AUTHOR'S NOTE: Guys this chapter will be longer than usual because there is a lot more detail and it's contains alot of gruesome details(I blame it on watching too much horror movies). Be warned.
Ana, Lea, Flora and Kyle walk up to me. They look as shocked as I am by Jesse's sudden outburst, he's usually so reserved.
Are you ok? They all ask at once.
Yes I'm fine I just gotta go. I'll talk to you guys later.
I hug them all and walk to the car.
I step into the back of the car and my phone buzzes. I take it out and I see I have two messages and five missed calls. Aunt Claire speeds off without so much as a word.
I decide to open the one from the unknown number first then I'll open Aunt Claire's seeing is she's sitting right infront of me.Skylar I'm sorry about my outburst, can we just forget about it? -Jesse.
I'll be there to pick you up around three I have a few errands to run. -Claire.
Aunt Claire, I thought you said you're going to pick me up at three, it's only 2:45 now. I say.
She will, I still have time to bring you back.
My heart stops. William. How could I have been so distracted that I didn't even realise it.
What do you want? My voice failing me. I clear my throat.
He laughs humourlessly.
My dear Skylar, why did you tell everyone about our little encounter a few years back? Now you have Jaydon questioning my every move even after I set him on a false trail.
He stops by an abandoned house. It looks like the old mortuary house. The first floor was a torture room where all people who raped and kill someone would be torture to death then underground was the mortuary. My mom used to tell me about all the people sent here, since she was the one who sent them here, but after a while people saw it wasn't a good way to kill people, it was inhumane so they closed it down.
What are we doing here William. I said but my voice failing me.
Just a little something I want to show you. He says looking into the review mirror giving me a devilish smile.
I can feel the fear coursing through my veins because I can't seem to stop my hands from shaking.
No thanks, I'm fine here. Matter of fact take me back to school Aunt Claire will be there any moment now. I say trying to put up a poker face as if I don't care.
Skylar, that's where you're mistaken. I wasn't asking you for your permission, I'm telling you. And you will come in with me or what, should I ask Jaydon to join me later? Maybe try a few things in there. He laughs at that sinister thought. You know he'll believe anything I tell him, he did after all believe you are the murderer between the two of us.
He turns and looks at me smiling. My heart sinks at his words. We stay in silence, none of us breaking it. My phone rings making me jump. It's Aunt Claire. I check the dashboard and it's three o'clock. I smirk at William.
I'm afraid your time is up William, now take me back and we can forget all about this. My smirk grows.
He smiles at me.
My dear child. My time is up when I say it is. You'll answer that phone and tell Claire that you're out with your friends and that you'll be back later.My heart stops. There is no way out of this, if there is then Jaydon gets hurt. I don't even know why I'm taking so long because the decision is already made.
I pick up my phone.
