Beat after beat that made the bed under them creak, mixed with the sighs of the two of them. It is this sound that dominates the hotel room they occupy. Echoing between the bedroom walls and bouncing off the ceiling… The moonlight that penetrates in, becomes a silent witness for the two people who are pushing themselves to achieve worldly pleasures that cannot be described in words. Again and again… They did it all night… # # # The room was dark and gloomy because none of the lights were on, while the owner was holding his cellphone tightly and standing

“Roxane! Roxane… where are you?!” Dark called out into the darkness, fear and worry clearly etched in his voice. Even their staff were immediately thrown into alert mode when the lights completely went out. Chaos erupted—people shouting, some crashing into tables, others tripping over, while a few quickly pulled out flashlights. “Someone broke in!” Drick shouted, breathless as he tried to chase a shadow moving swiftly through the dark. The beam of his flashlight briefly landed on the figure before it vanished once more.

"Boss, we’re here." Virgo’s tap on Dark’s shoulder jolted him awake. He blinked rapidly, disoriented for a moment, realizing he had dozed off during the ride. They were all in the van, except for Palvin, who was nowhere in sight. Dark ran a hand through his messy hair, trying to steady himself, his heart already hammering in anticipation.

❤️ The Invisible Chain ❤️ ​The Dark Mountain was a land buried in thick silence and heavy shadows. ​Cedric stood completely still in the middle of his room. His bright amber eyes were fixed on the window, looking out into the grey empty space beyond the door. His face was set like hard carved rock, showing no feeling at all, but his broad shoulders sagged under a heavy weight, a deep tiredness that came from spending hundreds of years waiting in the dark.

“We are going to get through this, Cam.” I want to believe him but I don’t know how. ***** That night I lie in bed with my eyes wide open in the dark, my fingers twisted in the blanket, listening to every single sound in the building around me. Someone’s TV is on down the hall, the low murmur of voices I can’t quite make out. Footsteps in the apartment above me, back and forth, back and forth. A door slams somewhere and my whole body tenses. I close my eyes and try to sleep but all I can see is Ryan’s face, all I can hear is his voice saying I’ll find out what’s going on, I always do, and my eyes snap open again.

because my life has reached a level of pathetic that requires supernatural intervention. “Veni ad me, daemon ignis,” I mutter, squinting at my phone. “Uh— vincula carnis, something something, claim me?” I snort. Take a sip of wine. The candles flicker again, harder this time, all of them at once, and the temperature in the room drops so fast I see my breath. The lights go out. Not just the candles. Everything. The kitchen light, the bathroom light, the glow of my phone, all of it dies at once and the darkness is absolute, total, the kind of dark that has weight and texture and presence.

That room is definitely cursed and I don't have the courage to open it. I opened the refrigerator and morning's frozen breakfast gawked back at me. I thought I would eat it for dinner but Catherina ordered us dinner as it was late due to rain. I grabbed a water bottle for the night and kept the lights on. I don't like darkness, I am scared of it. My heart thuds whenever I see the dark corner. It feels like he is staring at me. The man who has snatched the light from my life, it feels like he is here or maybe I am so paranoid that my mind creates an illusion.

Dark, on the other hand, was still on call with Jachrimo while driving fast. Tolentino's men, huh? He is being attacked by a person with that surname. I wonder if my Dad knows Dark's another enemy. "Okay, let's meet in the mansion, then," Dark said and immediately dropped the call. He threw it on the passenger's seat and gazed at me from his rearview mirror. "Are you okay?" "Is..." I mumbled and slowly got up from the seat. "Is someone trying to kill us?" "No," he abruptly answered and sighed. "It's just that... ummm.... it's complicated."

**A Door to Darkness** The once cozy cabin has become a fortress under siege. The wind howls outside, shaking the fragile structure, while the ominous voice beyond the door echoes with a bone-chilling threat. Shadows dance on the walls, illuminated only by the flickering light from the fireplace. Inside, the tension is suffocating as Ethan, Sophia, and Jason stand frozen, their minds racing to comprehend the danger creeping closer.

It’s dark. Cold. Or maybe it’s hot and I’m sweating? I don’t know. I do know that I can’t see, so I must be in a place that’s dark. There’s a presence near me, it feels dark. Like evil dark. Even in the pitch blackness of the room, I can see the shadowed outline of someone hovering around me. The room is pitch black, but even in a dark room there’s ambient light. His shape takes all of that light away.
