For any of the café visitors of that sunny evening, the two figures who were sitting silently at a table—not uttering any word or not even moving except subtle movements—look like a living mannequin, brilliantly elegant in addition of their highlighted features due to the ray of sunlight. Suddenly one of the figures—with a long silky hair and slanted eyes—who’s actually none other than Inspector Carl Heinz raised one of his hand to shield himself from the burning sun. “Ugh…” He softly moaned. “Remind me again why we chose this kind of place?” Nathan—who’s sitting in front of Carl—cleared his throat. “I’m very sorry for burdening you, but we couldn’t really let ourselves be seen in public. Her eyes are everywhere.” Nathan said before darting his eyes to the endless flow of customers of the café. Not too far from him, a group of people were seen having some idle chat with each other. Though he doubt it they were simply just hanging out. After all, what kind of

(Asher’s POV) “Son, long time no see!” My mother exclaimed from afar as she sashayed near the table where I sat. At a glance, you can never tell that she’s my mother based on her youthful looks and strong personality. With jet black hair and eyes the color of fury amber, anyone who glanced at her will found themselves entranced, but ladies and gentlemen, she is my mother, so mind your own business. She blew a sigh and fanned her light brown button up shirt as she sat down on the chair across me. Putting her outer coat on the chair beside her, she crossed her legs and shifted her seat to face me straight. Then, she bloomed a wide, happy grin, the one I loved seeing forming on her face. “Long time no see, mom.” I gently replied. With all the depressing things happening around me, I forgot that I have this ray of sunshine still by my side. The one who supports me from the sidelines, the one who secretly cheers for me throughout my life, and the one who tries her

(Asher’s POV) I was woken up when I choked my breath. That, was what I initially thought but common sense betray me here in The Flesh, when what I actually choked was blood which had gotten inside my mouth when I found myself almost drowned in a huge lake of blood. Luckily, the lake is much shallow than it look. I turned to my surrounding to see the level of blood is just below my knee when I stood up. But still, my clothes are drenched in blood, which I’m convinced will surprise my mother when I got back to the real world. IF, I managed to get back there. For one more time, I darted my eyes to the new surrounding of The Flesh. This time is a bit different than the last time, where I stood in a cavernous place—the interior is still fleshy red—but instead of damp, soft and dry ground, the ground I’m stepping on is flooded with blood until as far as my eyes can see. I squinted my eyes to perceive my surroundings. While in constant confusion, I h

(Elaine’s POV) Even in death, I guess it’s unavoidable to dream your last dream. As my body limped from the amount of blood I lost, the sight of my detached tongue—cold and stiff on the surface of the bed—was the last thing I saw before my eyes closed. The darkness continued until I mysteriously heard a familiar voice near me. Silence filled my ears again after that last desperate call, then it appeared, this time right beside me. I felt something warm engulfing me, something I don’t even know but I feel safe in it. Is this what death feels like? If so, why didn’t I think of dying sooner? It’s better dying than living, it’s better to end this suffering than constantly getting trapped in it. “You’re beautiful…” My heart jumped in elation from that single sentence. I tried to look for the person who said those cherishing words to me, but apart from the unclear red view I’m seeing, the person’s face is blurry. It’

(Asher’s POV) I don’t know whether to be impressed, or horrified. A few days ago, I was eating with my beloved mother, and due to my lack of tact and preparation, I was summoned to The Flesh, involuntarily. That’s not the worst part, to be honest. After my victory inside the new environment of The Flesh, I, was teleported back to the real world, drenched in blood, and inside the communal toilet where people can go in and out freely. You might be able to guess what happens after that. The staffs of the restaurant looking horrified? Absolutely. My mother looking horrified? Well… Of course. That’s where me getting grounded in the main house started. Luckily it was just for the whole weekend, and I understand why my mother did all of this. Particularly triggered by the stench of blood—which probably triggered the traumatizing memory of the death of her husband—my mother, worried and frightened at the same time, want me to stay close to her so I am not los

