Jasper stood next to the small window and gazed outside while in complete silence and I am not going to lie. I don't wasn't feeling good about this whole situation." So, tell me what you want to talk about? or do you want to just stay silent and say nothing."He turned around to face me and his back was leaning towards the window and his muscled arms came across his chest as he looked me in the dead eyes. He took a breath and said, " Aisling, open your ears and eyes. Listen to me, carefully what I am about to tell you wasn't a joke or a lie."" What was it? don't create so much build-up and just tell me or is this part of your secret plan to kill me in absence of everyone."" Trust me! Aisling if I want to kill you. I could kill you that day and tear you apart in half and you won't be standing here and being so big mouth with me." he said in his cold voice trying to scare me and he was not wrong about it. I am a bit scared of him because I was alone with him and he can hurt me if he
Disbelief held me down inside my footsteps, making my body heavy but my heart wild. I watched Jasper in disbelief as he turned around to face the small window again.He was looking for something out there and I found myself still in shock how could someone want to kill me? I didn't do anything wrong with anyone. And who could be that? Jasper wasn't going to tell me because he looked equally frightened as I am. But what was the reason for telling me this right now? when I can't do anything because I am chained up in this house by my aunt and my father." What was the reason for telling me? what do you want me to do? just wait for you to kill me." I asked him in frustration.He swirled to face me and said, " You need to leave tonight"" You can't even imagine How much I want to leave this place but I can't do that because my father doesn't want me back. He sent me to the aunt only to suffer which I am currently living in suffering, fear, and now in trauma."" Why would any father do tha
Jasper, if you had another option so, you can share it but if not then I think, my idea is much better."" Do I not make myself clear again? Or should I repeat for you to listen to me? Not only listen but to understand it clearly that we are not going to tell anyone." He said in his demanding tone, I am going to agree with him on everything. My life was on the line, not his life. I should be worried not him. Oh God, please just help me out.Jasper begin to leave and I stopped him by blocking his way with my silhouette and asked him, " Where are you going and leaving me alone?"" Did you not hear Emily? Your aunt is expecting us. And if you don't mind can you give me some space."" I forgot about it before you leave. I need to know do you have a plan for me? or if I am going to become the sacrificial lamb."" Just let me think about it! and until then keep your big mouth shut." He said and scrapped his shoulder to mine as he walk passed me.And I thought, his answer is no. He doesn't h
Go! Go! before she returns from my room." he gives me an order and I don't know why he thinks that I am going to take his order." Why don't you go first? and then me."He looks at me in a way that he will take no time to rip me apart and I was just scared the hell of him but what he did next was completely unexpected for me." Fine! I'll go first and you come down a few minutes after me so nobody could see us together."I nodded my head in agreement and not asked him too many questions because I can see he was getting irritated by my question.He turns around to face, I mean backward to step down on the old broken ladder which was saved according to Jasper and I highly doubt it. I hold the ladder for him so he could not fall. And I can't believe I am helping my killer.Step by step, he finally reaches down and looks up at me, and gives me a thumbs up.Exactly, just then after aunt Fiona stepped out of jaspers' room and see him standing at the bottom of the ladder, looking up." Jaspe
As I turn around to find Benny coming from downstairs when I caught up in hearing aunt I don't hear his footsteps. I give him the most awkward smile because I was so nervous that he might see me sneak on them." What are you doing?" he asked me." Who are you to ask me questions? Don't you remember we don't to each other?" I answer with a hint that I am annoyed by him and he moves toward me. Looking into my eyes like he is trying to find something in them." What are you doing standing outside of jasper's room? And don't lie to me."" I am not lying! and you are doing the same thing again with false accusations. And I was just calling him because my aunt call everyone. By the way, I can ask you the same question what are you doing in here?"" I came to call my brother but I guess, he had someone to care about him more than me." He said while smirking and which makes me extremely mad but I control my anger because I don't want my aunt to know that I am listening to them. I decide to le
When aunt left with Benny, Jasper walked towards me and he just grab me by my forearm and said, " Come on, Aisling you need to help me out."I was mortified by him and don't know where he wants to take me and kill me. I don't know whether should I trust him with my life or not but if he wants to kill me he could kill me in the attic he didn't do it which means he genuinely does not want to me or at the very least I can only hope for it.He gives me a nudge to move. And I took a breath and tried to stay optimistic. We both walked together to my only favorite place in this house...Everyone has a place where they go to escape all the pressures and worries of life. A place that makes them happy. There is always that one spot that can soothe all your problems and troubles in times of stress. For some, the woods, the beach, or the park is the place to go. For me, it is simpler. I go to the library to cure all my problems to calm down and feel happy. A library is a quiet place. Not church-q
reached out for the doorknob after I crawled out from underneath my covers, emerging like a butterfly from a cocoon, swinging my legs over the side of the bed. As my warm feet hit the cold floor, I got shivers that send chills up my spine. I shook off the chills and drag my weary body to the steep staircase. Ascending those dreadful stairs is a struggle.I cautiously looked down the stairs into the inky blackness below. Bitingmy lip, I started to make my waydown the stairs. The light switch is atthe bottom. I looked behind me, onelast peek of light before I carried ondescending the stairs into theunknown. I stepped down from stepto step cautiously. Each stepdragged me further into thedarkness and further away from thesafety of the light.I reached the bottom of the stairs. Iran my hands along the wall, myfingers seeking the light switch. Flick!Light... Reassurance. A quick fewstrides across to the door. I hastilybolted the door. I turned to the right,facing the open wi
Benny, what are you doing?" I asked him and was scared of him. My whole body was trembling because of the fear.I was barely standing on my feet and Benny chuckled like it was amusing for him to see me in fear." You are too dumb Aisling, you still don't understand why we both are here?"" Don't talk into riddles, Benny. Come to the point."" Well, I am finishing the job that my brother Jasper left midway but don't worry I will make it easy for you and you will not feel any pain. "My hands trembled, so I took a deep drag to calm my frayed nerves. I just wanted to forget that terrible sight, but questions multiplied in my mind as the smoke furled.I can see from the corner of my eye that the water was boiling in the pot. I thought of an idea." Any last wishes?"" Why you are doing this? I didn't do anything. I beg of you that please have mercy "I begin to cry in front of him to distract him as I took a step backward." poor, Aisling! Are you afraid of death?" please Benny, I am beg
