“Shyne! What are you doing there?!” Earl pulled me out of the fountain as my face got closer to the water. It was a good thing that only the tip of my hair was wet.

“Rose! Help me with Shyne!” I saw Rose, Earl’s sister who wore a blush pink dress the same as Izzy, came rushing over.

“Shyne?” Rose said as she held me.

“Rose, make sure Shyne is alright. I’ll call Alister or Izzy.” I pulled Earl’s hand before he could leave, and the two of them looked at me.

“No. Don’t call them. Please. I’m just so distracted by the fountain that I thought I saw something in the water. I didn’t realize I was getting too close. No need to worry.”

Rose and Earl looked like they didn’t believe me, so the entire night, Rose and Izzy were with me. Rose told Izzy, and later on, I told her about Alister a

    I looked at Brixton as the two of us stood near the cliff. Shock was all over my face, and Brixton just sighed. He pulled me farther from the cliff when he realized that I was not moving an inch out of shock.“Listen, Shyne, I know that it’s a confession that’s not supposed to be said after what happened to you here on the cliff, but…”“Brixton. You can’t love me. You-you shouldn’t love me…” I whispered.Brixton’s face turned sad, and his smile was gone. It was replaced by a frown, and his eyes showed the sadness inside. We were silent for a few seconds, but he held my right hand, and he gave me a half smile that was forced.“Shyne, I know that your situation with Rian and your family is complicated, but I also know that you feel something for me. I see it in our eyes and the way we fit together perfectly.”“Brixton, I can’t…I can’t do thi

    "Oh my God! What in blazes are you doing inside of my car?!" I hit my head on the window beside the driver's seat as I looked in shock at Alister.My brother laughed, and Izzy popped out from behind us while laughing her head off. I tried to calm myself down as I looked at the two of them back and forth."Are you two done laughing? Seriously! What if you guys made me have a heart attack, huh?!" I shoved Alister, and he just chuckled as he fixed his seatbelt, and so did Izzy at the back."Wait a minute, you two. Why are you fixing your seatbelts?" They looked at each other and stared at me in confusion."Well, Izzy and I don't want to die in case you hit the brake a little too hard. Come one, sis, didn't they teach y

    I tried to scream and kick the hand as I fell in the darkness. The hands that were holding my feet and covering my mouth were ice cold. I tried to open my eyes, but all I could see was darkness, and the silence was eerie. My hair was all around my face as I felt like the hands that were dragging me would never stop. The skin on my hands and feet felt like they were burning as I was dragged on what felt like asphalt. I suddenly stopped, and the hands on my face and legs disappeared. I was trembling with fear and confusion as I tried my best to shift to a crawling position. My entire body ached as I got up to a sitting position, and I tried to catch my breath while tears threatened to fall from my eyes. I looked around, and it was still pitch black. I tried to speak, but my voice trembled, and my throat felt like it was burning. I realized it was because of the sulfuric smell that was getting stronger. I coughed as the smell got stronger and stronger. “

    I couldn’t speak as he covered my mouth. The monster’s movements were harsh, and his clawed hands were roaming my body with so much force that I was scratched, bleeding, and in pain. I couldn’t think straight because of the pain, but I knew that he was right. I had to control my emotions, for me to be free to move.I tried to stop myself from screaming, and he noticed it, so he thrusted harder, faster, and deeper, and I screamed again in pain while he laughed. I screamed, but I used my scream to calm myself while I was being violated. I needed to be strong and control my emotions fast, before I lost myself in the darkness of pain and fear completely.“Trying to control your emotions, huh?” The monster laughed and grabbed my throat as he lifted me up by my throat. I felt like I was about to faint, but seeing his face for the first time made my skin crawl.The monster had black scales for skin

    "Don't look at me like you don't know me, you whore. You're the reason why my cousin Rian isn't with us anymore. You have the guts to go back to this town, but you don't have the guts to kill yourself after what happened to him because of your selfish doing?" I looked at the lady who wore a plain navy blue shirt, sexy shorts that looked like panties, and sneakers. Her taste is awful, but the way she spoke to me showed that her attitude was awful as well. Despite having nice fair skin, her pink and black hair, and her excessive accessories made me want to look the other way. "Excuse me, but I have no interest in picking a fight with someone like you, Anita," I looked at her as she glared at me, " you know nothing about us, and that includes the reason he's gone. So it's better for you to stop embarrassing yourself and leave me alone while you still haven't embarrassed yourself." The woman was Rian's younger cousin, and she was eighteen years old, if I'm no

