Chapter 9: KISSES, VOICES, AND PROMISES
I jumped out of bed, and Perry's head popped up under the covers as my ear-piercing scream echoed in the night. She instantly covered my mouth to stop any scream that threatened to come out.
"What the heck do you think you're doing under the covers, Perry?! MY GOD! You are going to be the death of me even before this stupid curse could get me!"
I felt like I did the ice bucket challenge, and every part of my body was shaking like crazy. It felt like the ice in my veins formed earlier out of fear suddenly melted and turned into lava.
"You are such a noisy roommate, Shyne. Did you forget that you passed out last night because of the sleeping pills, and you nearly begged me to sleep beside you so you won't be afraid? I only agreed because it saved me time and energy

"Shyne, what is the matter with you? We've called your name three times already. Are you alright?"I snapped out of my hallucination when Perry touched my arm a bit harder than expected. I felt like I was losing my mind, and I began to look straight at Brixton and Rex."I'm sorry, I was in deep thought, and I thought I saw an insect near my leg, so I just froze, but it was nothing."Perry saw right through me and gave me a look that told me we would discuss the scenario later when we got home. I always tried my best to change the subject and focus on the task at hand, which is separating Rex and Brixton."Why are the both of you so tense, Brixton? Seriously, you look like you don't even wanna try the white chocolate
The Haunted's Kiss of Regret and Repentance Chapter 11: TALKING TO HER DEMONS
"How does it feel to know the full extent of my love for you?" A man's voice whispered near my ear, but no matter how much I struggled, I couldn't move or open my eyes. "How does it feel to know that my promises were all true and that you could never escape me nor my love for you, Shyne?" My eyes snapped open to search for Rian, but it was pitch black. The chest that I bumped into was nowhere in sight, and I couldn't feel it either. "Are you looking for me, my love? I'm not in front of you, I'm not beside you, nor am I behind you. Look up and look at me, Shyne" I saw Rian hanging with his tongue sticking out long enough to be terrifying like a demon's tongue. His eyes were closed, and his neck was bloody as if the rope was eating his flesh.
The Haunted's Kiss of Regret and Repentance Chapter 12: RELIVING HIS TOUCH
"Hey sweetheart, did you miss me, my love?"I screamed, but my voice was stuck in my throat, and I felt a chill run up my spine as Rian walked closer to me. This time, I clearly saw the damage that the rope did to his neck. The flesh was bleeding, and it turned both purple and red.This time, I heard footsteps running in my direction, and I felt relieved when I realized that those footsteps were probably Perry and Kath's. They must have felt that something was wrong or that they heard Rian's voice."Now that you have her, Rian, make sure she doesn't get away from you this time. It will be a pity if you have to sacrifice more for her to be yours."The voice was demonic as if it was multiple men with hoarse voic
The Haunted's Kiss of Regret and Repentance Chapter 13: WHAT IFS AND WHY NOTS
The car we rode in was now outside the mansion, and I felt my nerve going haywire. We waited for someone to open the gate, and I saw the look of shock on everyone’s faces as I began to get out of the car with multiple bags as if I was staying for more than two days.I realized that for almost four years, after I changed schools, that I hardly stayed long in our house. Even during the holiday, I celebrated them in our ancestral dwellings all around the country where my grandparents and other relatives lived. It was a rare sight to pack a bag, knowing I would be staying here longer than two days.The people inside the house greeted me respectfully, and as I looked up at the mansion, it felt like I was entering a cage that I wasn’t getting out of. Izzy ran towards me as I was walking up the steps

"Shyne, hey, you have to wake up, sis. Mom and dad are here, and they want to talk to you before dinner starts."I realized that I had fallen asleep while checking out my old stuff, and Izzy was now back and shaking me."Okay, okay, I'm up. Sheesh, I thought there was an earthquake with the way you shook me. You could have just tapped my arms or cheeks gently."I had bed hair, and as my eyes scanned my bed, I saw that I moved a lot in my sleep. Based on my dream, it wasn't a surprise that the bed was a mess."Well, forgive me, little miss sleeping beauty. I was too busy screaming your name outside your room to get your attention. Since you never bothered to wake up and respond, I already assumed I had the right to w
The Haunted's Kiss of Regret and Repentance Chapter 15: FAMILY?
"I know that you told mom you were going to stay here for a week or so, but I can't believe that you decided to go home in the middle of the school year. Are you seriously telling me that you are risking your studies for relaxation?"My brother Alister was never close with me, and he and Izzy became much closer over the years. I disappeared as the eldest to study in another city a few hours away from home, and I knew he hated my guts for leaving the responsibility to him."Wow, you haven't seen me and spent time with me for months, and this is the welcome greeting that you give me? Don't you have a softer side for your sister, Alister?"I saw my brother compose himself, and the well-trained Alister De Leon was now present before me. He was definitel

“Come home by tomorrow. I saw a note from Rian in one of your weird time capsule boxes. I think I know how you can fully, or at least partially get rid of your undead stalker." Izzy read Perry’s text aloud as I was waiting for her to help me decide what to do. "I can't go home tomorrow because I promised mom and dad that I would go to church with you and Alister." "Okay, sis, we are going to figure this out. However, right now, I need to sleep to figure something out properly. The Church has three services, so you don't have to worry about being late." I relaxed a little at Izzy's nonchalant reaction. I decided to just decide in the morning and message Perry when I do. "Hey, Izzy? I never thank you enough fo
The Haunted's Kiss of Regret and Repentance Chapter 17: VICTIMIZING
"Shyne, snap out of it! Hey, it's okay, I'm right here, Shyne. Shhh, it's alright." Perry was rocking me back and forth as I had a panic attack. I was shaking as I closed my eyes and covered my ears. "Shyne, I'm here, cousin. Don't worry, you're alright. Everything is going to be alright, just relax, Shyne." I was still shaking badly as Perry wrapped her arms around my body, and her legs were entangled with mine. She exerted enough force to stop a little of my thrashing, and we both fell on the floor. "I-I can't do this anymore, Perry. I can't live every day of my life pretending that being haunted by my ex isn't affecting me as much as it really does."
