Darktruths Stories

Keifer learned early that silence could be loud. It was the kind of night that should have been ordinary-no storms, no warnings, no signs that a life was about to split in two. The house was dim, the air heavy with words that had already been said too many times. His mother had spoken softly. His father had not. Keifer was sixteen. Old enough to understand fear. Too young to understand why love could turn violent. He remembers the sound most. Not the scream. Not the chaos. But the moment after. The unbearable quiet that followed-thick, choking, permanent. His father's voice trembled as if regret could undo what had already been done. His mother lay still, eyes open, staring past everything she had loved. And Keifer stood frozen in the doorway, unable to move, unable to breathe, watching the world take something it would never return. In that moment, childhood ended. Responsibility arrived like a sentence. There was no time to grieve. No space to fall apart. By morning, the house needed managing. Bills needed paying. Doors needed locking. A family needed a man-and somehow, that man became him. Keifer buried the boy he was alongside the woman he loved most. Years later, people would call him strong. Reliable. Cold. They would never know that strength was not a choice-it was survival. And then, one day, long after the blood had been scrubbed from the floor and the memory locked behind his ribs, Jay would walk into his life with laughter in her voice and freedom in her steps. She would not know it yet. But loving her would be the most dangerous thing he would ever do. ---

- For anyone who's ever faked their smile, one too many times.- I stand there in the middle of the grey room, my hands are shaking, my head is spinning, and my body moves on its own. I did it. I finally did what he deserved. But it doesn't matter. Not anymore, not when I've lost her. Mom's gone. I saw the bullet go right through her head, splitting through her skin and skull. I watched as her brain spilled out to the ground. I watched her body fall, eyes dead and unmoving. I closed them for her, while Agnes cried. Yet, I stand there, gun in hand, blood dripping from my small fingers, clothes bloodied. Ah, Mum would scold me if she saw I got my clothes dirty, but she's not here to do that anymore. His body lies there utterly still. Bullets go wildly in his face, one through his cheek, another through his mouth, another between his eyes. Good. He's dead. My name is Aurelia Asherford, and my biggest weapon is my smile. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We wear our masks, hiding the blood that stains our souls.🩸🔪❤️ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
