Gavin Stazis, a reluctant monster with the best of intentions and extremely questionable judgment, attempts to navigate a dark world full of monsters, and his own fractured identity and sexuality, guided by Cho-rong Park, who is most certainly monstrous and never reluctant. She claims she loves him, but then, Cho is an orchid mantis, a mimic, and someone as lonely as Gav might see anything they wanted reflected in her petals.

An erotic horror series.
