Haley wanted to ask what Henry was about to say, but upon hearing his last sentence, she forgot about everything else and hurried into the bathroom. Shane was lying in the porcelain bathtub, his eyes tightly closed. His face was as pale as paper, devoid of any color.

‘His’ by Aubrey Dark, ‘ Haunting Adeline’ , ‘The Priest’ by Sierra Simone. “Who knew the great and mighty Dylan Xavier reads these kinds of books” I murmured, wearing a smile. Since he didn't come to bed that night, I had stayed there throughout in my night dress. It was almost noon and I hadn't showered. It wasn't that I didn't want to shower but I just felt I should wait for him till he came back to see me like this, all dirty and the rest. I opened a book to read suddenly the door swung open revealing the person I had been waiting for.

the letter read. “I spent four hours today arguing with a man who smelled like old goat cheese and gunpowder. I found myself wondering if you were still reading about the Medicis, or if you’d moved on to something less bloody. I found a bookstore in a small village today. It was tucked between a bakery and a butcher shop. I saw a first edition of 'The Shining' and thought of you. Stay in the sun, Little Bird.” I laughed again, a sound that I had not genuinely made in a while .

Light was streaming out the bottom edge, but I could still distinctly hear the shower running. Turning back to the laptop, I had to click several times because my hand was shaking. The mouse highlighted over the first document on the list. It was called "Marianne's symphony". The document opened and I immediately began reading. I became immersed in his words completely as my father drew me into his world once more.

It looked up at him through the glass. The same eye. The eye made of living letters. Its pupil narrowed. A single sentence echoed inside Adrian's mind. DO NOT BREAK THE FINAL SEAL. Before Adrian could react... the black book unlocked itself. A sharp metallic click echoed across the Silent Shore. The silver lock fell onto the wooden desk. No one had touched it. No one had spoken. The cover slowly lifted... just enough for a single page to become visible. And across that first page... only one sentence had been written.

“After the accident I drank more, usually at night, so I could sleep. I didn’t write at all, not anything that mattered, anyway, because I was never sober. And that thing in the shadows was always waiting for me in my nightmares, or every time I closed my eyes. That and those damned whispers. You know after a while, I wrote those words down and Googled them. Want to know what they mean?” I shake my head because suddenly, I want this to be done. Gavin’s a great guy but I just want this to be done. My gut’s been squirming the whole time and even though I know these stories can’t be true, I can’t deny a feeling of instinctual dread about the other stories in this book, and what they’ll say. Bec

The blind man heaved a sigh but he didn’t say anything again, he didn’t want to annoy her again. “I will feed you while reading a book, okay?” “Sure, what book are we reading today?” “Uhhmmm” Audrey giggled, “let me check my shelf” She checked for a while and finally grabbed a book from the shelf and made her way back to the bed. “Guess the book I have” Nathan shrugged with a smile, “I can’t guess babe, I am a blind man remember?” “Ugly love by Colleen Hoover, it is a very good book and I have read it a thousand times”

The air turned reedy, thin. Through the great turning, he caught glimpses of that night in Lismore. There were feathers flying there, too. Gulls feeding on a dropped pie, ratty eyes twitching. A cab slamming up over the curb. The lanky man falling to the ground. Smashing glass. A man blocking out the moon as he stabbed, and stabbed, and stabbed. Terrible lightning spears of pain. Where do you hurt? Danny shoved his earbuds back in and fumbled with his phone, turning the volume up as loud as it would go, humming along. He didn’t know the words. No matter. All he needed was the beat and for his surroundings to trip into musical alignment.
