Together we'll crush Rose, and her secrets will be her demise, I nod, smiling, confident, our plan will surely rise. ############

Sean said before he made a rose appear seemingly from thin air, “A beautiful rose for the even more beautiful Claudia.” At those words Claudia’s expression darkened and she stood up causing her black gown to swirl around her matching the stormy look in her eyes. “What’s wrong? Did I say something wrong?” he said while wondering why Claudia wasn’t teasing him about being corny like she normally would. At that Claudia looked at him and took the rose from his hand but said as she pricked her finger with a thorn, “Yes, a rose is beautiful, but it is dangerous due to its thorns. Like the rose, I may be beautiful, but I am a predator of the night. A monster wrapped in a pretty skin.” As she finish

The man said to her. "Who are you? who do you think you are? get away from me!" stood up and left the man, but he followed her and grabbed her by the wrist. "Get it." He said and left the umbrella in the girl's hand, then she turned and ran away from him. *** "Susmaryosep senorito Stephen! why are you wet?" their head maid, Manang Sora, said worriedly. She immediately handed him a white towel and immediately wiped his face.

Rose crossed herself, her golden crucifix shining on her anxious collarbone. Rose quirked a blonde eyebrow, then smiled, putting her gun down. "Is this Ms. Iktapati good with alcohol?" The strange aswang winked. "You get me, kano." Rose pulled out some cheap Napa Valley wine from her backpack, and she and the aswang took sips. It wasn't like postdocs were loaded. Still, it was a good vintage - it had been a good year for rain. Dry, dusty, the grass brown. Then, suddenly, green under California stars.

Kimi’s room was similar. “So,” Rose started before I interrupted her. “Horror movie marathon! Classics like Halloween, Pet Sematary, and Friday the 13th!” The girls looked at me as if I’d grown an extra head. I knew they hated horror films, but I had to try. Rose tapped her elegant finger the color of cinnamon on her luscious lips. “I was thinking more along the lines of the six hour Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, Emma with Gwenneth Paltrow, and Mansfield Park.” Her lips lifted in a smirk. I groaned and face planted onto her bed. She really knew where to hit a man where it counts.

Back at the house the group had started working, gathering information about many things in hopes that something would come up, which it hadn't for the entirety of that week. On the sixth day after their visit to the Alpha, sometime past mid-day, Rose had started feeling hot and bothered, her hands trebling so much she couldn't aim in training and Rose pulled away and headed for her room, knowing what was about to happen.

Burning through the dark. Ancient. Patient. Knowing. A voice followed. Smooth. Calm. Terrible. *You learn quickly.* Rose didn’t flinch. Didn’t step back. Didn’t break the connection. “You sent them.” A pause. Then— *Yes.* The figure shifted slightly in the darkness. Not fully visible. Never fully visible. *And now… you come to me.* Rose’s fire flickered around her. Controlled. Steady. “I’m not here to be taken.”

When she tried to create distance between them, he pulled his hand out of her grasp and then picked up the rose that had fallen then he wrapped his other hand around her waist and pulled her even closer, her chest against his stomach, she could feel every slow breath he took, her knees weakened and almost became mush. He handed the bloody rose over to her, she reached for it, subconsciously collecting it from him...feeling the wetness of his blood against her fingers. “Rain...” he said. The edges of his lips curled up and his hold on her waist tightened. Rain held her breath and waited…

“My mother gave her the afternoon off yesterday before I arrived. She does not give Rosa afternoons off. She does not give Rosa anything voluntarily.” “She wanted her out of the house before you came,” Sera said. “Yes. Which means Rosa knew something my mother did not want me finding out from her directly.” He straightened. “Rosa was there during the marriage. She was there when Sera was.” He looked at Sera. Something moved through his chest that he did not have a word for yet. “She would have seen things.” Sera held his gaze for a moment. Then she picked up her bag. “Harton City first,” she said. “Rosa after.”

Someone ripped it. April Rose felt like there were a lot of important information about Cassandra Spellflower that was taken out of the book. She felt a surge of eagerness to know more about Cassandra. She flipped the pages of the book hoping to find the ripped pages, but she couldn’t find them. She grabbed a different book, flipped the pages over and over again only to find nothing but dust falling. She grabbed two more books and flipped them in hopes of finding the missing pages. Instead of finding the ripped pages, she noticed something fell from one of the books she just flipped. It was an old photo. She went down on her knees and picked up the photo, and when she flashed the light on it