(Elaine’s POV) I was shocked when I saw the image of my lucid dream. I was in a cavernous membrane, with blood gushing through it’s punctured walls. My breath hastened when I realized the space I’m in has it’s floor almost entirely flooded with the dark red blood. I groaned in panic and gasped my breath as I dragged myself to the nearest hole and tried to close it with my hands. The blood sprayed to my body and face. I was not in a condition to think about myself, whether I am in a dream or not, or whether I am naked, or even whether I’m still alive in this nightmare I just created to resent myself. Although I prayed to God for death, the emotions I felt is fear, great fear. “W…What is happening…?” I began to weep. “Where is everyone-” I choked on my wailing voice as I looked to the empty view behind me. No one. No one will be able to help. No one wouldn’t even dare to help me. I’m all alone in this frightful place, dying from

Elaine Elaine was trembling from head to toe after the maid—who addressed herself as Mia—tended to her and asked her to rest inside a room Mia said is specially prepared for Elaine by the Madame. That being said, the ‘tending’ part instilled horror in Elaine’s weak heart. Right after Mia said about her assisting Elaine’s bath, Elaine was immediately pulled away—abducted, to be precise. The two of them stepped farther from the room Elaine had left and began their journey, entering one corner to another, passing through several living rooms and resting area, pacing through a huge main hall, entering another corner until they found a door. After that, was where she introduced herself, curtly, as her thin pair of hands flung the towering door open effortlessly and let Elaine in. The first part of her nightmare began with Mia swiftly undressing her while ignoring her “Master’s” frantic flailing and wails. Then, although the bath tub is big and filled with warm bat

(Asher’s POV) The night I spent sleeping on the same bed as Elaine felt peaceful albeit short. Morning came, which means the biological clock inside me—which I’ve practiced since the repetitive rounds—woke me up from my sleep. I was about to bask myself in staring at Elaine’s sleeping face when her disappearance completely shook me up from my daze. “Elaine?” My voice croaked in panic. Ignoring the utter darkness, I tried to fumble the bed until the edge and even checked the floor to see whether she’s there or not. Where did she go? Don’t tell me she committed another suicide? But I didn’t hear any suicidal thoughts of whispers, so where… “Good morning, Master.” A slightly thin yet masculine voice entered my ears, startled me for a moment, before I creased my brows and heaved a tired sigh. I sat crossing my legs on the bed and rubbed my face. “Good morning to you too… Ezra.” My eyes leered from one corner of my room to another. Like a ghost, Ezra’s tal

Elaine Based on the appearance of the long hair rolling on her back—shining black and is layer cut—and her amber eyes that glinted a tinge of gold when it shines, an image of the madam whom she saw last night entered her mind. Elaine’s mouth gaped for a bit in quick realization. The woman—who’s sitting on the chair adjacent to her—grinned. “Greetings Elaine. I’m sorry for not introducing myself last night.” She shifted her seat a bit and pt her hand on her chest. “My name is Rhea Ildian, Asher’s mother.” Elaine slowly nodded her head, still astounded. In her view, Madam Rhea looked almost androgynous. Although her hair is long and her face amazingly beatiful, the woman in front of her emits an aura of both a mother and a father, somehow, that Elaine couldn’t help but to be in awe. “Alright, Elaine.” Madam Rhea shifted her seat before she suddenly paused halfway. “I can call you Elaine, right?” Elaine nodded, even though she couldn’t ev

(Asher’s POV) By the time I finished my jog and also took a shower, Elaine and my mother were still conversing about something. I don’t want to interrupt them because it sounded serious, so I put on my sleeveless brown top paired with black denim pants to go have breakfast outside. While it’s true they’re conversing in the dining hall, I can’t just cross the dining hall to the kitchen to take my breakfast and walk past them like “Howdy y’all?” And pulled a straight face after expecting their disturbed and worried faces. I was now on my way to the entrance of the mansion. To be honest, I don’t have fond memories of this mansion. No, it’s not about my dead father or my trauma, it’s simply because this mansion stood covering about 4 hectares of land. It’s that big that I have made up my mind to scram from this house. Because imagine this. You want to go too school. Let’s say on a particular day, you’re getting late, so you really have to hurry to school
