You’re just the latest toy.” “The Ghost?” I laughed it off, but my voice sounded shaky even to me. “Sounds like some movie legend bullshit.”

Leah looked around the cracked pavement, but in her mind she began to see what he saw — classrooms, computer labs, bright murals, laughter replacing silence. Leah (whispering): “Jason, you’re building a legacy.” He smiled faintly. Jason: “Not mine. Ours.” As the sun dipped low, Leah and Jason lingered in the lot, still holding hands.

Leah’s chest tightened. Leah: “Ghost…?”

I thought she was safe. She had no idea how wrong she was. He started the car and pulled away from the curb, slow and careful. No need to rush. He had time. And Maya Reeves was about to learn that some ghosts don't stay buried. Some come back to collect what they're owed.

The "New Blood Reign" wasn't a title we had stolen; it was a debt we were paying in advance to the dark.

With a click, the clasp came undone, and the pendant fell to the floor. In a flash, Zoe’s eyes widened. She grabbed my collar like a madwoman. “Y-You… You didn’t switch fates? You lied to me?!” I looked at her in surprise. “What are you talking about?” Miles suddenly exclaimed, “Ow, Maisie. My neck feels itchy.” He pulled down his collar, exposing his collarbone, and clearly revealed who was actually wearing the demonic fate-swapping lock.

Feeling surprised and overwhelmed, she carefully cleaned her nose and decided it was best to go home. Rex, concerned about her well-being, felt the need to speak with her. However, Natasha took some pain relief pills and drifted off to bed. The next morning, she abruptly woke up from a nightmare about her mother's cause of death. She vividly remembered her mother slipping on the staircase when she was only nine years old, resulting in her sudden demise.
