Anna struggled to pull Zach up, her muscles trembling with the effort as she dragged his limp body toward the car. Just when she thought she'd collapse, a masked man stepped out of the vehicle, his movements swift yet deliberate. Without a word, he grabbed Zach's other arm, and together, they lifted him into the back seat. Anna quickly slipped in beside Zach, her heart pounding in her chest.The masked man took the driver’s seat and, without hesitation, floored the gas pedal. The car zoomed forward, its tires screeching on the asphalt."We need to get to the hospital. Fast," Anna urged, her voice edged with panic.“That’s exactly where we’re heading,” the man replied, his tone calm but firm.Anna squinted, her nerves taut, unsure of who this stranger was. Her mind raced with questions. As she bit her lip, she finally gave in to curiosity. “Who...who are you?” she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.The man reached up, tugging at the mask. As it came off, Anna’s breath caught in h

I looked at Chris, then at the men. Their expressions were clear—I could see fear etched on their faces. It was ironic, really. A short while ago, these same men had danced around me in mockery, taunting me, laughing as if I were a joke. Now, I stood there, watching them tremble in fear. The power shift was overwhelming. I didn’t want them to drop dead like they were cursed, but the thought crossed my mind. What if? What if they fell? What if I could make them pay for how they humiliated me? I clenched my fists, lowering my head to avoid their eyes. The heaviness of Chris’s presence lingered, but I kept my silence. I couldn’t let myself be consumed by the moment, no matter how tempting it was. Chris’s eyes stayed on me, unwavering. “Come on, Audrey, don’t be scared. I promise they won’t hurt you. Just tell me what happened.” His words were calm, but I knew better. There was a tension there, a coiled spring waiting to snap. I could feel it in the air. The others could feel it to

Audrey raised her trembling hands in defense as Chris's grip tightened around her throat. The cold muzzle of the gun pressed hard against her temple, sending waves of fear through her entire body.“Chris... please... let me go,” Audrey pleaded, her voice barely above a whisper. Her eyes searched his, desperate for the man she once knew, but all she found was rage.Chris's lip curled into a sneer. “Shut up, you ungrateful bitch!” His voice cracked with fury. “After everything I did for you... this is how you repay me? I killed for you, Audrey. I killed!” His grip tightened, making it harder for her to breathe.Audrey's heart pounded in her chest as the weight of his words sank in. The Chris she knew was gone, replaced by someone she barely recognized.“Stop this, Chris!” Zach’s voice echoed. He stepped forward cautiously, hands raised in a gesture of peace. “Just let her go.”Chris laughed—a harsh, cruel sound. “Let her go? You think it’s that simple? Shut up, Zach! One more word, and

Never mind; she’s just a child, I thought, trying to brush off the weight of the moment.I stood up, still in shock from the recent events swirling in my mind. With shaky breaths, I walked to catch up with Zach, my heart thumping loudly in my chest. As I walked, I admired the internal structure of the house around me. The chandeliers hung like sparkling stars, casting soft light that danced across the walls. They were beautiful—there were so many of them, each unique in its design, shimmering like jewels. The house was massive and wide, a labyrinth of rooms and hallways that seemed to stretch on forever, filled with the echoes of laughter and memories yet to be made.Finally, I caught up to them—Anna, Zach, Jake, and his adorable daughter, Chloe, who seemed to harbor a deep-seated resentment toward me. The air around us felt heavy, charged with the unspoken tension between Chloe and me.When I arrived, chloe turned and glared at me, her little face twisted in contempt, a fierce expres

The next morning, I woke up feeling refreshed. For the first time in what felt like ages, I wasn't weighed down by the usual stress and uncertainty that had plagued me for weeks. I blinked a few times, adjusting to the light that poured in through the curtains. The soft rays of the golden sun reflected on my face, warming my skin gently. I yawned deeply as I stretched my arms overhead, feeling the pleasant pull in my muscles. It was a small, ordinary morning stretch, but something about today felt different.For a moment, I lay still, enjoying the sense of calm that enveloped me. It was as if a heavy burden had been lifted from my chest overnight. The usual tightness I felt around my heart, the constant buzz of anxious thoughts, seemed quieter today. It was a rare moment of peace—one that I hadn’t experienced in a while. The world outside my window seemed peaceful too. The birds chirped softly in the distance, their melodies blending with the rustling leaves in the morning breeze. The
