Haunt Your Heart Out Novels & Stories

--- **The Howling** The cabin explodes. Not in fire-in *sound*. A howl older than the Veil, older than the Silence, erupts from the locket's remains. The storm answers, the Song answers, the static answers. The Silence screams. The girl watches, her form dissolving. *"Clever. You hid a *heart* in the memory."* Kael's ghost grins. *"Damn right."* The howl intensifies, shredding the Silence, the ash, the false sky. Eden grips my hand as the world dissolves.

Even printing documents meant running hundreds of yards to a copy shop outside the building. The torment from both lives gnawed at my nerves until I felt I was about to be driven mad by this absurd, malicious hostility. At last, the workday ended. The new fingerprint scanner had been installed. The moment it was time to clock out, I rushed over. This felt like my only hope.

I said in a high-pitched voice “I'm.. the new secretary” Why am I stuttering “The new secretary in my bedroom,” he said in disgust “Sorry I was trying to find your study room,I didn’t mean to invade your privacy.” “Get out.

But then, who needs a glass to get drunk? A gulp after another, I downed the three bottles till I got drunk and slept off right on the tiles...

"Hello, beautiful you missed me"...
