“Please pick up Andy, we need to talk, I'm sorry you had to find out this way. “Please call me back. I'm worried about you, you aren’t in your house, I love you, I’m sorry. Please call me back. I ignored Sophie's messages and proceeded to call Maddy, who has been trying to reach me, I dialled her number and she picked it up almost immediately. “Where have you been Andy, I have been calling you? Where are you?” “I’m sorry Maddy, I was sleeping, is there any report about Gem.” “Gem was found, she was admitted in the same hospital as mum, she was overdosed on cocaine.

Each of us has grown and evolved, embracing our passions and striving for personal fulfillment. "I can't believe how far we've come," I say, my voice filled with gratitude. "We've faced hardships, but we've also experienced immense joy. Together, we've built a support system that has carried us through it all." Sarah raises her glass, a glimmer of pride in her eyes. "To friendship, resilience, and creating our own family." We clink our glasses together, savoring the moment. The flames dance before us, casting flickering shadows on our faces, reminding us of the beauty that can arise from the darkest of times.

“Jeremy, the results are out. The doctor said that the baby is very healthy. In a few months, the baby will be able to meet us. “I’m going to check on Alania later. I have a feeling that she might have discovered something. I’ll test the waters while no one is around.” As she spoke, her expression turned ruthless. She looked around. Once she was certain no one was in the area, she whispered, “We’ve already killed two people. We can kill another one.” I was shocked. What did Joy mean by that? They already killed two people? A horrifying thought rose in my head, but I did not want to believe it. When my mind finally returned to the present, Joy had already left. I leaned against the wall listl

Aunt Lorreta offered me a sit beside her, asked me how's being with Marco and I just smiled at her and tell that everything is alright. "How's life here with Marco? Eila?" she smiled at me while holding my hands "We are actually good Auntie Lorreta, there's sometimes that we fight for some misunderstanding but it was actually not that bad." I answered back with a nervousness in my voice. I was actually not that comfortable with Auntie Loretta even though that she is too kind, I think maybe it was just new to me to talked to someones mom since I already lost mine few years back. " That's good, We know that it was just a typical problems in a relationship, your Uncle and I experienced that a l

The moment the door opened, everyone in the living room instinctively covered their noses and mouths. Even Mom, who was always so domineering, gagged at the smell. Dad froze in the doorway. He stood frozen in place like a statue. I followed his line of sight and saw myself curled up on the floor. Between the drugs and alcohol, combined with the summer heat, my body had swollen and turned black beyond recognition. The pool of dried blood at the corner of my mouth split my face in two. There was still something tightly wedged inside my fist.

I walk over to the bed and set the box down. "What's that?" Brittany walks over to me looking over my shoulder as I open the box. I flip open the lid of the box and look at the contents. It contained sage, holy water, white candles, incense sticks, and Kosher salt. "It's just some stuff used for protection that I have." I start setting the white candles around the board and open the window so I can sage my room. I set the holy water next to the board and tell Brittany to sit next to it and make a salt circle around us. I sit across from Brittany as I look at the planchette on the board.

" Don't stray to far away for your mate may not stay the same, crazed and starving they will run away, doomed to their fate to meet the darkness that cannot be kept at bay." Echoing in my mind as I see a bright yellowish light come into view. I stand slowly blinking my eyes, trying to focus on the silhouette that has appeared against the blinding light. I try to shade my eyes with hand hoping it will allow me to get a better view of the thing standing in front of me, when my vision shifts becoming crstyal clear. I see Sarah standing close to the edge of a cliff. The smell of salt hitting my nose, before I register that she's crying. Hearing hear sobs of sadness as she wept. She turns to me w

Yes. Sometimes he sensed her at his back, watching. Could feel her dead gaze upon him. He would turn and see nothing, of course, or sometimes . . . sometimes he would catch a glimpse of a frail girl out of the corner of his eye. Waiting. Hungry. But nothing would be there. Salt heard noises above him, movement coming from upstairs. He put the scalps back one by one into the dried-up paint can from which he’d removed them: the fat librarian’s together with Meg Bilobran’s, and lastly Hannah’s.

“Did forever start when you used my N*****x profile, Chloe? Or when you borrowed my uterus options without asking, Ethan?” The Varyn House creaked in pity. Even the floorboards whispered, girl, I’m so sorry. I set the invitation on the counter and smiled sweetly. “May your cake be dry and your DJ only own Kidz Bop remixes.” Coffee was next. Boiled rainwater. Filtered through trauma. It tasted like roof—but caffeine was cheaper than therapy. I paced, kicking up dust and righteous fury.

Everything that happened between her family and Nicholas felt like a lifetime ago. Sensing the approaching storm, Karina secured the doors and windows of the villa at the island's center and quietly waited for the weather to clear. The next day turned out to be unexpectedly sunny. Gazing up at the cloudless sky, Karina felt the urge to go out for a walk. The sea here was a deep, vivid blue, and Karina often felt as though she had arrived at the edge of the world. Suddenly, something on the distant beach caught her attention. As she approached, she found a man curled up on the sand. He was soaked through, and the sand beneath him was stained with blood. He was likely washed ashore by last nig
