Lowering myself to her level, I held her shoulders gently and brushed a strand of hair from her face. “No,” I said softly. “No, honey. You just had a nightmare. That’s all.” She didn’t look convinced. “Mummy has no reason to hurt Daddy,” I added quickly. “I’ll be back soon. And guess what? We’re spending Christmas here with Grandma and Uncle Elliot.” Her face lit up instantly. “Yeah.” “I’m just going to get a few things for Christmas,” I said. “I’ll be back.” I turned away before she could ask anything else.

Ten in the Night. Leonard parked his car quietly in front of the Lockwood main gate. Since it was the wee hours, he decided not to alarm anyone in the mansion. Only the security at the gate who opened the gate for him knew of his arrival. Leonard silently strolled into the Lockwood mansion, his footsteps silent as he walked down the dim hallway. He was impressed by the top-notch security placed around the mansion. If not for his kin sense of security, he would have been caught by one of the security devices installed around the mansion.

"When?" "An hour ago. Just before dawn." "How did she get past the lock?" Dmitri met my eyes, his jaw set in a hard line. "The latch didn't click when you went to bed last night. The door was resting on the frame." A stupid, inexcusable mistake. I’d been so exhausted, so thoroughly undone by her, that I hadn't checked the lock. It was the kind of oversight that got men killed in my line of work. "What did she see?"

One night to breathe before facing everyone again. But I didn’t sleep. Not really. That night, my nightmares returned. And they came hard. The room was dark, but the nightmare was darker. I was back in the old facility. The one where I betrayed them. Where I hurt the children. Chains hung from the walls. Screams echoed in the air. I saw myself, standing tall, wearing black gloves. “Do it,” a voice said. “No,” I cried. But nightmare-Rosa did it. She pushed the button.

Reaching forward, my finger brush against the locket and the voice practically screams; ‘SET ME FREE~’ Snatching up the locket, I turn it over in my hands, looking it over carefully. Against better judgement, I click the button on the side of the locket and it springs open, black mist exiting it and quickly filling the room. My breath catches in my throat as my sight leaves me, filling me with pure terror.

Night Terrors Mickey pov I had just finished showering off the debris from my rampage in the forest when the screaming started. The sound cut through the walls of the pack house like a blade—high, desperate, and filled with the kind of terror that came from reliving the worst moments of a nightmare. I moved faster than humanly possible, covering the distance from the upstairs bathroom to the family room in seconds. What I found there made my heart stop. Lily was still on the couch where I had left her, but she was no longer peacefully sleeping. Instead, she was trapped in the grip of what was clearly a violent nightmare, her small body thrashing against invisible restraints while she screame

A thick padlock held the main door shut. Jason and Teddy went straight to work on prying the lock open. Jason clenched his teeth, his hands rock steady as he manipulated the mechanism, while Teddy placed pressure with a crowbar. Rick, on the other hand, had the assistant boss in a grip of steel. Just as the lock snapped loudly, we all stood stock still for a moment, holding our breaths to see if anyone had heard us break in. There was a strained silence that hung about us. "Run!" Rick whispered.

More bones crack. Oh God. This beast is going to kill him. “Stop!” I cry, voice shaky. “Whoever you are, don’t kill him!” The beast halts, growling low, then in a sudden hurl, throws Nathan across the room. Cracks echo as Nathan heals his dislocated bone. He scrambles to his feet, eyes wide with fear, and bolts for the door. The door slams shut behind him. A click follows. What the… Did he just... lock me in?

I was someone who suffered from nightmares, but paradoxically, the darkness here, was calming. I dragged my feet towards his bed and that’s when I saw the frame on his nightstand, next to a Bible. This man owned a Bible? My curiosity fully took over from this moment. I flipped it open. Maxine Jackson. I frowned a closed it. Who was she? My eyes slid back to the frame and I picked it up.