    "Speak, Shyne! Your father is going to be furious when he hears about this!" I opened my mouth to try and speak, but the sound of a car rushing inside the house made me freeze again. It was hot outside, but the sound and sight of my father’s car made me believe I was in the middle of a snow storm because of the cold that I was feeling at the moment. "It's your father…" my mom said in a worried tone. She tried to position herself in a way that she somehow shielded me from my father’s view as the both of us took small steps backwards. I looked at the car that stopped in front of us a few meters away, and without missing a beat, my father got out of the car and his eyes were furious as he held my terrified gaze. He matched towards me, and all I could do was close my eyes

    “Are you sure that you want to throw all of this away?” Izzy asked as she helped me clear my mini library in my room where I had more than three hundred books. I looked at the book, and I felt a tingle of hurt in my heart with every book that we took down and put in the huge box. I looked at the sets of books that cost me thousands of dollars, and hundreds of hours just to read all of them. “Yeah, Izzy,” I said as I grabbed the set of Percy Jackson Books by Rick Riordan, and I could almost feel tears form in my eyes, “these books seem like they’re harmless, but I know in myself what they do to me, and I know how much these books affect me spiritually. I need to let go of these books and set myself free from myself and my addiction.” "Fine, but I still think that it's a waste sine you spent more than fifteen years collecting all of these books," she said as she arranged a few more books in

    I took a deep breath and I braced myself as the bed rocked back and forth a bit more aggressively. I didn't scream or call anyone, because at this point, all I felt was anger towards whatever force was making this bed move."Stop it…", I whispered as I gripped my sheets to try and balance myself, "I said stop it. I mean it."My lips were trembling and every hair on my body was standing. I felt my sweat drip from my forehead, and I took calm breaths. I needed to be strong, so I closed my eyes and jumped out of bed.I opened my eyes when I didn't feel the floor. Instead, I saw myself falling, and everything around me was pitch black. I tried to strain my eyes and see past the dark surroundings, but I couldn't do anything.

    I opened my eyes, and Brixton was beside me. I stared at Brixton while he looked up at the moon. The moon was so big, and the sky was like a blanket of stars. I loved this kind of view, and I smiled when I saw Brixton shifting his weight to reach for a grape near my hip. "Sly..." I whispered when he softly caressed my hip before pulling his hand back and eating his grape. He just chuckled. "Well, I try to not get caught, babe," he said and fed me the other grape that I gladly ate. We laughed and teased each other while we were sitting on the blanket at the bench in the middle of the night. It was our third anniversary as a couple, and it has been three years since I was finally released from the curse. "I can't believe that after all these years, you're still not allowed to go out with me without a chaperone," he wined when we heard laughter from the cottage in the distance. "You know my sister and my cousins are old maids who have no plan on getting hitched or getting into a rela

    "Shyne!" I screamed when I saw that my younger teenage self was about to jump on the cliff."No!" I reached her, and I was able to pull her backwards, and we both fell tot he ground, "Stop it, Shyne! You don't want to do this!" I said with tears forming in my eyes as I sat on her stomach and grabbed her hands so I could pin it to her sides as I used both my legs to lock her legs in place."I'm tired!" She screamed, "I'm tired! I'm tired! I'm tired! I'm tired!" She screamed over and over again as loud as she could while her tears dropped like rain on the sides of her face.My heart began to hurt, and my tears fell on her cheeks as I looked down on her and gave more effort in holding her down with all my force and weight. I felt like there was an iron rod being plunged down my throat and through my heart. It was mortifying to think that this situation is happening, and it's even more unnerving since I know that this is a dream and yet it feels too real."Let go of me! Now!" She screamed

    "Shyne, this is not some sort of voodoo thing that you see in the movies. You don't just go and pray the same thing and then you get transported into another dimension or something," The pastors told me, "When we go deeper in prayer, you go deeper in your relationship with God. This won't work unless your sincerity and focus is on point. You need to surrender, and make sure that you are doing this for your desire to grow in faith and be free from your past mistakes." "I understand," I answered, and I gave all of them a smile.” After I had that weird vision last time, I was able to make peace with my past. But I know that it was also some sort of warning for me. I needed to get through this life, and my past was one of the distractions that could hinder me. I realized that though I made peace with Rian in my mind, I needed to make sure that I made peace with him in my spirit and make peace with myself as well." After the vision that I had last time, it was explained to me by the pasto

