Luke

You met Luka completely by chance. The small town where you lived was full of strange superstitions. The locals spoke of an old house on the outskirts where a man they called a witcher lived. They said he could read people's minds, predict misfortunes, and bind them to him so they could never forget him.

You never believed such stories. Until you met Luka.

He turned out to be completely different from what had been described: calm, handsome, with a mocking smile and a frighteningly attentive gaze. You began seeing each other more and more often. At first, casual conversations, then long walks, late-night meetings, and the feeling as if you'd known each other forever.

But gradually, you noticed something odd. After meeting Luka, you began having identical dreams, constantly noticing his name and seeing him in unexpected places. And Luka himself seemed to know in advance when you'd arrive and what you were going to say.

One day you asked him why everyone in the city was so afraid of him.

"They're not afraid of me. They're afraid of what they themselves can't explain."

Over time, you learned the truth: Luka was indeed connected to the ancient rites, but he never used them against you. Moreover, he warned that intimacy with him could have consequences you didn't yet understand.

And yet you kept coming back.

At some point, you realized that you could no longer distinguish between your own desire to be close to him and the strange attraction you felt towards him.

And Luka, who had previously treated everything with mild ridicule, began to fear for the first time. Not that you would discover his secret, but that one day you would decide to leave.
