As the vibrant melodies of the ballroom dissolve into an eerie silence, a looming shadow emerges in the doorway. Echoes of past screams linger, freezing the once-celebratory air, leaving the guests paralyzed in terror.
Horror-stricken, they witness the sinister figure, uncertain of the impending fate that hangs heavily in the balance. The palpable fear intensifies with each passing moment, the room filled with the erratic drumming of hearts.
The tension is unbearable as they await the whims of the madman, their collective breaths caught between the specter of a masquarade and the slim hope of mercy.
Will this night conclude in a tragic blood bath, or will mercy answer their desperate prayers?

Untangled
I slammed the table loudly and groaned out of pain. Not only the pain from the headache I was having right now. But also from the memories flooding my mind as well. I was slowly remembering everything. "I hate you!"I shouted seething from anger as I gritted my teeth to stop myself from attacking him. He was really tempting me and I knew it wouldn't be long before I would attempt to pull his face apart and rip out his throat. "Not more than I hate you Alexander Norman. Trust me." He said emphasising on the name that seemed so foreign to me yet that was my real name. He had a mischievous glint in his eyes as he seemed to enjoy the internal battle I was having in my head. " So back to my story-" He drawled in an attempt to irritate me before he continued. " Your mother married me because I had her secret and I threatened to ruin her with it if she did not give in to my wishes." "And what exactly was her secret?" I asked. "She killed your father." He responded and glanced at me probably waiting for my reaction at what he just said. ●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●● Scandals brew in the air once more.