    I opened my eyes and saw that I was at a crossroad again. However, the two dirt roads were very different. Both were roads that served as dirt bridges that led to two similar looking castles. Below was a drop to a dark abyss."Calm down, Shyne," I told myself as I took deep breaths multiple times.I tried to swallow the fear that I felt, and I tried to remind myself that this was all a dream or a vision, or something. Whatever it was, it wasn't real.The chill I felt was more intense than the ones I've felt before. The scenery I was seeing even felt more real than the previous ones I've seen in my nightmares. The left side of the road was wide and inviting, and the right was narrow and looked like it was impossible to cross."Ms. Shyne," I looked up, looked around, and no one was there. I looked behind me, and no one was there either. I looked back at the two roads, and I screamed.Two men stood on either entrance. They weren't there before, but I guess I shouldn't be too shocked. I tr

    My phone has been ringing nonstop the entire morning, and with a very annoyed sigh, I decided to wake up from my sleep. I looked at my phone as another missed call was registered on my phone, and I saw that it was Brixton who was calling me. An unexplainable emotion began to claw at the back of my head, and I could feel tears swell up from my eyes. I checked my phone some more, and I saw that it was the fifth time that he called. I guess I was so tired from what happened yesterday that I failed to wake up from the first four rings. As the phone rang again for the sixth time, I took a deep and shaky breath to calm my nerves, and decided to take on the challenge and answered his call. "Hello?" I asked in a more stable voice. I silently smiled a bit at the shaky breath that Brixton took. He probably didn't think that I would actually decide to entertain his calls. "S-Shyne, uhh, hey, how are you?" He asked in an unsure tone, "I have a meeting a few blocks from your school. M-maybe you

    "Shyne!" I fell to the ground, and a heavy body was on top of me. I groaned in pain when my head hit the floor a bit hard. "Oh my God!" There were different voices around me, but my eyes were still closed. I knew the voices, but the hit on my head was a bit hard, and I still had tears in my eyes, so I just felt like closing them. The voices were still talking, and I felt someone pull me into a sitting position, and the heavy person on top of me pulled me into a tight hug. I felt the big arms wrap around my shoulder, and my face was pressed on his chest. I hugged him back and I let my tears fall. I cried silently as my tears soaked his shirt. "Shyne, shh..." the guy said, and he gave me one more squeeze before letting me go and holding my face as he wiped my tears. I looked at the guy, and it was James, one of my four best friends in Law School. I looked to my side and I realized that Kimmy, Joyce and Loki were looking at me with worried faces. "Hey," James said, and he slowly help

    "So, you're going back to law school, and you won't even be going to tell mom or dad?" Alister asked as the three of us ate dinner.It was the first time in a while that me and my two siblings ate together without any one of us rushing to a meeting or school, or even bickering. We were just calmly eating and making small talk.I looked up at him, and I realized that he was indeed a grown up now. I nodded, and he just raised his eyebrows at me before shrugging and eating some more."You guys are boring," Izzy said as she took another bite of her fried chicken, "I was usually the boring one, but by the look on both your faces, I'd say I'm the most interesting one among the three of us." She said in a bored way.I smiled at her silliness. She was right. Me and Alister used to be the fun and active ones even when our parents were present. Izzy was always the one on the sidelines. However, I guess the family pressure and family business took over and we all just became sort of gray."Sis,"

    I blinked, and my dad was no longer there. However, I looked at the door as it broke down and fell to the ground while the furniture I used to block it was harshly pushed to the side. I realized that there were at least five people outside of my room, and the first one inside was my mother. "Shyne!" She ran to me and gave me a bone crushing hug and inspected me. She was saying something, but I couldn't hear or understand her. I felt like I was numb, and I was just sitting up and looking at her while she touched my face, looked at my arms, and I realized that she had tears falling from her eyes and rolling down her cheek. I looked to the side and I saw Perry and Izzy sitting beside me on either side a foot away. It was as if they were stopping themselves from crowding me since my mom was still talking. She was saying things that I didn't understand. I was so sleepy, and I felt like my body was getting weaker and weaker. Black. everything turned black, and I could hear worried screams

    My tears fell as I rocked myself back and forth while my mother and father were fighting again outside of my room. I locked myself inside my room, and knocked down one of the shelves to make sure they would not be able to open the door. I closed my eyes as I recalled how much anger was in my dad's eyes. Before he reached me, my mom was able to tackle him to the ground, and in a split second after my mom's eyes and my eyes met, I dashed back to the house and ran quickly in my room. I opened my eyes when a familiar sticky scent engulfed my nostrils. I remembered that scent, and I didn't like what happened everytime that scent was around. It was Rian's scenet mixed with his own scent after we had sex in the past. It was sticky and sweet, and it was as if our bodies were mixed with his body spray. I suppressed my sudden urge to vomit at the thought of his presence appearing again. I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself down. I took deep breaths as the room became colder and colde
