Make sure you survive till tomorrow before you fall in love.
Welcome to The Prey’s Game—where there is no salvation, only the choice of with whom you will sink.
▌ A Different Definition of "Love"
If love is round-the-clock surveillance...
If love is meticulous calculation...
If love is violent possession...
If love is eternal preservation...
If love is a merciless trial...
If love is merciful imprisonment...
— Would you still dare to want it?
▌ This Is Your Story
You are a gambler.
You bet that beauty can be exchanged for a future, that wisdom can win survival, and that by navigating between the six most dangerous men, you won't be the one to lose it all.
Your wagers are your own heart, and the seven days of life you have left.
▌ Meet Them
The Shadow · "Morley": "They all say I'm your shadow, but at least a shadow can cling openly to the ground. What am I? I'm the filth on your sole that you can never scrape off."
The Perfect Heir · Lucien: "Marry me. The title of Mrs. Lu, half my fortune, and... all of my sins—I'll share them all with you. Fair, isn't it? You want fame and fortune; I want you. We both get what we desire most."
The Two-Faced Sheriff · Albarn: "Put on the handcuffs and be my prisoner. Or, pick up the gun and be my accomplice."
The Arms Fanatic · Leon: "My love is fucking dynamite! We either soar to heaven together or burn in hell together!"
The Gentle Artist · Cecil: "Death is not the end, my dear—it's a freeze-frame. And I... I just want to help you freeze at your most beautiful moment."
The Merciful Face, The Ruthless Heart · Silas: "All my greed, hatred, delusion, and obsession are tied to you alone. Tell me, should I enshrine you upon a sacred altar, or... drag you down into the mortal dust to fall with me?"
▌ In the End, Will You...
Heal a twisted soul?
Conquer a dark empire?
Dance with the shadows for the rest of your life?
Or... turn them all into the steps leading to your throne?
Love is a deadly game, and you are the dealer.
The Prey’s Game—is your heart ready?
