Detective prodigy Elucel Klein wasn't like any other detective; he was young, cunning, intelligent, and wise - gaining him a reputation no detective before him ever had. Die-hard mystery fan Aurum Cinder has been waiting all her life for a mystery - one that would make her wrack her brain for answers, one that would put her mystery novel knowledge to the test. Milirian Yard intern Wynstonne Yovelski is a skilled hacker with a goal to piss the hell out of a certain detective named Elucel. Chief Inspector Callister Venere, a man known to have climbed up the rankings faster than anyone before him, has been looking for some thrill in his life full of bland, boring cases. When a series of oddly executed murders - from victims being buried alive to a student hanging from a flagpole - rocks the school's foundation, the four - Elucel, Aurum, Wynstonne, and Callister - were bounded by fate to walk down the same path and solve the case and the reason to all the murders succeeding it.

THANK YOU, Wattpad, for the HQ Love Watty Award! Concept: A mysterious young woman flees from her troubled past only to discover it is impossible to escape THE SECRET that haunts her. *PLEASE NOTE: This story was originally inspired by the movie "Sleeping With the Enemy". * * * * * "I would never, Steven," she promised, turning away from him in an attempt to protect herself. "I know you wouldn't," he screamed. Cupping her chin in his hand, he forced her to look at him. "Because I would kill you." His words hung heavy in the air. Sarah's heart sank into her stomach. No matter how many times she'd heard the menacing phrase, she could never get used to it. It had the same affect on her as the first time he'd thrown the ugly words in her face. The familiar sting of bile rose in her throat, and she knew she would deplete the contents of her stomach once she was locked in the safety of their master bath. 'If I make it through this time,' she agonized. Her biggest fear was that one day he would really lose his temper with her. Who knew what would happen then? *This story is an unedited first draft. Top Ranks: Action #1, Mystery and Thriller #1 *This story contains scenes of abuse and may be disturbing to some readers.
