"Where is it?" I whispered as we slipped inside. "Behind the books," Lisa said. She walked over to a huge wooden bookshelf. She touched the side of a leather book and pulled it.

I couldn’t be more stunned to see it disappear right into the book with no trace of his blood on it before he puts his hand down. The sound of a door creaking catches my attention, and at the same time, there is Garrett who moves back. I suddenly see the supposed shelf folding together as the creaking sound continues. Eventually, the shelf of books has been put aside to reveal a sort of door which had a polished color. I was amazed by the quality of the door which has a lot of inscriptions on it, making me wonder how much work was put into it to make it work. “There goes the second barrier. I have no idea how to crack the code and that is where you come in,” Garrett catches my attention with

The closest doors really do hold the biggest secrets. I drew the hood and covered my face with the dark robe I had found under the drawer. With each step, the words written on the leather-bound ledger filled with faded gold ink appeared in my head. Pack Registry: Contract Terminations and Fatalities. The weight of the book and the secrets it held seemed to be equal in their own context. They were both too heavy to be held and owned by one person. As I struggled to be unseen in the hallways, a young maid approached, her arms laden with fresh linens. She happened to be the shy maid who had that encouraging smile.

“You should be wise, think twice before you will ever do a single thing from now on, for the taboo that you three just commits is more than enough to produce the chain of cracks unto the walls of the future and to the succeeding loops.

She steps right and immediately inside as she cut in between that chronological time of the first loop and unto the hidden mark, where Jane finds the forbidden book and opens the gate of His, as her voice echoes reading the book title. “DEATH REINCARNATE.” Still into the invisible cage and stands unto the corner as she steps right into the middle before

My dad tries to get me to leave the book, but I tell him what the rest of the paragraph said. My dad moves the panel wider open and steps through, and then when I step over the threshold the panel closes behind me and seals itself back up. I jump a little bit, as a bunch of dim lights start to turn on by themselves. The dim lights lead down a small path to another door that seems like it’s locked when dad tries to open it. However as soon as I step closer with the book, 2 circles appear, 1 on the door and another on the back of the book.

I watched him in confusion and, finding I could not hear his thoughts, broke the silence. “Where are you going?” Zachary paused before answering.

I was to pretend this affair didn't exist and do nothing to stop them. Something wrapped its arm around my throat. I tore the contract into shreds. Nathaniel had kept the affair a secret for five whole years. That was something I didn't see coming. … It happened one night when I came home—three months had passed since our wedding.
