The Madness Episode Season 1 Episode 5 Novels & Stories

If Mira's initial words could still be misinterpreted as a misunderstanding, her current actions and speech left no room for doubt. She hadn't mistaken anyone. This was no misunderstanding. Now, everyone was completely stunned. The livestream chat exploded with confusion. "What's going on? Is Aris really Luna Mira's mother?" "No way! Didn't Aris spend over twenty years raising someone else's son? How does she suddenly have a daughter?" "Exactly! And such an exceptional daughter at that! Compared to Luna Mira, that useless son of hers is like night and day!"

"Hello?" I heard Tina Green's shrill voice on the other end of the line. She sounded on the verge of tears as she shrieked, "Rowan! Miranda wants to jump off the building! S-She's having a meltdown, and she's screaming for you! She won't let anyone get close." The phone crackled with harsh static, followed by Miranda Kane's hysterical screams. "Ro, are you with Clara? Do you not want me anymore?" Her voice was so shrill that it almost pierced my eardrums. "I knew it! I knew that wretched woman…"

before I can finish, she’s already accepted the call. She glances at me nervously and says, “Hello?” “Anna” Tom’s voice is ragged as he pants her name, “have you seen Chloe?” Anna looks at me. I shake my head frantically. She hesitates but says, “I was on my way to meet her now. Why? Is something wrong?” “She’s having another episode.” He says. Episode?! I want to snap at him that it’s actually extremely rational to not want to be held hostage by a mistress and a maid, or send back to an abusive asylum but I know it’s best to stay quiet.

Through the eyes of the black cat was Rose. She was the one who had turned into a black cat as per Mona’s hypnosis which allow her to look into the past that Dominic experienced. Prior to her entering his mind, Mona held the pendulum across her eyes. She could hear Mona’s voice as her consciousness slowly drifted away, “Just look into his past, you don’t have to do anything.” Now, she witnessed the time when Lady Elizabeth had fought with Duke Jeremiah. The man appeared to be relaxed while Lady Elizabeth appeared to be on her toes, seemingly angered and disappointed by him.

“Just a small part. There are still things I can’t fully recall or understand.” While reliving that memory, it had felt as though she’d been a backseat passenger, watching it unfold. No matter how hard she tried to grasp the details, they remained just out of reach. “That’s… interesting.” Drusden blew a puff of smoke. “I wonder, Mrs. Ayadi, if that memory involved Gil—” A sudden, deafening boom cut him off. Arah jumped, her heart racing. The explosion shattered the air outside, and from a distance, she heard Zylas yell, “The motherfuckers are here, boss!”

Then she would vanish without a trace the next day. Dominic was too afraid to sleep. He forced himself to walk around the mansion at night. The extreme anxiety made him unusually sensitive. He yelled at his servants and even pointed a gun at their heads, which terrified them. On one occasion, he accidentally fired his gun and nearly shot his bodyguard. People avoided Dominic as if he were a plague. News of Dominic’s madness spread wide. “If I close my eyes, you better wake me up!” Dominic pleaded as he gripped my hand tightly.

He behaved just like a lunatic. In the end, the drug dealers were punished according to the law. Meanwhile, Harvey was sent to the hospital before he had the chance to personally avenge me. Natalie had a high fever that day and was very ill. The second she noticed Harvey's figure in the hospital, she rushed up to him and hugged him. Sadly, Harvey was no longer a sane man. The moment Natalie hugged him, he stabbed her with the knife. As a result, he was taken to a psychiatric hospital.

Screaming. Shrieking. Chaos. My mother’s piercing scream tore through the entire estate, dragging everyone toward the room. Footsteps thundered from every direction. Doors slammed open. Voices overlapped in confusion—until they saw the screen. Until they saw me. The pack house erupted. Seraphina, standing closest to the screen, went deathly pale—then collapsed instantly, her body crumpling to the floor. Caden staggered backward as if struck, crashing hard into a heavy oak table.

“Give me a reason to declare you medically unfit for transport.” The heavy doors at the end of the corridor slammed open. Male voices echoed down the hall. Kaelen released my arm, his fingers lingering a moment against my cold skin. He took the armchair opposite the desk and pulled out a pen. “Begin.” I wore a familiar mask. I threw myself onto the floor near the hearth. I dragged my hands through my soot-stained hair. I began to mutter nursery rhymes, fragmented memories, and gibberish. “The birds are in the chimney, Doctor. They’re cooking the silver. The clock struck thirteen…” I rocked back and forth. “Julian dropped his tea. The poison is in the sugar. Don’t let the sugar melt…”

Flashback to when Sheila had terrified Madison in her car after she testified at the police station. In a frenzy, Madison raced the car home, her heart threatening to jump out of her throat. The panic gradually began to wear her down as her mind reeled with what she had seen and heard: Glowing eyes, fangs, and an animalistic growl. SHEILA WAS NO HUMAN! In her thoughts, Madison had fearfully admitted. Still, a tinge of uncertainty lingered. But she knew there was only one person who would make her feel less insane and also confirm what she had seen —her mother.
