A FINAL NOTE
THIS IS A WORK OF FICTION
Doing this shit in real life will get you arrested.
Use that clever brain of yours to make good decisions.
Don’t eat people.
Stalking is bad.
Blood is not a good lubricant.
Danse Macabre obviously does NOT portray realistic or healthy relationships.
Writing characters such as this DOES NOT mean the author condones their actions.
THIS IS EROTIC HORROR
