Eric
The sun was the only light strong enough to wake me. Not when I was sleeping close to Maisy. Nothing happened between us last night since I was still dressed but what mattered most was I meant a lot to Maisy.
The shouts of ecstasy outside got me off the bed. Throwing away the blinds, I saw villagers dancing their hearts away to the seductive beats of drums. What exactly was happ
MaisyThe carriage ride to grandfathers was an awkward one, Considering I ended up with Sara, Emilia, and Anthony. It was either that or I ended up with Eric.I turned behind me to have a peek at the carriage behind ours. It was too dark to see it but my mind wouldn't be at ease. I couldn't help but wonder what was happening in there.
Maisy"Mr Quinn has really outdone himself this time." Emilia said to Sara as they admired the decor of the hall.I set my eyes on the swinging chandeliers in an effort to ignore the stares of the servants.

Each agonizing cry reminding me of the first time I met Eric. I watched him shrink, his bones tearing out of his skin. He was changing...into something different, Something inhuman.

MaisyThings don't make sense when you are face to face with the dead. Two of them. Of all the secrets revealed today, The realization that I was one of them hit harder than any pain I could ever feel. I was a monster. It didn't look real and I definitely didn't want it to feel real but here it was, I could see ghosts."What do they want in return Maisy?" Eric's trembling voice echoe
EricIt had to be a lie. Maybe just a hallucination. There was no way, No f*cking way Anthony was a killer. It was just unbelievable. Still, my mind couldn't get Maisy's words out of my mind. Anthony was the family's white sheep. The sacrificial lamb who would do anything to please his blood.I was greeted at th
Father NicholasFinding a dead body in the middle of nowhere would a hurdle on normal days but with the fire that burned inside, This was no normal night. The hurricane lamp flickered as the strength of the wind intensified threatening to leave me in darkness if I didn't put an end to this insanity.The gods didn't even put an effort, not with their grandmaster by my side.
