It’s like he perfected a persona from a young age—a master charmer, the seducer. He knew exactly what to say, how to say it, and when to say it. He had the moves, the gestures, the carefully chosen words that made women feel seen, wanted, and willing to risk everything just to have him in their lives. But behind that mask was a monster—a darkness so calculated, it stayed hidden for years.
Despite the red flags, I stayed. I didn’t know who I was truly sharing my bed with. I didn’t know his darkest secrets. I accepted his lies as truth. I gave him so much of myself—it came at the expense of my own safety and well-being.
He was a shapeshifter. A master manipulator. He saw me as the innocent lamb: pure, loving, trusting. And he played the part of protector, all while circling me like prey. He was a wolf in sheep’s clothing. And eventually, his mask slipped, revealing the twisted truth.
Our entire connection was a beautiful fantasy built on lies. When it all fell apart, I was left alone to piece together the shattered truth. How could someone who looked like an angel carry so many demons? It was like waking up from a dream only to realize I’d been sleeping next to the enemy. Every single thing he claimed he didn’t do—he did in secret. Everything he swore he hated—he indulged in behind closed doors. His entire life was a projection. A carefully crafted performance meant to appear righteous while hiding behaviors that were morally corrupt, sexually deviant, and socially unacceptable.
This may sound strange, but I used to fear the thought of going to his funeral one day and seeing women and children I’d never met—grieving the same man I thought I knew. Turns out, he’s still alive… but I’m the one grieving. Not for him, but for the life I thought I had. The truth is, I was a sister wife and didn’t even know it. There were stepchildren I never met. Lovers I never knew I was sharing him with. He had full access to my truth—my secrets, my vulnerability, my story—but I had no access to the truth behind the lies he fed me.
With every new revelation, the betrayal cut deeper. I wasn’t just deceived—I was exposed, exploited, humiliated, violated, and left emotionally stripped by someone who held the keys to my most personal details: my social security number, my health records, my passwords, my bank accounts, my trust, my love, my body, our home.
Let this be your warning: beware of shapeshifting trickster spirits—those who wear human faces but move with deceptive energy. They don’t just lie; they embody illusion. These individuals are spiritual decoys sent to confuse your intuition, feed off your light, and derail your purpose. And they don’t just show up as lovers. Sometimes, they arrive disguised as friends, family members, mentors, or people you deeply believe you can trust. Their charm is calculated, their presence persuasive—but their intentions are rarely pure.
Vet people thoroughly before giving them access to your life—or your children. Don’t fall in love with potential. See them clearly—not for who you wish they were, but for who they consistently show you they are. Trust your inner knowing. These spirits may appear charming, successful, or even godly—but many are emotionally bankrupt, spiritually void, and morally dangerous. Pay attention to secrecy, family dynamics, addictions, inconsistencies, and patterns that repeat. Watch what they do, not just what they say. And please—if it feels too good to be true, it probably is.
