Tirsa Duggan's life had always been a tightly woven tapestry of ambition and escape, threads of her past neatly concealed beneath the facade of her successful career. A career born out of necessity, forged in the crucible of tragedy that marred her childhood on a quiet farm in Ohio. It was a place that should have been idyllic, but became a nightmare when her father's hands became stained with the blood of her brother and mother, leaving another brother in a perpetual coma. This harrowing incident marked a traumatic turning point in Tirsa's life, one that she had desperately tried to forget.

But life has a way of catching up with the past. Tirsa's tightly held emotions come unraveled when she crosses paths with one of her students, a young man who, like her, has endured his own share of unspeakable trauma. The connection is instant, an empathetic bond that transcends the barriers she had built around her heart. In the midst of this connection, Tirsa is driven to an impetuous decision, one that catapults her into a twisted and treacherous web of circumstances she couldn't have anticipated.

As the shadows of her impulsive act close in around her, Tirsa finds herself entangled in a world of danger that threatens to destroy everything she's worked so hard to build. Her career teeters on the brink of ruin, her soul bears fresh scars, and her life is in peril. The past she had buried deep within her psyche has returned with a menacing vengeance, and the evil that stole her family from her now stalks her, lurking in the shadows, waiting for the right moment to strike.

"Menace" is a riveting tale of redemption, revenge, and resilience. Will Tirsa have the strength to unearth the hidden evil that haunts her and discover the truth about her family's tragedy? Can she confront her past and the menace that lurks in the shadows, or will it consume her before she can find the answers she so desperately seeks?

~~~~~ "C'mon, cupcake. Why are you always trying to avoid me? All you're doing is delaying the inevitable." "And what's that?" Rylan spits, annoyed. He brushes her hair gently behind her ear. Rylan flinches when Blake's hand makes contact with her skin. "I enjoy taking what I can't have, especially when it's a challenge. I want what I want. And you...are something I desperately want." ~~~~~ "Do you think you're special, Rylan? Are you really so stupid that you think you're better than me--that you have a say in what goes on in my classroom?" Mr. Quinn asks in a deep, menacing voice. He glares at Rylan and digs his fingers into the skin on her forearms. "You don't. You. are. nothing. So you better get that through your thick, little skull." Mr. Quinn presses his face closer to Rylan's so she has to turn her head to escape his hot breath. He lets go of her left arm and grabs her chin roughly, forcing her to look at him. "I. abhor. you. And all students like you. I'm in the position of power here. You'd do well to remember that." ~~~~~ If Rylan had it her way, she'd be going to school, hanging out with her friends in her free time, and returning home every day to two loving parents and the safety of her home. But if life has taught her anything, it's that you rarely ever get to have things your way. Her school life is quickly becoming a nightmare. Her English teacher is emotionally unstable under the professional front he puts up and Rylan has managed to catch the eye of the resident "bad boy" and his cronies, which doesn't seem to be boding well for her. Rylan can't even count on her house to be a safe haven anymore--not while her nightmares can penetrate walls. It's not just her happiness that's at stake here. It's her life. But can she stand up to the people who scare her most, or will she end up just another statistic? --------- © 2015 Miranda JK
