(Cat and Mouse #0.5) Satan’s Affair By H.D. Carlton

Satan’s Affair by H.D. Carlton is a blood-soaked, twisted novella that plunges you into the mind of Sibyl “Sibby,” a delusional vigilante with a knack for sniffing out “evil” men at a traveling Halloween carnival called Satan’s Affair. Raised in an abusive sex cult, Sibby’s warped reality drives her to stalk and slaughter those she deems demons—pedophiles, abusers—luring them into her “Dollhouse” haunted attraction. Her five henchmen, who she shares a polyamorous, explicit relationship with, aid her gory executions, blending horror with steamy reverse-harem scenes that start early and don’t let up. The 186-page prequel to the Haunting Adeline duology, set in a creepy carnival, follows Sibby’s rampage in Seattle, where she targets a pedophile ring with help from a mysterious figure, Zade, whose motives are murky. Carlton’s vivid prose and a Wes Craven-meets-Rob Zombie vibe make it unputdownable, with a mind-blowing twist—revealing Sibby’s schizophrenia and her henchmen as hallucinations—that redefines the story. Fans love Sibby’s “I’m not crazy, I’m passionate” mantra and the Melanie Martinez-inspired playlist, but critics call it cringey, overly graphic, or “Wattpad-level” with typos and thin plotting. BookTok’s split: some adore the deranged thrill and Sibby’s rage, others DNF for its intense triggers (murder, child abuse, sexual assault). It’s a short, shocking intro to the Cat and Mouse universe that’s not for the faint-hearted.

Who Should Read It? This is for dark romance and horror fans who love unhinged female leads and gory thrills, readers craving Haunting Adeline or Alpha Inmate vibes, or anyone into fast-paced, twisted novellas with reverse-harem spice. If you’re hooked on Verity or Born, Darkly and can stomach triggers like graphic violence, sexual assault, child abuse, cult trauma, and mental health struggles (check Carlton’s warnings!), grab this—perfect for ages 18+ for a quick, disturbing binge. It’s a standalone prequel but enhances Haunting Adeline. If you hate excessive gore, schizophrenia stigma, or shallow plots, skip it—check reviews first.
