Determined Stories

One minute, Clara was walking home. The next, she was gone. Kidnapped off the street by three strangers-Ezra, Silas, and Lucian-she wakes up in a mansion too perfect to be real. Every room is tailored to her. Every meal, every hobby, every word-they knew everything. And now they expect her to play along in their twisted version of a family. They wanted her. To them, Clara is the missing piece. The daughter they've been waiting for. The one they've been preparing for. Every room is made for her. Every rule is meant to shape her. And every smile hides something sick. Ezra. Calm, calculating, always three steps ahead. No matter how careful Clara is, he sees through her. Every lie. Every escape attempt. Every flicker of rebellion. Silas is distant and cold, but dangerous in his silence. Silas keeps his distance-but when he looks at her, it's like he sees straight through. And Lucian... Lucian's the gentle one.The one who brings her hot chocolate with extra marshmallows and brushes her hair. The one who says this is all for her own good. Lucian is soft-spoken and kind... almost like he wants her to believe this could be real. But it isn't. They don't want her freedom. They want her obedience. Her love. Her role. They call it family. She calls it a nightmare. But if Clara wants to survive, she might have to play along. Even if it means pretending to love her captors. _________________________________________ Author's Note: This is a story I've been wanting to post and now I've finally done it.

Smoke flows in through my nose. I choke, my hacking growing more and more desperate. I make a desperate decision, fueled by adrenaline. My thoughts are hazy. Every part of me wishes I didn't have to do this. My lungs burn as I simply hold my breath and I start going back up. The fuzzy grey is so intense, it feels like I'm swimming in a pool of it. I want to scream, yell, do something. The grey makes me trip over myself as I climb the stairs. Almost as if I'm angry. I don't know who I'm angry with. And that's the worst part. I feel like thrashing and flailing, unable to tell what's where. But the fire is closer than I thought. I bump into it, and I feel the burns and blisters coating my left arm. I cry out, and stumble back, as I begin coughing again. My arm throbs, more intensely than before, and I know that the little scrape from earlier is nothing but an inconvenience. As I step forwards, the extra weight of my left arm throws me off balance, giving my lungs no time to think as I walk straight back into the smoke.
