Trapped In The Closet Chapters 13 22 Novels & Stories

**Chapter 22: Shadows and Revelations** **Dante’s Hideout** In a quiet suburb, hidden from prying eyes, stood a modest house. Time had worn down its façade, but its walls held memories of a family long fractured. Inside, Dante sat in a dimly lit living room, the flickering light of a single lamp casting shadows across his sharp features. A smile played on his lips, cold and cunning, as he imagined Marcus stumbling into the trap he had set.

“Oh, shoot. This is L112, and the right room should be G112. We have to go back upstairs.” Nodding, I followed Nellie out of the room. The door fell shut behind us, the sound of it echoing through the corridors and making me cringe. Nellie didn’t falter, though, and just continued scurrying through the halls. But as I went to follow her, I was suddenly jerked back, choked by my cloak’s neck strap. I gasped, stumbling back, and found that my cloak had gotten caught in the door. “Wait! Nellie!” I hissed, tugging on my cloak. “I’m stuck! I need the code!”

Grabbed the chain himself. He pulled with all his strength. Muscles straining. Face reddening. The door didn't budge. "No. No, no, NO!" He dropped the chain. Spun around. Looking for another way out. But there wasn't one. The corridor we'd come through was the only way back. And beyond that was the main basement. With the bombs. With the locked door at the top of the stairs. We were trapped. All of us. "This is your fault!" He rounded on me. "You and Sterling! You planned this! Trapped me in my own—"

Just then did I see two little foxes in her store room causing to wonder where she had gotten them from, Swallowing hard I proceed to move into the closet taking four bold steps of faith hoping they really don't bite, The door closes shut behind me traping me 8n like it had been waiting for me to walk in conveniently, different thoughts run through my mind could she have known I am trying to place as my pawn or is she going to compel me into doing things, "Stop freaking out it's just so normal for doors like this to close themselves shut , Akela lights on please" The lights turns on each turning on after the other the two little foxes snuggle up to me both watching me carefully like they are

Swallowing thickly, I slide the dress over my body with my eyes glued towards the room I just crawled out of. 'Please don't let him find me, lord jesus. I swear I'll be a good girl. I'll eat all my greens and donate to charity.' I snatch my purse from the kitchen counter, swiftly stoop down, retrieve my heels, and turn towards the door. As I attempt to make my daring escape, a surge of electricity engulfs me when I suddenly find myself being pressed against the cool slab of timber, trapped by a strong hand forcing it closed above my head.

TAKE ME, RUIN ME CHAPTER 24 CHAPTER 24. SECRETS I’M NOT READY TO FACE I stand there, frozen in Selena’s hallway, my travel bag still clutched in my hand. My mind is spinning so fast I feel dizzy. What the hell is going on here right now? Everything is moving at a speed I can’t keep up with. I thought I had finally escaped the tension and the suffocating heat of Adrian’s presence back at my apartment. I thought coming here would mean safety and a quiet night to gather my thoughts. But instead, I’ve walked right back into the trap. I’m going to be stuck under the same roof with him all over again.

No matter how I tried to rearrange the facts, they kept leading to the same conclusion. I shouldn't go. Every logical part of my brain knew it was a trap designed to pull me under completely. But as I smoothed the cheap silk over my waist, my eyes unblinking in the glass, the truth was already written in my silence. I shouldn't go... but I will. End of Chapter 13

"Psst… shut up! Don't make any noise, or they'll catch us here," said Biggest. "But how did you get here?" asked Jonea emphatically. She looked around and was absolutely sure she was on the fourth floor. There is no access to get there other than the main door, which has just been locked by the security guards. "I knew you were going to do something terrible," Biggest quipped. "From the start, I couldn't believe you. That's why I keep following you. And now you're really doing something crazy!"

Chapter 6: Shattered Petals, Shattered Fate Slowly, I opened my eyes. The cherry blossom patterns on my dress shimmered, petals unfurling like a secret. Travis smiled, proud and calm. “You’re stronger than you think.” But just as hope blossomed, the shadows flickered again. A voice whispered from the darkness, cold and cruel. “You cannot escape.” I spun around, but the room was empty. The curse was watching. Waiting. Back in the library, Mom and I sat in silence, the weight of the night pressing down.

I blurted out taking in the view of the darkening seacoast. He stood next to me and remarked, "It gets better in the morning." I became cold all of a sudden, but I related it to the fact that I had removed my sweater because it was too hot. As a result, I should have been hot. Before tonight, I never knew it was possible to feel so free and so trapped. The staff had all slipped out, like quiet shadows, so that we were utterly alone in the room. Miraculously resisting the impulse to break down or run away, I said. "I need to take a shower."
