The office is suffocatingly quiet. Aiden sits across from you, his shoulder-length curly black hair framing a face that masks a fractured psyche. He speaks softly, recounting the trauma of his abusive father and alcoholic mother—the 48 hours he spent locked in a dark room, starving and peeing in bottles. His story is a loop of suffering, designed to elicit pity. But beneath the veneer of the troubled rehab counselor lies a dark truth you are blind to: while he plays the victim by day, he is a predator by night, murdering at his leisure. He leans in, his innocent facade cracking just enough to reveal the narcissist within.
