Monster House End Novels & Stories

would even any of its body be left after this point. Boom! Crash! “ROARRRR!” The monster’s roars were all that they could hear as their barrage of attacks had well created a massive cloud of dust blocking all of their views from the monster. Soon enough its roars faded and they all showed a relieved expression. “Is it over?” The words of Nora and Amber echoed around the room. Zia was unable to say anything but still, she agreed with the words of the other two with a nod of her head.

But my grandfather sent me again to another school named 'HARRISON UNIVERSITY' A typical but high-end school congested with bitches, nerds, lovers, jerks, bullies, and the pathetic ones who love to see themselves bullied. Not until I started to see bizarre things, I never wish to involve with. 'Monsters'—that's what Harrison University has. From that day on, I learn that all things happening inside this campus are bound to each other. Too late for me to realize that these will lead me to the place where I can find the identity that I myself don't want to bring back.

He jumps back off me and pretends to shoot things. I turn to Wes, raising an eyebrow. “I see you still have your work cut out for you.” He laughs. “Having another girl around here is going to be strange.” “We need more girls in this family.” “You are pretty outnumbered.” Mom calls us into the kitchen for a quick dinner before heading Eastwood’s downtown Trick or Treating. I check my phone for missed calls, just in case, and set it on the counter. We eat and then attempt to leave but end up dealing with a fifteen-minute temper tantrum because Wes told Jackson he had to go potty before they could leave the house and Jackson refused to go.

Heaving a heavy exasperated sigh, I threw my head down on the headrest of the back seat before uttering a single, "No." Perturbed and puzzled, He forgot the urge to pry more and asked me the billion-dollar question. "Where to, Boss?" He asked hesitantly and expectantly at the same time and I could feel the urge and wish to go home from his voice as he needed to go home and dig deeper through the system but I was far from done. Not when she was still missing. "The Mond's mansion." I deadpanned sternly and he's head whipped abruptly to the back to meet my murderous glare.

I was glad it was a superhero movie because watching the zombies destroy the world was much better than unrealistic happily-ever-after. Once the movie ended, we walked out of the theatre together and decided to order a cab. Anna and Noah kept arguing over the different interpretations of the climax as we waited while I fished out my phone. I didn’t realize that it was on mute as the forty-nine missed calls from Marco flashed on my screen. “Uh, guys, I need to take this—” The next couple of seconds were faster than the speed of light but were too significant to forget. A screeching noise of a car echoed from behind, making me spun around. There were hysterical screams and commotion all around

“ We just broke up. The breakup was mutual.” "If you call kidnapping your dog, mutual." I pull my weapon and stand at the top step in front of the house. The place is deserted, and as long as we don't have a runner or worse, then we might have a shot of getting this done before dinner. * I bite my cheek to hold back a laugh as I find myself looking at the house. I don’t know if it’s the conversation or the fact that the house looks like a doll’s house, but my usual calm demeanor isn't there anymore. The outside is decorated meticulously with muted, aged children’s toys.

Then, finally, the shifting stopped. What was left lying on the bloody concrete wasn’t a monster anymore. It was Miles.

His hand lifted, hovered just inches from the handle. If he turned it , if he stepped inside there’d be no undoing it. Not this time. He could finish what they started. Bury himself so deep inside that mouth, inside that want, that for a few hours, he wouldn’t have to think about betrayal and bloodlines and wedding vows. He could forget. But the thing about monsters was they followed you, even after the lights went out. And Rafael already knew, no matter how hard he tried to kill this thing between them, it wouldn’t stay buried.

I whispered as the sun began to peek over the FUTO horizon, painting the campus in shades of rose and gold. He looked at me, and for the first time in fifty-five chapters, the shadows were gone from his eyes. He leaned in, kissing me with a softness that made the world stand still. It wasn't a kiss of desperation; it was a kiss of peace. "It's over, Elara," he whispered against my lips. "The Monster is dead. Only the man is left."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door flung open. Dad was startled by Mom's frantic expression. He took a step backward. Mom was like a long-term prisoner who finally saw sunlight. She hastily fixed her hair as she sobbed in joy. "Henry, it's you! It really is you! You're back! Oh my goodness, you're really back. Anne and I never moved away because we knew you'd come back." The landlord tried chasing Mom and me away on multiple occasions, but we refused to budge. Mom compromised time and again just so that we could stay here. Our small home turned into a warehouse, and a walk-in freezer was installed later on. Mom and I were barely getting by while we waited for Dad.
