Memories were fleeting shards of a fractured past, dulled by time and buried beneath pain. For Maeri, the only clarity was him - the man whose voice carried promises as sweet as they were suffocating. Seven hundred days beneath his unrelenting watch, each sunset trapped within walls that whispered horrors only she could hear - the echoes of a girl who could barely recall herself. Scars marred skin like ghostly confessions, while tears carved silent rivers of longing. Somewhere beyond the shadows lay a family long forgotten, a home that felt more like a dream. But even in despair, an ember of determination burned. Freedom would demand more than courage - confronting the darkness she had once called her world. A kiss always haunted resolve, a presence attached like her own shadow even in the vast unknown; a touch she yearned to feel, a voice she longed to hear. The chains he left behind were not so easily broken. His presence lingered in every step she took, the promises that felt more like a curse than salvation.

Borrowed Time by JasonWright143
17 parts Ongoing
In the quiet shadows of a small-town mortuary, Margaret and her enigmatic husband Edwin live a life surrounded by death, offering solace to grieving families and preparing the dead for their final rest. But beneath the surface of their seemingly ordinary existence, lies a dark and dangerous secret. For centuries, Edwin has extended his life through the use of mysterious hourglasses-each containing the stolen time of those who have passed. As long as the sands keep falling, so too does Edwin's unnatural youth. But his immortality comes at a cost, one that Margaret is unaware of... for now. As Margaret begins to notice strange occurrences in the mortuary-footsteps in the night, missing bodies, and a new arrival who refuses to stay dead-she starts to unravel the truth about her husband's agelessness and the sinister hourglasses hidden in their home. The deeper she digs, the more she is drawn into a world where time can be bought and sold, where life and death are no longer absolutes, and where the price of eternal life is far steeper than she ever imagined. Now, Margaret must confront a devastating choice: whether to stand by her husband and partake in his unnatural existence, or shatter the hourglass that has bound him to this world and face the consequences of undoing time itself. Borrowed Time is a haunting tale of love, immortality, and the moral boundaries between life and death. As the clock ticks down, Margaret must decide what it means to truly live-and whether time is something to be treasured, stolen, or sacrificed.
