The Lost Castle chapter 13 :Third tenant
The mafia don's eyebrow lifts.He looks genuinely amused.“You're dismissing me?”I point toward the door.“Yes. If you're not the mysterious third tenant, you're officially dismissed. Go.”He gives a tiny nod.“Understood.”He leaves without arguing.The two ghosts remain.I look at them.“And you two stay here. I may need witnesses.”They nod immediately.I turn toward the corridor leading to the sealed west wing.The atmosphere changes almost instantly.No dramatic music. No footsteps.Just that same strange pressure I felt in the tunnel—as if the castle itself is quietly telling me:Don't.I walk anyway.At the end of the corridor is an old wooden door.No lock.No handle.Just a brass plate engraved with a single word:WELCOMEI stare at it.“That's creepy.”The older ghost whispers behind you:“It wasn't there yesterday.”I turn around.Both ghosts look genuinely frightened.I look back at the door.Then slowly reach for it.Before I touch it—Knock. Knock. Knock.From the other
The Lost Castle Not another one
I had an excellent comeback: “I didn't know my castle had an illegal invader and I don’t mind the rest of factors , besides living people scare me that's why I prefer living with ghosts at least they wont cause u any legal trouble or use your property without consent”. The mafia don actually pauses at that. He looks toward the old walls, then back at me. “That's an unusually strong preference for ghosts.” I shrug. “Ghosts have been considerably more respectful of my property than the living so far.” From somewhere downstairs: “We heard that.” I call back: “Good.” The mafia don suppresses a laugh. Then he becomes serious. “For what it's worth, I understand your distinction. You didn't knowingly purchase a property with us here. We were already occupying part of it.” I nod. “Exactly. So either we establish boundaries, or you find somewhere else.” He considers that. Then: “Boundaries it is.” He extends his hand. “You own the castle. We stay within
The Lost Castle Another contract
A few minutes later, I m sitting in the castle's drawing room with an iced coffee. He sits opposite me, alone. No guards. No mysterious woman. No dramatic entourage. I place my cup down. “Okay. Ground rules.” He nods. I start counting on my fingers. “First: my bedroom and private living areas are completely off-limits. Nobody enters without my permission.” “Agreed.” “Second: no guards wandering around upstairs looking intimidating.” “Agreed.” “Third: I don't want random people appearing in corridors at night.” “Reasonable.” “Fourth: if you're continuing your business here, I don't want to know anything about it unless it affects my property or my safety.” He nods. “Agreed.” I lean back. “And fifth: if I want to explore my own castle, nobody follows me around like I'm a criminal suspect.” He studies you for a moment. Then says: “Agreed.” I blink. “That was surprisingly easy.” He smiles. “You came upstairs prepared for an argument.” “Obviously.” “And instead of
The Lost Castle chapter 10 :Arrangement
The man listens without interrupting. I finish. Silence. Then he looks at the woman. “She has a point.” The woman looks horrified. “Sir—” He raises one hand. “No. She bought the castle. She wants her share. She doesn't want involvement in our business.” He looks back at you. “That's reasonable.” I nod. “Excellent. Send the money. Don't send me spreadsheets. I already told you I hate maths.” For the first time, the terrifying seven-foot mafia don actually smiles. “I have an accountant.” “Obviously.” I turn around and start walking back toward the staircase. He calls after ME: “One more thing.” I stop. “If you ever see anything suspicious in the castle, don't investigate it yourself.” I turn my head. “Why?” He pauses. “Because some things down here are not mine.” I stare at him. He adds: “And the ghosts won't be able to protect you from them.” I blink. Then point toward the staircase. “Noted. I'm going upstairs. I need coffee,
The Lost Castle Strangers in my own home
“Ohh please tell me its some underworld mafia center don , vampire, werewolf 7 feet tall who has been running his underworld business using this haunted house as a cover but he doesn't know my superpower that I can see and talk to ghosts” I said excitedly. The darkness goes completely silent. Then a woman's voice says: “...You watch too many dramas.” I grin. “That's not a no.” A soft laugh echoes through the tunnel. My phone flashlight suddenly turns back on. And there she is. Not a vampire. Not a werewolf. Not a seven-foot mafia don. A woman in a black suit, standing barefoot in the tunnel. She looks completely alive. Behind her are six people, all armed and dressed like they belong to an extremely expensive criminal organization. I stare at them. Then glance behind yourself. “Okay. So… definitely not ghosts.” The woman smiles. “No. We're the people who have been using this castle for the last forty years.” I blink. “You've been living in
The Lost Castle Exploring the secrets
“And you two have been living here for centuries and never thought to investigate?” The younger ghost shrugs. “We are dead. We have priorities.” Me: “Apparently cleaning wasn't one of them.” Then I remember something. “And the two living tenants?” The older ghost points toward the east wing. “They've been there for years.” Me: “And what exactly are they doing?” He hesitates. “That's the interesting part.” “I m done with riddles you two hold this broom and get me my phone so I can turn on torch and see who's living at my property for free while you two are gonna organize the record room and wine cellar date wise order.” I said angrily. The two ghosts stare at me. Then at the broom. Then at each other. The younger one whispers: “She's serious.” The older one sighs, takes the broom, and mutters: “I preferred her when she was asleep.” I point toward the staircase. “Phone. Now.” A few seconds later, my phone floats down the stairs and lands n
