And after receiving a slap from my Mama, I was asked to do a lot of house chores.When I completely sobered up was when I realized that the reason why my parents are annoyed is as a result of the fact that I woke up at half past nine. 'Good one Scarlett. Keep getting yourself in trouble.' I mumble within myself before eventually continuing my chores.My Mama has given me an offer that I shouldn't eat until tomorrow, and currently, I don't plan on going against her order."So what exactly made you wake up by this time today?" Addison asked.He's currently in the kitchen dishing his lunch.My Mom, Dad, and likewise my baby sister have all had lunch except for Addison.Well! I didn't plan on eating anything so I'm all good."The usual," I mumble, as I continue to watch the dirty dishes.I do tell my brother about the guy I usually see in my dream, and my brother is the one who has urged me to try to speak up whenever I see the person.It's crazy that my brother doesn't see me as a crazy
"You are going to go to your husband's house today." My Mama said, with a hoarse voice."Huh?" I asked while sitting down properly on the bed.It's nice that my Mom didn't use water to wake me up today, but I'm having a feeling that I woke up late."You heard me, Scarlett. Pack your things and get ready, because you are leaving this house today, for I'm tired of your useless bullshit." She yelled, before turning around to leave.It amazes me to see Ashley inside my dungeon, and not to mention the fact that she has never visited this place for like forever.My Dad also followed my mom out of the basement and I'm left with just Ashely and Addison."I'm going to miss you, Scarlett!" Ashely mumbled.My heart skipped a bit, because of what I heard her say. "Nah! I won't miss you at all, and I also don't mind if you find death wherever you are going!" Ashley added. Well! This sounds more like her."Ashley!" Addison called out the name of my younger sister with a hoarse voice."What? Don't p
After I have successfully offloaded all my belongings... My parents waved at me and drove off.'Just like that!'"Good evening sir." I greeted my husband whose name I no longer remember."Ohh, honey! Please just call me with any pet name of your choice okay. I don't mind at all." He said while smiling wide at me.If only he's aware that the pet name which I have in store for him is none other than 'Jerk!'"Alright!" I mumble, not wanting to get in trouble.He helped me to carry my belongings inside his house, and then I figured out that he has a lot of visitors in the sitting room."Guy's! This is Scarlett, my wife." He said to introduce me to his visitors.I felt like an individual who has just been thrown into a lion's den.I forced a smile and waved them slightly. What else can I do if not waving?"Alright! Go and freshen up because I know you must be exhausted from the long trip." My..... Well! my husband said.I don't know why he's being kind to me, but for now, I'll just play al
"Get her!" Mr. Jerk yelled, causing all his friends to quickly get their asses up from where they were sitting, as they made their way towards me.Without thinking twice, I ran towards the room and quickly shut the wooden door."Open it, young lady!" They all yelled in unison.I dare not open it. I'm not even stupid to think about opening the door to embrace my death.They kept on hitting the door, and if I don't do something quickly... Then the door would open.I use all the strength left in me to push the dirty bed with its wooden stand towards the door, at least it can buy me some more time.The thing is I can't stand like this forever, and suddenly..... My eyes landed on the window.I didn't bother to grab any of my belongings as I slowly opened the old wooden window.Everything in this man's house is old and mostly made of wood.When I'm successful in opening the window, I don't care to look at what's on the floor before jumping out the window, which causes me to step on a nail.
"Arrhhhh" I screamed, but couldn't pull away from the skeleton.Right in front of my eyes, I saw the skeleton having flesh.I mean real-life flesh.I tried pushing him away but still to no avail.My blood was all drained. Well! This is it.Even though I told myself I don't mind getting killed by wild animals..... The truth is I lied.Getting killed by a wild animal isn't a death I wish for, and now..... A skeleton is trying to kill me.I know that if I die then legend would have it that there was a girl who ran into the woods and got bitten by a skeleton.Perhaps! Who knows, my head might eventually end up in a museum.Is my death worth it?The hot stream of tears flowed down from my eyes as I finally gave up.Giving up the ghost isn't a bad thing I guess..... Besides, I can finally leave this miserable Earth that's filled with wicked humans.Even though my eyes are still closed, I didn't die.'Is my spirit not supposed to leave my body already?' I asked myself and couldn't answer.Sl
"Ohh!" I mumble, before nodding my head."Still! I'm sorry for scaring the shit out of you." He apologizes once more.I remain quiet, not knowing what else to say.Besides, aside from my brother Addison, no one gives a shit about manners when they are close to me, so I'm already used to it."Do you always apologize?" I find myself asking."No. I don't know why I'm apologizing to you." He stated."Ohh. So what now?" I asked since I don't know what else to do or say."You..... You would have to go back to your parents, or if you prefer you can just go back to your husband, by the time the sun kisses the sky." He stuttered."And how did you know that I'm married?" I asked because I can't remember myself telling him that."I know a lot of things about you. Just the same way I know that your name is Harper." He replied, which made me recall the fact that I have dealt with the weird name he had given to me."Alright. I want to make one thing straight. My name is Scarlett, and not Harper oka
As I was about to jump out of the window, I suddenly heard Orlan's voice."Boom!" He shouted, with a deep voice that made my heart jump out of my chest.I freak out and find myself falling backward."Were you trying to run?" He asked, and it seems that he was amused about what had just happened to me."Did you always do that?" I asked while placing my hands on my chest, to stable my breathing."I don't. I just find it amusing to do that around you." He uttered, which caused me to arch my brows. "I mean doing that around you just feels normal." He tries to explain himself."Why didn't you use the door?" I asked him because I was expecting him to use the door."I don't know!" Came his reply. "Do you still want to leave or do you care to have lunch?""I want to leave." I declare, before making my way towards the door.I'm expecting him to stop me but he didn't.I held the door handle, holding my breath as I waited for him to stop me but he still didn't.I turn around and gaze at him.Did
Orlan Titan POVWhen she opens the coffin.I felt alive, but not fully alive.I had the urge to drink something...... which is non other than blood.Harper. She was the first person I set my lifeless eyes on, and I had to bite.I need blood or else I'm not and never going to make it.To her, I know that it all happened all of a sudden, but I have planned everything out.I knew from the time she was born till the time she died.Yeah. I haven't figured out what exactly made her come back to life, but it's never too late.I place my mouth on her neck, and then I suck her blood.Her blood was just something different entirely.It was sweet and different.I found myself drinking more than I had imagined, and when I saw her passing out...I pulled away.I have long known that she's human, but I have also tasted other humans' blood and there's none like hers.I teleported her inside the old hut, and then I decided to clean some trash.The reason why it has been raining earlier is that I could
