Leila found it difficult to concentrate on her work. She had been given a break from work so she could clear her mind.

She knew in her heart it was a suspension she had been given. Her boss had called it a break so it would not look offensive.

The manager had called her aside one evening.

"You've not been yourself recently. You've not been focused. I know you know."

Leila sighed.

"I'm sorry for breaking the plates and glass cups. I will...."

The manager cut her short.

"I understand It's an accident."

    "James!"Scarlet could feel her heart beating out of rhythm. They had left the little boy here alone by himself.Where had he gone?Thomas checked the other rooms if he could find him there. They both were worried."I found him!"Thomas shouted so Scarlet could hear him. He was in Jane's bedroom checking out her drawings.Tears slid down his face.

I think something is not right."David approached the man himself.He asked him if he lived there. He responded positively.He sighed and paused for a while. He ask

She said she would not say anything until she saw his boss, David.David sighed."Is it about Leila's condition? Has something happened to her?""Not at all."Ryan answered.He heaved a sigh of relief. He had scared him with the way he approached him."You scared me."He was relieved now."I'm sure you're David."Felicia said David.David nodded his head. His eyes were fixed on Leila's face.

    Ryan cleared his throat and left the room for them.What mattered to him now was that Leila had regained consciousness."We tracked you down through your social media handle."Leila sighed.She was grateful for staying with her all through the time she was unconscious."Thank you for staying with me."He tried to move closer to her."No. Stay where you are."She didn't want him closer. She didn't trust herself not to kiss him as soon as he got closer.Her heart still beat for him. It was weird to her.Despite how she tried to forget about him. She had relocated too, thinking it would help, but every day and night she yearned for him.She looked away.Her eyes glistened with tears. She thought she had moved on. Now that he was here, why was her heart beating fast?"I miss you.....so much"David mumbled. It's been six months of torture without her.

    He shoved it inside his mouth."Eat your eye! You evil bastard."He spat it out, moaning.Collins felt the World closing in on him. He muttered,"I hate you."He cackled softly.

    Tears streamed down her face.She had begun to feel nauseous. Something was pulling her from the inside.She wondered if that was her inner wolf. Her eyes widened. She had no idea what it would look like for her to change into a werewolf.She was sure she had been infected by Collins. A bite alone meant something."It's almost getting dark. I will begin the first phase of the honeymoon. The first phase of the honeymoon would be before we wed and the second phase would be after we have wedded. When it's full moon."Leila had not been listening the whole time. Her mind was occupied with the thought of changing into a werewolf.Collins didn't care if she was listening or not.

    Anna was sure Valerie had seen something."If you had seen the innocent Collins, you would feel pity for him. I thought it was cruel of Valerie to say that. I was angry.""You didn't ask her why she said you could kill if need be?"Anna asked Silas."She said I would know if the time comes."Silas answered and continued."I flared up and told her she shouldn't have adopted him if she could not show him care and love. Our parents didn't raise us to be cruel."David didn't say anything. He was just listening attentively. He knew Silas was going somewhere."I raised Collins. He was a sweet boy, I thought he would be aggressive. It baffled me I didn't see anything strange about his behavior."He paused and continued."My anger at Valerie intensified. I thought she said all those mean things about Collins because she didn't want to take responsibility for him. Some weeks later, Valerie divorced her husband and moved to California with her new lover."David had now become impatient. Silas w

    She meant it."If David had not caught us, I would have slapped your dirty face. You have no shame!"She spat. He disgusted her.Collins exhaled deeply."Well, there's nothing you can do about it. If you do not want me, I want you. Jane would not have died if you did what asked you to do.""Get my niece's name out of your decaying mouth.""Should I brief you on how she died?"His lips curved into a smile."I also bound her to the same chair you are currently bound to. She begged me to take her out of this creepy place. She cried for her mummy and Aunt."Leila stared dagger at him. If eyes could kill, hers could have killed Collins by now."She was scared, she hugged me, I had no other choice. When I thought of you and David fucking, it made my heart bleed, and there was no room for mercy."He paused. He bent over Leila. He wanted her to hear what he was about to say clearly."I drove the knife into her left eye first."His breath brushed her face. Leila was shaking. She wanted to brea

    They knew they deserved no mercy because they failed to do their job.David opened his eyes. He exhaled deeply."Collins is the devil behind all this. Get your things and disperse. We are hunting him down."He was sure they understood he meant weapons when he told them to get their things.They all looked at themselves with wide eyes. How was that possible?"Collins?"Ryan asked. He was lost. He wanted to be sure David had not mentioned the wrong name."Yes. I found out...he deceived us all."Scarlet was sure she had not misheard him. How could he be spewing nonsense?"What?"She moved closer to him and gazed at his face. Was he sure of what he was saying at all?David knew it would be hard for everyone to believe. Collins had the most innocent face that concealed his darkest heart.He slipped his hand into his back pocket and brought out Jane's journal.He handed it over to her. Scarlet collected it. She wondered where he saw it. Thomas had given the journal to Jane as a birthday gif
