Anonymous place

I woke up with frantic breaths. Why do I keep seeing That woman again in my dreams? The one with dark brown hair. No matter how much I try, I can’t seem to remember any kind of facial expression. Her eyes her mouth nothing is visible. She just stands there. I will never find out who is she. Because I will never get out of here.

How long will I stay here? Why was I left here in the first place.? This seems like some of a mental institute.

The doctor says I am sick this is why I am here.

I don’t know how much time has passed since I was left here. Why was I left here? What did I do wrong? I don’t remember anything about my family. Who are they? Where do they live? How old am I?

Stupid brain! Why do not I remember anything?

The room I am in is a white one. Everything inside is white. I am laying on the small hospital bed with my hands and feet strapped to it. There are two doors connected to my room. One leads to the bathroom and the other… outside. It must be the e

    Five years Back The Night of Engagement SEPH’S POV It is the night of the engagement. I stood in front of the full-length mirror clad in a white dress that had delicately designed pink flowers. It felt like a funeral preparation minus the black dress. I took a hold of my mother’s locket and put it around my neck. I closed my eyes and imagined her looking at me. She must be watching over me. She must be praying for our success tonight. She is my strength. I am at Aunt Erca’s house. Two months back we had welcomed the baby girl and named her Ayla. A halo of light above the moon. Just like her name her face is bright as the moon. In our times of distress, she bought a relief. Just like how even a flicker of light could erase darkness. She gave us hope in this turmoil. We decided to dress up in Aunt Erca’s home. The dress that the monster has bought me, I will wear on his funeral. the funeral of his ego and honor.

    Athens, GreeceLARA’S POVI sat at the breakfast table with Claudia and Xander. The breakfast table is kind of empty today. Soussana has already left saying that she will be back for the party. Suspicious woman. She had expressed her distaste for Hades’ actions rather strongly saying that she can’t see him running after just an ordinary girl instead of being here with his family. Thanos has also left saying that he will be back to welcome the new bride.“Flora isn’t here yet. Did you not call her?” I asked the maid standing behind my seat.“Yes, ma’am I did. She said that she will down in a moment”My husband’s death has changed nothing. He was by no means a patient man. Hades is just like him so I can’t feel any difference.

    Jace’s POV: “Sir there is a broken tree on the road. I tried to stop but the brake didn’t work.” it was already night. I had hoped that I will go to the hotel and sleep. Too much for a little wish. It was dark outside and there was no one on the road except us. The driver got out of the car. Behind him, I went too. It was already going to rain and now this. It was a large tree. The locals must have been aware of this because there is only us here. No one else. “Sir there is a way here.” A path went into the forest. The signboard read a village. “We should go to ask help” He suggested. The weather was already getting rough. I took my gun out of the car pocket and put it into mine. We don’t know what kind of people we will meet there. “Yes, let’s go" We walked for about thirty minutes and reached a village. The village of white houses. It was enlightened by the lamps people had outside of their houses. We saw a cafe and started walking towards it. The weather screamed calm before

We placed the order and after that, he led her daughter to the back room. “Something’s fishy boss,” Castor said in a low voice as we were the only ones left at the table. “Yes definitely. Let’s roam the city and ask people” I suggested. He nodded his head in acknowledgment. I started looking outside of the café from the large window. Some people walked without even glancing inside. A woman passing by the café caught his attention. She had a baby cart that she was pushing. She stopped for a moment. Her eyes met mine. She passed me a worried glance. She was looking at something behind my back. The next moment her face was filled with a horrified expression. She started pulling the cart and just lik

But every time with wondering about the complexities of life.There was a time when I was scared to look outside in that foreign country.
