My head becomes heavier each moment and so my eyelids. I blinked rapidly, fighting the urge to fall asleep but my efforts were useless. The more I struggled to keep myself wide awake the more I was pulled into the portals of darkness. In the end, I was defeated. My eyes fluttered close and before I even knew it, I was pulled into a place where there's nothing but an endless realm of darkness. At least I could rest for a while…. I told myself as the pitch black darkness swallowed me whole. I…

I was single-handedly dragged across the floor as if I weighed no more than a feather. My blood trailing behind me as it stained the white tiles. At this point, I was more helpless than before. I couldn't even move my fingers. Vince tied my wrists tightly that the rope harshly dug deep into my flesh making my hands numbed with pain. ?? I tried kicking him but I was surprised when my legs didn't even move an inch. How am I supposed to fight when I can't move a body part??My strength drained quickly…

"I told you…. You could never escape from me, Phoenix. I promise to kill you before this night is over." He hissed furiously between greeted teeth as he towered over me. I lay on the floor, rolling from the excruciating blow in my skull….?It hurts like hell that it feels as if my head is splitting into two. ?? My fear grew into the size of a monster as he spoke and slowly crossed the remaining distance between us that his foot now touched my thighs. Even if I have my eyes pressed together…

"Phoenix, is there something wrong?" Catherine Grace called out behind me. I flinched, surprised to know she was there. I didn't even notice her entering my room. ?? I blinked several times and pulled myself out of the trance I was currently into before tearing my gaze from the window where I could see nothing but the stretch of dark horizon. The sky looks lonely. There's no stars nor moon to make it lively. For some reason, when I was still staring at the window, specifically towards the…

It took one bullet to shatter the floor ceiling glass window. The ear piercing sound of glass breaking and crashing to the tiled floor shattered the deafening silence of the night. Jumping off the window is his last option….. ?? There's no other way to survive…. Even if he ran out of the door, the explosion would undoubtedly reach him and he would be roasted before he even knew it. And so…. He did the only thing he could to survive. He jumped out of the window with his eyes closed…

True love is meant to last a lifetime so ?? there is nothing wrong with being patient and making sure you get things right. *** Ace retreated out of Samantha's creepy room with quick but careful steps. He pulled the door behind him. It closed with a soft click. As he fell back past through the cold and sinister corridors that seemed to stretch longer than usual, he heightened his senses, preparing himself from an unexpected attack. Just in case Samantha would suddenly launch at…

A knock on the door sounded, indicating the time had come. He glanced at his gleaming wristwatch and saw the time was seven pm. Exactly the time Lucas Nicholas and he agreed to go. He rose from the single sofa. Before he headed to the door he grabbed his leather gloves on top of the glass table, and slid them on his fingers. He took a deep breath before he reached for the knob and pulled the door open. His best friend was standing outside the door. He stood straight, legs slightly apart, and arms…

Lucas Nicholas sat proudly on his throne—his swivel chair—like the infamous god of the underworld, Hades. The eerie silence inside his office wrapped through him like a cloak. The beep on his laptop instantly carved a frown on his forehead. The sound indicates a new message has arrived. He clicked on the notification bar. Catherine Grace, his cousin, the OIC of the Investigation Firm he worked at sent him a video file. He was about to ignore her message when he received another, this…

My breathing suspends on my throat as I watch the video play. The video began with the door opening. Vince enters, dragging an unconscious body behind him. When the man's face turns to the camera, it could be seen that the man Vince dragged inside the room was Ace. Just as he dropped the body to the floor, the door unceremoniously opens, this time Angela strode inside. Her gaze falls to the floor and her eyes widens when she sees the body. She rushes towards Vince and confronts him. The two…

We found Angela's car concealed behind the deserted part of the forest where overgrown grasses stood. The car was safely hidden and in good condition. There's no sign that something was there nor was there any evidence someone tried to steal from the car. Catherine Grace carefully reached for the door and pulled it open but it won't budge. The car was locked and we didn't have the key either. We could smash the window with a rock but it would damage the inside of the car. Shards would fly inside…
