The Shadow Pact: Bound to the Demon Chapter 22 - Peace Through a Bottle
The air in Jamie’s hospital ward was stagnant, a thick soup of antiseptic and the low frequency hum of machines that felt like they were vibrating inside Noah’s teeth.Jamie looked less like a person and more like a collection of shadows held together by translucent skin.Noah stood at the foot of the bed, his face a mask of cold, jagged glass. He didn’t look at Kael, who was leaning against the wall, his breathing ragged and shallow. Noah’s voice, when it came, was a sharp, clinical command that severed the silence.“Heal him”Kael let a low, warning hiss, his eyes flickering with a dull, dying violet light. “You are asking for a tethering of life, Noah. It’s not something I can randomly do. This is not a simple mending of flesh. If I pull too much from the void while I am this depleted, I will fray. My essence will scatter”.“Do it” Noah repeated. He didn’t offer a plea; he offered an ultimatum. He didn’t care about Kael’s ‘fraying’, he only cared about the steady, rhythmic beep of
The Shadow Pact: Bound to the Demon Chapter 21 - The Architecture of Decay
Duke leaned on the wall outside the morgue, dragging on the cigarette dangling from his lips, eyes half lidded as he exhaled slowly, as if trying to push the weight of the night out with the smoke that curled into the cold air.He replayed his memories from the alley a few nights ago and the hospital when he and Mitch first met Noah Ware trying to find a link between the two events and that of today.Noah ware and his roommate had successfully become people of interest in this case but statement differences won’t necessarily make them the main suspects as there’s no known motive or evidence that points to murder.Wait what is his roommate’s name again?“You do know that you are not allowed to smoke around here right?” Tom spoke up, stepping out of the building.Duke turned to him and smiled apologetically before stubbing out the cigarette with his foot “Sorry, are you starting the autopsy? Let’s go in then.”The morgue was a sanctuary of silence, a stark, clinical vault where the only

“Dispatch we’ve got a confirmed DOA at a bar. Requesting backup”The rain lashed against the window of Duke’s car. The wipers fighting a losing battle against the downpour. Each rain drop sounded like stones were being thrown at his window, threatening to break through the windows.Duke sat inside the car and stared blankly out the windshield, his grip tightening and weakening around the steering wheel his knuckles turning pale white.The radio crackled again, the static biting through the quiet gloom of the patrol car. Duke started at the dashboard but didn’t answer the dispatcher immediately.He couldn’t.Inside the small, confined space of the cruiser, the ghost f his argument with Mitch was still screaming at him, the guilt he tried to bury growing each passing second. Duke exhaled, the sound shuddering in the cold air. He wanted to scream. He wanted to drive the car into a wall, or better yet, drive until the city lights were just tiny specks in the rearview mirror.But then,
The Shadow Pact: Bound to the Demon Chapter 19 - Bodies, Bodies, Bodies
It was a canopy of sounds around Noah, from the sound of the door being broken from its hinges to the angry shouts and reprimands of the staffs of the bar to the screams filled with fear and finally the sirens and noise brought by the law enforcement officers. It was all a blur to Noah, the bustle reduced to background noise as his mind ran in circles.I saw him. But I saw him. It can’t be, he was alive just now.Over and over again, his brain sang it like a mantra. Trying to preserve his sanity yet at the same time doing exactly what it sought to prevent.“Hello? Are you still with me?” A police man snapped his fingers repeatedly in front of Noah’s face and brought him back from the sink hole of his thoughts.The night had become colder and because of the open door, the cold seeped in causing Noah to tremble. The journalist had begun to arrive, the snap of their cameras forming a perfect harmony with that of the examiners on site.One of the detectives on site cursed upon seeing the
The Shadow Pact: Bound to the Demon Chapter 18 - The Noise Behind the Static
“That’s all for today” the lecturer announced signaling the end of the class.Noise erupted inside the lecture hall as students were either preparing to leave the lecture hall or were already skipping out the door. Noah wasn’t ready to leave yet, he wanted to wait for the hall to be empty so that he can try and talk to Kael. The silence bothered him more than he would like to admit, he missed what they had before and wanted it back. But Kael wouldn’t let him, as he was arranging his words Kael had already made his way to the door.Noah had no choice but to follow lest what happened in the previous class occur again. But that didn’t stop him from trying as they walked out.“Can we just-” Noah started, his voice, though echoing off the sterile concrete walls of the hallway, was getting drowned by the hustle and bustle of students around him. The speed Kael walked and constantly bumping into other students didn’t help one bit. Noah had to push through and run up to Kael before he spo
The Shadow Pact: Bound to the Demon Chapter 17 - Morality and Loyalty
"Good afternoon detective"Duke didn't even grunt in response, nothing felt good about the afternoon not the day.The afternoon sun cast a harsh glare on him, as if it wanted to burn away the part of him that chose Mitch over what was right. To strip him of every excuse he had left to justify Mitch's actions.He clenched and unclenched his hands as he walked up to his cruiser.The steering wheel of the cruiser felt like lead in Duke’s hands. He didn't start the engine. Instead, he sat in the dim, flickering light of the precinct parking lot, watching the heat rise up from the asphalt, the sunlight bouncing off cars into his eyes. He didn't know how long time had passed but all of a sudden it was drizzling. A poor miserable attempt to drive away the heat. It looked like tears on the face of a man who had forgotten how to cry.In the passenger seat sat a manila folder. It was thin, containing only a few grainy stills from a neighbour's Ring camera and a redacted dispatch report from t

The Shadow Pact: Bound to the Demon Chapter 7 - Visitors That We Do Not Remember
Kael's POVI stared at the door of the room Noah came back to enter after he bolted out of the room in embarrassment, muttering under his breath.Cute, it I'm being honest.The way he flares up like a porcupine when irritated, kinda makes me want to rile him up even more.I chuckled as I remember h
