The spiral did not end in a vista. It merely re-curled on itself. Elira gained the top and gazed downward—not at height, but depth. The journey was the destination. To climb without requiring a rise. Caelan followed her to the top, a little winded. "No peak," he commented.

I put the gate on the stairs.” “Fine, whatever,” Sebastian releases his wild son to the floor. Sebastian laughs as Terry makes a bee line for the stairs. “Are you coming to Grandma?” Janice teases, opening the gate and scooping Terry up.

Tanaw niya mula sa terrace ang mga ilaw na nagmumula sa mga katabing bahay.

Usually, Terrace wasn’t a man to play around with words, but something about the conversation with him sent shivers down my spine. There was an unspoken threat connected with all the words he said.
