Chapter 8

작가: Scallion Muse
With her ear pressed against the door, my mother-in-law frowned in confusion. "What are they even saying in there? I can’t hear a thing."

My father-in-law shook his head as well, his expression grave. "Hurry up and call the police again. Tell them to come faster. If something happens to our son, that won’t be good."

A flash of malice flickered in her eyes. "Fine. I’ll call right now."

Click.

The door opened.

She froze mid-motion with her phone, then awkwardly stepped back with a forced smil

  • The Death Loop   Chapter 9

    My mother-in-law looked a little embarrassed and nudged Emmett."Alright, since you’ve said that, I’ll explain things to the officers."Knock. Knock.The sudden sound made everyone jump.She immediately pushed Emmett back. "Emmett, go settle your wife. I’ll handle the police."When the door opened, two officers stood there, faces serious."Hello. Who made the report?"She quickly stepped forward, offering them cigarettes with a flattering smile. "Officers, I’m so sorry to trouble you this late. It was just a family matter. It’s already been resolved."The younger officer frowned slightly. "You reported seeing a dangerous animal. Are you filing a false report?"Her expression stiffened, and she tried to smooth things over, but I stepped forward first, extending my wrists."I’m the werewolf. Please arrest me."The two officers looked me up and down, doubt obvious in their eyes. "Werewolf? Do you have some kind of mental condition?"I nodded. "Possibly."Then I turned to Emme

"That was quick… Finished talking already?"Emmett nodded expressionlessly, then walked over and sat on the couch, staring blankly ahead.I stayed in the bedroom with my parents, not coming out.The strange atmosphere made her restless. She couldn’t hold back and stepped forward to pry."Son, what did that monster say to you? You look like you’ve lost your soul. You’re the only heir of this family. You can’t let anything happen to you!"Emmett’s tone shifted completely from his usual obe

    "What? Mom! How could you do this?!" Emmett looked utterly devastated, as if he couldn’t understand her betrayal. "India is family! How can you treat her like this?! Call the police back. Cancel it!"His eyes were bloodshot, like a wild animal, as he lunged for her phone.However, she stiffened her neck and stuffed the phone into her chest. "Family? We’re human. She’s a monster! What kind of family is that?!"I spit on you! You witch, just go to hell already! Stop dragging my son down with you!"Emmett was helpless. He spun in place, panic written all over him. Then he looked at me, eyes pleading, almost childlike. "What do we do, honey? I don’t want to lose you…"I stayed silent for a moment. Then I stepped forward, helping my pale, shaken parents to their feet, guiding them into the bedroom.After that, I walked over to Emmett. Without looking at him, I lowered my head and took his hand, leading him inside.Seeing how calm I was, my mother-in-law’s face turned pale. She rememb

    I wiped away my tears and picked up the phone from the ground, my hands trembling.The woman’s face reflected clearly on the screen.Every feature was identical to mine, even the small tear-shaped mole at the corner of her eye.The only difference was her gaze.Cold. Violent.The whites of her eyes nearly swallowed her pupils whole. Anyone who saw that would think "monster".My legs gave out, and I collapsed onto the floor. My heart sank to the very bottom.The urge I had felt earlier—to lick the bird’s blood. The violent, killing impulse. Fresh blood should have been revolting. I should’ve gagged.Yet I thought it was sweet. I even wanted more.I had never even killed a chicken in my life. I’d grown up in comfort, happy and safe.How could I suddenly become like this? It was as if I had turned into someone else entirely.Did I die in my sleep because I turned into a werewolf and got hunted?My grip tightened around the metal edge of the phone, its sharp corner cutting into

    The video was dim all around, the camera shaking cautiously as it focused on a woman in the center.She was crouched in front of the refrigerator. A faint white light illuminated only a small patch of space.With her back to the camera, long black hair cascading down her back, she held something in both hands, devouring it in large, savage bites.As the person filming slowly moved closer, my eyes widened. The blood in my body seemed to freeze, cold sinking all the way into my bones.The woman had the same long hair as I, and she was wearing the same white silk nightgown.I swallowed hard, my voice trembling. "Turn up the volume. All the way."Emmett glanced at me with concern, but he did it anyway.As the volume rose, the freezer drawer slid open in the video. What the woman was chewing, half-hidden by her hair, came fully into view.Crunch. Crunch.The sound of chewing scraped against my nerves. My pupils shrank. Every hair on my body stood on end.It was a chunk of raw froz

    Emmett immediately spread his arms and blocked the doorway, fear etched across his face. "You can’t go."Before I could respond, his parents rushed forward and tried to pull him aside."Let her go! Let’s see if they can even find anything!""No!" he snapped. "If you don’t help me stop India, I’ll kill myself right now! I can’t lose her!"He quickly unlocked his phone and showed them something.Just one glance, and their faces turned pale. The way they looked at me changed. There was fear in their eyes.Then they noticed the blood covering the floor. Their bodies trembled, their voices lowering instinctively."Son, if you like her, that’s your business. But your father and I, we’re old. How are we supposed to stop her?"Emmett didn’t move. His gaze stayed locked on me, refusing to let me pass. "My in-laws will be here soon. Just help me hold her here. She absolutely cannot go to the hospital! I—I won’t do it! I still want to live a few more years!"Then Emmett said something th
