LIfe isn't always what you expect, and never is it fair. To Ember Krossford, this statement has always been her motto, a phrase to cling to when the unexpected came to pass, no matter what kind of 'unexpected' that might be. Now, faced with the dying will of an estranged aunt she's never met and the house said will demands she inherit, things don't look like they could get any more unexpected. On her own and struggling to remain in college, Ember decides to take a chance on this house. But with unexplainable sounds, sketchy neighbors and nobody to turn to when push comes to shove, is this simply an unexpected twist of events, or is something darker at play?

"They all wore masks." Diana is a psychology major, an orphan with too many memories and not enough peace. One night after a party, she vanishes, taken by strangers who live in a house beyond the cemetery, where the doors only lock from the outside. But Diana refuses to break. She learns their patterns, their pain. She disarms them one by one-first with her mind, then with blood. This is not a story about healing. It's a survival story. About what's left after the chains fall off. And the truth? Not all monsters wear masks.

His mistress

35 parts Complete

Loving him was the cruelest kind of torment-a love that lived in the shadows, one that could never bask in the warmth of the sun. I was nothing more than a stolen moment, a whispered name in the dark, a secret he tucked away between the life he had built and the one he wished he could have. I knew, deep down, that I was a fracture in his story, a fleeting escape from the weight of his reality. And yet, I still clung to him, to the illusion that for a few precious hours, he was mine. But the truth was relentless-it came in the form of unanswered texts, in the way he dressed hurriedly after loving me, in the way he said her name with the same tenderness he once gave me. I had given him my heart, knowing he would never be able to keep it, and yet, I loved him still. Loved him as I watched him walk away, loved him as he returned to the arms of the woman he truly belonged to, loved him as I drowned in the loneliness he left behind. Because no matter how much I wished it to be different, I was not his home-I was just a place he visited before going back to where his heart truly lived.
