ROOM OF THE DEAD BRIDES The hidden door
Clara pressed herself against the cold floor, her whole body was shaking. Then, outside the door, the scratching continued.Clara was so scared that she held her breath, she was afraid that the person outside would hear her breathing.“Clara.”Adrain called again, his voice was soft and calm, but it was scarier than shouting. Tears filled her eyes when she remembered the strange woman who told her to find the hidden door before midnight.Clara looked around the dark room and her heart sank.“How am I supposed to find a door,” she whispered.“And my hands are tied.”For a few seconds, she kept quiet and was just observing the room in the dark, then she noticed something near the wall.A small metal hook was sticking out of the floor, it was rusty and sharp.Clara looked at it and a tiny bit of hope filled her chest, maybe she could use it.She dragged herself towards it slowly, the floor was rough, but she kept on moving.Outside the room, she heard footsteps, slow footsteps as if som
ROOM OF THE DEAD BRIDES The ghost
The men dragged Clara through the hallway, she screamed and begged, but no one listened.The beautiful mansion was no longer beautiful to her,everything felt evil.As they passed the paintings, Clara looked at them again, and this time she noticed something terrifying: the women in the painting looked scared; they were no longer sad; they looked as if they were begging for help, as if they knew something terrible was about to happen.“No…..” Clara whispered.She screamed harder, the men kept on dragging her till they reached the black door, the same door she had asked Adrain about before, the same door covered with huge locks.One by one they opened the door.CLANK!!CLANK!!CLANK!!The sound echoed through the hallway.The door opened slowly, and a terrible smell rushed out.The darkness inside the room seems endless.“NO!!!”Clara fought harder.“Please don’t put me in here!”The men ignored her, and dragged her inside.The room was so big and completely dark that she couldn’t see a
ROOM OF THE DEAD BRIDES Out of curiosity
Adrain was near the entrance, his hands in his pockets, watching Clara slowly.Clara smiled immediately.All her fear disappeared.“Adrain.”Adrain smiled a little.“You came?”“Of course I came.”She rushed towards him, but something felt so different. When she reached him, he didn’t even hug her or touch her; he was just staring at her quietly, like he was studying her. And the silence felt so uncomfortable, then Adrain finally turned around, “Come inside.”**The mansion was so beautiful, a crystal light hung from the ceiling, and the floor shone like a mirror. Everything looked so expensive, but the house was feeling empty, so empty, there were no workers, no maid, just Adrain.“This place is beautiful,” Clara said.“It is.”“Do you live here?” “Sometimes.”Clara laughed. “And what does that mean?”Adrain kept staring at her then he smiled.“A man like me owns many things.”The way he said it sent cold shivers down her spine but she ignored it.She ignored any uncomfortable feel

It was morning already, and Clara could not even stop herself from smiling; she had been smiling every time she spoke to Adrian.She just lay on her bed staring at the ceiling, her heart was feeling so light, everything just seemed to be perfect.She kept thinking about the night she spent with Adrain, the fancy hotel, the money, and the attention that Adrain gave her.She smiled, two hundred thousand naira for just one night.What if she became Adrian’s real girlfriend?What if he chooses her over Elena?And she would live in a huge mansion, drive expensive cars and maybe one day she would become Mrs. Adrain vale.Those thoughts alone made her so happy.“Elena never had a chance,” she whispered.Just then, her phone buzzed..It was a message from Adrian and she quickly opened it.Tell Elena You’re going on a date with your boyfriend tonight.Clara frowned at first because that was all no “hello” no sweet message. Just instructions and it felt strange, but after a few moments, she s

Elena sat on the bed, holding her phone tightly, her hand was shaking so badly.Adrian and Clara inside a hotel room together?Tears filled her eyes again.“No!!!” Elena whispered.“This can’t be true.”Her chest was beating so fast she could hear it.She called Clara quickly, the phone rang three times and there was no answer.Elena stood up from her bed and started walking around the room nervously.“Pick up… Clara please pick up.”Tears kept rolling down her face.Her mind kept thinking about the picture again and again.The white bed, Adrain, and Clara sitting there and everything looked so real.“No… Clara can’t do this to me, I trust her.”Suddenly, her phone started ringing.Clara was calling back. Elena answered immediately.“WHERE WERE YOU LAST NIGHT?!”Clara was quiet for a few seconds.“Elena?”“ANSWER ME!”Clara pretended to sound confused.“What are you talking about?”Elena’s voice was breaking as she cried.“I saw a picture.”“What picture?”“You and Adrian in a hotel r

The next morning, Clara woke up smiling.She rolled on her bed happily while thinking about her last night with Adrain.Adrain was just so perfect, the way he touched me, his voice, and the way he looked at me, the way he handed over the money to her like it was nothing.“A whole two hundred thousand naira.” Clara hugged her pillow tightly as she smiled.Suddenly, her phone started ringing.The smile on her face disappeared the moment she saw it was Elena’s Call.She slowly carried her phone and picked up the call.Clara cleared her throat and answered sweetly. “Babbyyyy.”The moment Elena started speaking Clara noticed something was wrong.“Elena?”Elena’s voice sounded so weak and tired.“Clara…..”“What happened?” Clara asked.Elena was quiet for some seconds.Then finally—Adrain isn’t answering my calls.Clara’s heart jumped with excitement.“He's ignoring her,” she whispered to herself.Clara quickly acted worried and surprised.“What?”“I’ve been calling him since last night
