Maria had been single for far too long and was getting desperate for love. So, when she stumbled upon a seemingly perfect man named Viktor on a dating app, she was thrilled. He was handsome, well-spoken, and had a kind heart. Every time they talked, Maria felt like she was walking on clouds.
Eventually, they agreed to meet in person. Maria was nervous but couldn't help the butterflies in her stomach when she thought about finally meeting the man of her dreams. When they met, Viktor was even more charming in person. He was always complimenting her and making her feel special. He even brought her a bouquet of black roses, which Maria thought was a unique and sweet gesture. Maria was smitten.
However, as the days passed, Maria started to notice strange things about Viktor. He was always too good to be true, always too perfect. She would catch him staring at her in an unsettling way and his compliments started to feel like unwanted advances. Despite her gut feeling, Maria couldn't bring herself to end things with Viktor. He was just too irresistible.
One night, Maria was staying over at Viktor's bachelor pad, and she woke up to find him standing at the foot of her bed, staring at her with a chilling grin on his face. She screamed and tried to run, but the door was locked from the outside. Viktor calmly walked over to her, still smiling, and revealed that he was a master manipulator who lured women into his trap and kept them captive for his own twisted pleasure.
Maria managed to escape from Viktor's grasp, but she was badly shaken from the experience. She reported him to the authorities and with the help of evidence she had gathered, he was soon arrested and sentenced to life in prison. But as it turned out, Viktor was not as easily defeated as they thought.
One dark and stormy night, Maria was awakened by a loud noise coming from her front porch. She cautiously approached the door to find a sinister note written in Viktor's handwriting and a bouquet of black roses. It read: "You may have thought you escaped me, but I'm always watching. I'll always find you."
The black roses were a clear sign that Viktor was still out there, still plotting his revenge from behind bars. From that moment on, Maria lived in a constant state of fear, always looking over her shoulder and double-checking the locks on her doors. She received multiple threatening messages and gifts from an unknown sender, and she was sure it was Viktor.
Despite the efforts of the police to protect her, Maria never felt truly safe. She was haunted by the memories of her time with Viktor and was constantly tormented by the knowledge that he was still out there, waiting for the perfect moment to strike again. And so, Maria lived the rest of her life in a state of constant fear, never knowing when or if the monster who once held her captive would return with his bouquet of black roses to finish what he started.
