The Best Of The Whispers Novels & Stories

They leaned into each other, whispering like I wasn’t close enough to hear. “He’s so hot. Layla must be the luckiest being on earth,” one of them said. If only she knew. “If I had one wish,” another voice chimed in, louder than the rest, “I’d wish Sebastian was mine forever.” They burst into giggles, hands flying to their mouths like they’d said something scandalous. I almost laughed. Forever. That had to be the dumbest thing anyone had ever wished for. I kept walking, the murmurs fading behind me until the only sound left was my own footsteps. I reached my door, tilted the handle, and stepped inside.

I know where the line is, and I know how to walk it without falling. He finally lifts his gaze. Gray eyes. Cold as the barrel of a gun. He’s in a black button-down, sleeves rolled. There’s a silver watch on his wrist and a blade on the desk in front of him, not decorative. He likes to clean his knives when he’s bored. Or when he’s thinking about someone who needs to disappear. “I’ve been hearing whispers,” he says calmly. “About you.” My blood turns to glass. “Oh?” “You’ve been spending time in the South District.”

[Does anyone have contact with Silhouette? I'm an artist and wanted to reference her photography, but I can't find her anywhere.] [Why has Silhouette's account been deactivated?] [Please come back, Silhouette!
