Synopsis
` It was a cool, breezy and stormy night. Rain came down in sheets, as a dark figure stood before a house. The house was pretty ordinary, white with blue shutters; it didn't have more than two bedrooms. It looked like a cozy little family home with flowers and shrubs lining the front lawn, and then the smell from the pellet stove smoke invaded his nostrils. He took a deep breath and pulled out an old, rusted compass from his black trench coat. It looked like it could have been from the 14th century, the small, brass disc was dented and the Victorian designs were faded. He studied it as it pointed east, towards the small house. He looked the house over carefully, looking for the best entrance, before proceeding towards the side to gaze into the window. Inside you can see the small kitchen; the brand new, all black appliances off set the linoleum floor. Cabinets filled almost every wall of the small space that made it look more crowded than it should have been. The kitchen opened to a larger room which seemed to be used as a living room and a dining room all at once. The whole house looked crowded, with the furniture in the living room all touching except for a small gap to walk through and the dining room was so close to the sofa, it could have been sitting on it. He stepped back into the shadows as he watched a young couple enter the kitchen. The wife was tall and slender, had strawberry blond hair formed around her face accenting her jaw-line and her deep blue eyes stopped your heart as you got lost in them. Her fair complexion was silky and complimented her soft face.

Prologue
"Will you marry me, Hikari?" Taehyung abruptly held my wrist and turned me around, he then brought out a gleaming tiny box from his pocket as he got down on one knee. My eyes widened on realization, I was overwhelmed with his sudden actions, I took a deep breath, it almost felt like I couldn't breathe, I couldn't stop smiling, it felt as though there was nothing greater than this, nothing more beautiful that could ever happen than this particular moment right now. I looked at him, he was equally anxious as I was, he was anticipating an answer whilst his eyes sparkled with so many emotions I couldn't point one out, he seemed happy now more than ever, he seemed excited now than he ever was, he seemed in love now than I ever was.
The wedding proposal is a moment each of us cast in gold into our memories. Time stood still, breath held, until that soulful yes binds us together for all eternity. The ring was Celtic, the strands of the trinity making the eternal knot.
The crowd went wild, most of them being fan crowd, I could hear the sound of flashing lights and fluttering cameras, of girls shouting some being joyous others envious.
I paid them no attention, I could barely hear anything else other than my own deep inhales and exhales, I couldn't see anything else than him in front of me, patiently waiting for my answer with the biggest smile glued to his face.
When I see him, it's as if space and time become the finest point imaginable, as if time collapses into one tiny speck and explodes at light speed. It's as if my universe begins and ends with him. I could run forever, search forever, but in the end, every path leads right back to his heart and soul. I love him, always. I could finally leave all of it behind and be with him. Start a family, travel the world, but most importantly be with him forever.
"YES!-" Right when I was about to agree to entangle myself in this beautiful everlasting bond and be his forever and ever, I noticed. I noticed that we weren't alone, they were here, Black suits and that horrendous tattoos engraved on their filthy skins. With their guns pointing at all the seven members from a distance. A chill went down my spine as my eyes met Oikawa's and he shook his head in denial. I was scared, no, I was petrified, I knew one wrong step, one wrong word and I'd lose them forever. I couldn't put them in danger.
Just when I thought life could be easy.
"I can't, I'm Sorry, Taehyung"
I spoke hesitantly and ran away from the booing perplexed crowd. I didn't look back, I couldn't, I just ran away as fast as my feet could carry me.
_____________________________________________
Rain poured down from the sky mixing up with my tears. How I wished things could've been better. Much better than this, simpler than this.
"I have lived long enough to know that what we share I can't replicate with another. This love, this feeling, is just you and me. I could travel the world and the seven seas; I'd still have to come right back here if I wanted true love. It's not that nobody else wants me, or you, but that we were born to spark and run the same course. We are the protectors of one another, confidents and true friends. The trust I give you, that you give me, is what keeps us safe in this world, in this life. So whether this heart beats another day or another hundred years - it is yours. And I'm SORRY, for everything, I'm sorry things turned out the way it did!"
I wrote on a small piece of paper and dropped it in his mailbox.
One last glance at their house.
One last view of where I could've been.
One last smile to the place which I could've called 'Home'.
"GOODBYE," I murmured on the verge of tears. I Post-hastily turned and ran to my car, I closed the door behind me and told my driver to take me to the airport.
Just as soon as I sat at my seat, I knew I couldn't take it anymore, I burst into tears. The pain was excruciating, the sort of pain you can't eradicate simply because you want to, because this pain is there to stay and there's nothing you can do about it.
I couldn't help it.
I lost him. I lost them.
I lost everything.
The petrichor which had always seemed the most gratifying to me, today appeared seamlessly irksome.
You'll always live on in my Heart. You all will. I hope you forgive me.

