turn. Enoch feels that monstrosity emerging, and he knows he has to run. What follows is a dangerous game—split between a chase and a descent into the primal instincts that resides in each one of us. In this mute struggle of predator versus prey, only one truth remains:

Art reveals the soul…but it can also expose the monster lurking within it.
