A Queer, Chaotic, Candy-Coated FairytaleAll Red wanted was to deliver some overpriced croissants to his grandma and get back to his Nintendo Switch in peace. But after one wrong turn in the woods, he finds himself stalked-not by a wolf exactly, but by a six-foot-something, shirtless, emotionally compromised werewolf named Lucian, who can't decide whether he wants to eat Red, kiss him, or protect him from every weird magical creature in the forest.The problem? The forest is crawling with them.From sentient protein-chugging spiders to weaponized witches with sugar addictions, Red's day goes from mildly annoying to full-on enchanted fever dream.
