“They were out too far…for a reason. “Rodin says. Slowly, Rodin lifts his fingertips from the puddle. The blood drips back into the pool. The blood is thick almost like sludge and smells like rotten meat when it's cooked. Rodin flings the blood on the teal grass which cleans the shine on his armor. Rodin stands and he starts to walk to the tent with the flag. Varick looks over the pile. On his side is a satchel, he reaches in this compartment to pull out a book. The book’s title: “Book of The Blight.” Carefully, he sets his wolf helm down on a clean spot among the forest. The plate head sparks with pink electricity, causing the headpiece to slightly hover along with the grassy blade tips. Va

Niah tightened her grip on my shirt. It was not my first time seeing an awful sight of mounds of skeletons, but I guess it’s her first. “Do you know this place?” I asked. I gulped as sweat soaked the back of my shirt, though the humidity was freezing. The place felt like poltergeists haunted it for a very long time. “I-I do not know…” Why is there a basement under the library? Who else knew this place? Who are these corpses?

"I am uncertain about how things may turn around in the end. If it goes according to the plan then well, but a smallest ripple can cause a huge disaster." "So do we take that risk?" Ana insisted on him again, as that was the only way to save themselves according to her. "I am not convinced but doing something is far better than to keep quiet and see death approach." Levi sighed, finally agreeing with her. "Let us begin the search in the basement, we may find something." Levi nodded. ****** Time flies quickly. Two days had passed. The couple was still searching for some clue in the basement for time traveling. The basement contained a lot of books. All the books were old and had dark brown co

He narrowed his eyes. “This is blank.” He said. “It’s nothing. I found it in the basement.” I lied and put the book back under the bed and turned to Dumeny. He didn’t look like he believe me but he didn’t say anything further which I am glad. I am a terrible liar and so they are. they hide things from me, why cannot I? “Okay then. Before you kick me out of your room, I should get going.” He said and hugged me. I returned the hug and opened the door for him.

I replied with a shrug. "Let's just say that I'm curious because I'm bored and also because anybody could be interested in hearing how two lovers met and since I don't have anything else that I'm doing with my time, I just want to listen to a story about how you met him. So, will you tell me or are you going to ask me to mind my business?" I asked. I desperately wanted her to tell me the truth but I'm not expecting her to be completely honest with me because it would make it obvious that their story wasn't exactly normal but I still wanted to hear her say something because I believe that in every lie, there's always an iota of truth.

But I had much to learn here in the city. Despite how hard everyone tried to keep to themselves, they were all gossips. Harry was getting married this weekend to a girl his mother hated. The poor girl was as nervous as a cat in a thunderstorm. Then there was Jem who was cheating on his girl with Olivia. And the Harrison’s were in the middle of a nasty divorce. But beneath the shallowness there were secrets. And plans that no one was too keen on keeping a secret. But yet they were life changing. And they had to do with my people. “Did you hear Lisa Harris’ daughter is now under investigation?”

Sienna adjusted the collar of her blouse as she stood in front of the small group of women seated in folding chairs. A banner hung behind her, the freshly printed letters reading: Lucia Foundation – Hope Beyond the Shadows. Natalia stood off to the side, clipboard in hand, giving her an encouraging nod. “You’ve got this,” Natalia whispered. Sienna smiled, then took a breath and stepped forward. “Thank you all for coming today. I know how hard it can be to walk into a room like this. I’ve been where you are. Caught in a world that told me silence was survival.”

“It would be my pleasure to tell him your little secret.” I had felt the shift in the room instantly, dozens of eyes turning toward her, toward me. And then she lied. “I don’t know what he’s talking about.” Calm voice, steady gaze but not steady enough. I knew a lie when I saw one. I had built an empire reading people, knowing when they were bluffing, when they were hiding, when they were selling me something they didn’t believe in themselves. Lila was hiding something. But when Max lunged for her, even the twitch of his hand toward her I hadn’t thought.

It didn’t go up. No. It went down. And not just a little— twenty freaking floors down. My stomach did an uncomfortable little flip as the numbers on the panel started counting in reverse. -1. -2. -3. I knew Ace had secrets. Dangerous, terrifying, psychotic secrets. But an entire twenty-floor underground base hidden beneath a forest? That wasn’t just secretive—that was full-blown supervillain lair territory. This man really had a whole empire buried beneath the ground, and I’d just been standing on top of it, clueless.
