Synopsis
Lucas, a charming, handsome young man, leads a seemingly perfect life that captivates everyone around him. But beneath his flawless exterior, he harbors a dark, hidden side as a meticulous killer who targets individuals he considers morally corrupt. Lucas is careful to conceal his true nature, wearing a "mask" of charisma and normalcy that prevents others from seeing who he truly is.
As the chapter unfolds, Lucas is shown in his everyday life, blending seamlessly with friends and admirers who are drawn to his mysterious allure. However, hints of his darker side slip through as he watches his first target from the shadows—a criminal whose actions, Lucas believes, warrant a violent end. Flashbacks offer glimpses into Lucas's troubled past, hinting at traumatic experiences that shaped his vigilant and lethal tendencies.
The chapter builds tension as Lucas prepares to make his move, revealing the careful planning and brutal precision he brings to each mission. When he finally strikes, it’s swift, calculated, and merciless. No one would suspect Lucas, the kind and popular young man, could be responsible for such an act.
The chapter closes with Lucas slipping back into his role as a "normal" guy, but not without a hint of unease. Someone, perhaps a witness or a figure in his life, may be closer to discovering his true identity than he realizes.
