Demika arrives at Chloe’s residence unannounced, her heart pounding with anxiety. The grand, gothic mansion looms before her, its spires piercing the sky like the talons of a beast. Chloe greets her at the door, her eyes lighting up with excitement. They embrace warmly, their affection for each other palpable in the way they linger in each other’s arms. She embraces Demika, their soft kiss lingering just a moment longer than necessary. They exchange further pleasantries, but the weight of Demika’s burden quickly dampens the mood. She asks after Valentine, and Chloe reveals that he has been locked in his room for days, wallowing in a misery that borders on despair.

"Valentine hasn’t left his room in days," Chloe says as they walk into the chandelier-lit sitting room. "He’s been... different since that night."

Demika nods, guilt gnawing at her. She knows exactly why Valentine has been in such a state—the reason for his torment. She had cast a blocking spell on Selena to prevent Valentine

    In the dim, brooding atmosphere of his private study, Dr. Percy sits hunched over a weathered tome, his mind adrift in the labyrinth of secrets he has kept locked away for years. The scent of old parchment and the faint flicker of candlelight do little to ease the tension that has built up in the room like a dense fog. The walls, lined with ancient texts and relics from a world long forgotten, seem to close in on him, as if conspiring to unearth the dark truths he has buried deep within his soul.

    Dr. Percy turns sharply, his patience fraying at the edges. "Enough, Chloe!" he snaps, his voice like a whip crack in the tense air. "You have no idea what you’re meddling with. There are forces at play here that you cannot begin to comprehend."Chloe steps back, more out of shock than fear. Her father’s outburst is uncharacteristic, but it only strengthens her resolve. "Then explain it to me. I deserve to know the truth—about you, about that creature, about everything."Dr. Percy’s mind races, calculating the potential fallout of revealing what he has kept hidden for so long. He knows Chloe’s determination is unyielding, but he also knows that the truth could destroy them—or worse, draw them into the darkness he has fought to keep at bay."You don’t understand," he begins, his voice softer now, almost pleading. "The creature you speak of… it’s not just a mindless beast. It’s a creation, an abomination borne of forbidden knowledge and twisted ambition. It’s tied to a power far greater

    Dr. Percy sits alone in his dimly lit study, the air thick with the scent of aged parchment and candle wax. The room, a shrine to history, is lined with ancient tomes, maps of old battlefields, and relics of a time long past. The fire crackles softly in the hearth, casting flickering shadows that dance like ghosts on the walls. Valentine and Chloe’s departure leave a lingering tension in the air, but their presence is quickly overshadowed by the resurgence of memories long buried beneath centuries of blood and ash.His hands tremble slightly as he holds an old, worn dagger—its hilt adorned with runes of protection, a relic from a life he once led as a mortal. The blade, stained with the blood of countless foes, still gleams with a dark, almost malevolent sheen.

    A few years later, in the midst of this desolation, Percy encountered Maria—a woman on the brink of death, savagely assaulted and teetering on the edge of oblivion. Desperation shone in her eyes as she begged Percy to transform her, to grant her the power to exact vengeance upon those who had wronged her. Reluctantly, he complied, and Maria unleashed her fury with a bloodlust that terrified even him. She hunted down her tormentors with a gruesome pleasure, reveling in their demise. Yet, when the last drop of their blood had been spilled, she found herself hollow, devoid of purpose.Driven by a need to repay her perceived debt, Maria insisted on staying by Percy’s side. Despite his protests, she vowed to be a mother to the twins, who had been left without one. The children, barely five years old, were easily convinced that Maria was their long-lost mother, returned from her travels to reclaim them. And so, they began anew as a family, forging a semblance of completeness that had eluded

There’s no warmth in his eyes, no relief at her presence—only a cold, distant anger that makes her heart clench with fear.“Wilson…” she begins, her voice tentative, trying to gauge his mood. But he cuts her off with a sharp wave of his hand.“I don’t want to talk about it, Selena,” he says, his voice flat, devoid of the love that once colored every word he spoke to her. “I can’t even look at you right now.”Selena flinches as if he’s struck her.

Selena’s voice reaches her ears, carrying both worry and curiosity."Demi… Demika," Selena says, pushing the door open and stepping inside. She stops, eyes widening as she takes in her friend, studying her with a blend of disbelief and awe. “You look... different.”A faint smirk tugs at the corner of Demika’s lips. “I am different,” she says quietly, her voice carrying an edge of something ancient, something foreign. “You have no idea.”Selena glances over her shoulder as Chloe enters, her expression one of

    Loneliness is a silent architect, building castles of solitude in the minds of those who wander without tether. Identity is a dance of masks, but in crisis, the mask slips, revealing not clarity but a fog, as if one were peering through glass, shattered and smeared. However, to lose oneself is not to wander; it is to walk through a foreclosure of one’s own soul, each familiar landmark of self closing its doors with a hollow thud. But solitude is the truest mirror, a place where whispers echo louder than the clamors of a crowd, where silence is the only faithful companion. In the heart’s quiet corridors, the comfort of isolation mingles with a cold draft of longing, one that no borrowed company can fill. Like a shadow dancing in one’s periphery, a fractured sense of belonging haunts the fringes of an empty room. And yet, perhaps loneliness is the sculptor, and solitude the chisel, whittling away the superfluous to reveal the form beneath. Some seek company to escape it; others confro

The assignment is deceptively simple, yet Jason knows the fine line he walks: one misstep, one hint of calculation, and her walls will go up.She arrives just past midnight, her silhouette framed by the streetlight outside before stepping into the flickering glow of his candlelit living room.
