In a quiet village where nothing ever seems to change, four teenagers navigate school, friendships, and the weight of growing up. But when Elias, an eccentric and sharp-witted boy, starts having strange, prophetic dreams, his world begins to shift in ways he never imagined. At first, it’s harmless—just glimpses of the future, whispers of possibilities. But then, Elias discovers something far more dangerous: the ability to control dreams, shape reality, and bend people’s will to his own.

What starts as an innocent experiment quickly spirals into something darker. With each passing day, Elias becomes more consumed by his power, his mind twisting with the endless possibilities it offers. His childhood friend Lina doesn’t see the change, his classmates laugh at his antics, and even his closest friend, Gabriel, remains unaware. But Gabriella—Gabby—senses something is wrong.

She’s always been distant, always kept her guard up. But now, as she watches Elias slip further into his obsession, she finds herself drawn into a mystery bigger than anything she’s ever faced. The strange messages in their group chat, the way Elias’s gaze lingers just a second too long—it all points to something unnatural.

As Elias teeters on the edge, hunger for power clouding his judgment, Gabby is the only one who sees the danger. The only one who might be able to pull him back. But can she reach him before it’s too late? Or will he become something far beyond saving?

A story of power, obsession, and the thin line between control and chaos—where dreams are no longer just dreams, and the greatest battle is not against fate, but against oneself.

Whenever I Want, Love

After giving Gabby the dream, Elias lay awake in his bed, staring at the ceiling. The glow from the streetlight outside cast shifting shadows across his room, but his mind wasn't on the darkness around him.

Revenge was tempting—too tempting. But if he went too far, if he lost control, it would all come crashing down. He needed to be smart about this. Careful.

He rolled onto his side, eyes narrowing as a thought began to take shape.

What if he didn't need to force her to suffer outright? What if he could make her think she had no choice but to obey him?

A slow grin crept across his face.

A dream. But not like Gabby's. This one would be different.

He would keep Karla aware—fully conscious, able to think and feel like she was awake. But in the dream, she would believe something unshakable: that Elias had the right to punish her if she disobeyed. That resisting wasn't just difficult—it was impossible.

And the best part? She wouldn't even realize she was dreaming.

Even better, she wouldn't be able to tell anyone. Not because she couldn't, but because the very idea of telling someone would feel wrong—unnatural. She would rationalize it, convince herself that keeping quiet was the right thing to do.

Elias exhaled, his fingers gripping the edge of his blanket. This was it. A way to make her feel trapped without ever laying a hand on her.

He closed his eyes, focusing, letting the dream take shape in his mind. The power came to him naturally now, as if it had always been waiting inside him.
