Unmasked Desires

A Dark Small-Town Stalker Romance

By: Scarlett Noir

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

THEY DON’T JUST WATCH.
THEY WAIT FOR YOU TO STEP CLOSER.

After one brutal leak destroys her reputation, Tessa Warren abandons the city for her late aunt’s remote, ivy-draped house in Maple Hollow. She’s come for obscurity.

For quiet.
For a life no one can touch.
But quiet doesn’t mean safe.
Something moves in the attic.

A figure in a black mask stands at the tree line, patient and unshaken.
And a locked trunk in the attic holds the truth: her aunt once belonged to a hidden order where anonymity is power, ritual is law, and every woman must make her choice.

He never speaks.
He never follows.
He lets her come to him.

Drawn into midnight meetings and wordless invitations, Tessa finds herself entangled in a world of control, desire, and dangerous permission. Every step deeper blurs the line between threat and salvation—and forces her to decide which is more terrifying: being hunted… or being seen.

Unmasked Desires is a slow-burn dark romance steeped in obsession, masked power, and the sharp edge of surrender. For readers who crave morally gray protectors, heroines who don’t stay broken, and heat that builds like a storm you can’t outrun.

18+ only. Contains explicit themes, psychological tension, and characters who thrive in the shadows.

Chapters

the chapter list shows many chapters missing and makes the story a little confusing at times. Tessa also says Ashs name during one of the first chapters even though he did not tell her what to call him
