I gasped for air. 

Mike laughed as he pulled me out of the water. 

"That wasn't funny you know I can't swim well!" I yelled. 

Mum laughed from the side of the pool. 

"What's so funny mum?" I snapped. 

"The fact that your on Bay Highs swim team dearie." 

My back stiffened as his fingers ran through my hair. 

"Zane." I whispered. 

He brought his mouth to my ear

"Yes my dear." he whispered. 

Zane grabbed my hand and led me to his car. 

He kissed my lips and I could smell the alcohol in his breath. 

"Zane your not supposed to be here when your drunk!" I said, scared. 

"Shut up bitch!" He warned and slapped me. 

"Maybe I should drive?" I requested. 

He shook his head. 

His fist hit my stomach. 

"I said shut up!" he angrily said. 

He started the car, and began driving. He turned a corner to fast and without stopping. 

I screamed. A sharp ringing sound was all I could hear. 

Zane had crashed. 

"Zane?" I whimpered as somebody picked me up and carried me away from the crash site. 

I could see Zane with his head cracked open. 

"Who are you?" I asked. 

"Call me master." He said. 

That was the last thing I heard, before it all went blank. 

***

Sybil Stalloway was kidnapped at 15. 

No one knows she's missing. 

Master wants the perfect family he once had. 

Carrie, Autumn, Heather, Willow, Alex, Adi, Bree, and Lizzie. 

Families can be replaced. 

But no one can replace a broken heart.

The Hound

65 parts Complete

Antique store owner Liz brings home a Victorian taxidermy hound from auction, unwittingly unleashing dark forces on her wife and son. ***** Nat Loman has finally married the love of her life, Liz, and is getting used to her role as stepmother to Liz's 5-year-old son, Liam. The Loman family runs a bustling antique business so they attend a sale where a striking, black taxidermied hound is up for auction. Liz picks it up for the business, but it ends up being stored in their home, where Nat notices strange things occurring. She quickly discovers the past residents had died violently. Then she hears from a friend about the myth of "the devil's dog", a hound that perches in the shadows, tearing families apart from the inside. Soon, people around the Lomans are dying, and Liz is changing, darkening. It's up to Nat to save the woman she loves from the darkness closing in, and to save Liam from danger no matter what she has to sacrifice.