Vexed Chapter 39
Darius woke up the next morning dreading getting out of bed. He rubbed his tired, almond eyes and rolled over to hit the snooze button. As he turned back over he was startled by a loud banging on the door. It was time…He jumped out of bed as fast as he could and threw on the clothes from the floor. The banging continued for the next five minutes until he got to the door, he thought as though it would never stop.‘Maybe he gave up and left?’ He thought to himself as he glanced through the peep hole. A tall man stood waiting. His crisp blond hair gave away quickly that it was Haans who was waiting. ‘He must have sensed me.’ He said to himself as he watched Haans impatiently sway side to side.“I know you’re there Darius. Quit stalling.” He said calmly.Darius opened the door hesitantly and let him in.Haans feverishly paced the floor in front of Darius in what seemed like an eternity as he described the conditions before signing the contract. He had only agreed to take on the assignme

Months have gone by without a hitch. After sending Liam to live with my father while I sort through this mess I’ve been bouncing from city to city in search for clues. Afraid to get to close to anyone I’ve kept a low profile. There hasn’t been any activity from the supernatural throughout the entire northeastern coastline, so I set my sights to the south where an unexplained string of phenomena have been recently occurring.It’s too much of a coincidence for two or three tragedies to strike off the coast of North Myrtle Beach. However, eight tragedies in total have cursed a 200 mile radius of the city. From unexpected fires to pile ups on I95. Normal people would see this as a string of unfortunate luck for the area but I feel this has a more sinister cause…The crisp wind blew through the palm trees with the faint smell of the ocean sifting through the window.Darius had just sat down for his morning cup of coffee as he fumbled through his paperwork for the day. His brows furrowed as

Pulling back the sleeping bag the mysterious occupant began to cough violently and thrash about. In an instant David leapt from the cloth as though it had been on fire. His torn clothes revealed the scars from his torturous ordeal so I quickly jumped to my feet and rushed him into the house.Though I had only been gone for a few days, the house felt as if it were abandoned for years. The musty scent of Liam’s last dinner had wafted through the kitchen reminding me of his holiday with friends. A soft light was all that shown through the blinds which gave way to the thin lair of dust on the television. Walking through the house for the first time since the ordeal felt like our bodies were stuck in slow motion. After I checked all the rooms and got a drink from the refrigerator, we retired to the couch.Once our bodies hit, dust flew into the air bringing us back to the reality at hand. This made the silence more deafening.David and I haven’t spoken a word since walking through the doo

I reminisced about the time I spent with David, Sylvia and Tony. We bonded so much in so little time it felt like they’ve been a part of my life for years. And to just lose them in a few short days was heart wrenching. I couldn’t bear the thought of them being gone. My eyes welled up with tears again and I didn’t care to hold them back. I sat on the ground and pulled my knees up to my chest. I started crying, it seemed like the only thing I could do at this point. I had to hide my secrets from everyone else. At least it was nice to be able to share things with someone. And now that someone was gone. I buried my head between my knees as I cried harder. My tears dripped down my nose, soaking me in the process. After a few hours, the fire died down low enough to walk through. My face hurt from all the crying I had done and my vision was a little blurred but I continued to try and find my way out of the cave anyway. It took me a very long time, and I got lost on several occasions along

I broke my legs free and hopped up to my feet on the table. Looking around me I was completely out numbered. Dimietry came up from behind me and tried to restrain me but I fought him off and threw him off my back onto the cavern floor. Jumping on top of him, I grabbed another finger nail and ripped

I lied there, coughing for a few moments as he waited out in pain. I didn’t know these things were anatomically correct or I would have thought of that earlier! I thought to myself grinning. He slowly got up off the ground and stood up. He stared me down for a minute as I contemplated my next move.

I fell to my knees in defeat and just stared over at the wall where Sylvia and Tony were chained. Tears began to well up in my eyes and I tried to hold them back. My breathing slowed down with my heart beat to the point where they could have stopped so easily. I couldn’t believe it; he just ended th

Dimietry grabbed Tony’s head again and lifted him up to a standing position. He glanced over to me and smiled before ripping off one of Tony’s legs. I screamed out at him trying to break free and fight him. Every piece of wire I snapped was replaced by a new one by the changelings watching me. “You
