Too Late, Mr. Mills: Watch Me Leave
Romance Adriana Guzman spent two agonizing days tearing through the freezing fog of the woods, searching for her missing five-year-old daughter.
She finally found little Pippa curled up under a massive oak tree, her tiny body frozen solid and lifeless. Trembling, Adriana called her husband, Everette. Instead of panic, she heard the soft voice of his mistress in the background.
"You think telling me my daughter is dead will make me book a flight home?"
He laughed, accusing her of faking the tragedy for attention. When Adriana woke up in the hospital, Everette finally arrived, bringing his mistress with him. He shielded the other woman from Adriana's grief, threw a checkbook at her, and demanded she name her price to sign the divorce papers. He only believed the truth when the midday news broadcasted the discovery of Pippa's body. Exhausted and utterly broken by his cruelty, Adriana swallowed a hidden bottle of sleeping pills.
As the darkness pulled her under, she felt a suffocating sense of injustice. Why had she wasted her life begging for a cold man's affection? Why did her innocent daughter have to die alone in the freezing mud while he drank champagne?
But the end never came. Adriana opened her eyes to find herself twenty-one again, standing in a luxury hotel room as a younger Everette walked out of the shower to propose. This time, she smashed a crystal vase, pressed a jagged shard to her own bleeding throat, and looked him dead in the eye.
"I would rather die right here than ever marry you." The Surgeon's Five-Year Lie
Modern For five years, my celebrated surgeon husband was my hero, my devoted caregiver through a brutal battle with cancer. I thought our love was a blessing.
Then a different hospital revealed the truth: I was perfectly healthy. I overheard him confess to his assistant, Brianna. My illness, the dozens of surgeries, the constant pain-it was all a monstrous, calculated lie.
They had kept me sick to keep me dependent. They even performed an unnecessary hysterectomy, stealing my ability to have children as a twisted "compensation" for his mistress's obsession.
His final betrayal was bringing a pregnant Brianna into our home, expecting me to raise their child. He truly believed I was so broken I would just accept it.
But he made one mistake. He forgot the love letter he signed before our wedding, a promise that if he ever betrayed me, I would be free. When he sent me to the market for his mistress, I walked out of that gilded cage and never looked back. The Wife He Left For Dead

On our fifth anniversary, I lay dying on the bathroom floor while my husband ignored my calls to celebrate with his "best friend."
When my neighbor finally rushed me to the ER for a ruptured ectopic pregnancy, my husband arrived hours later, annoyed that I' d ruined his night.
But the real betrayal came when he forced me to drink tequila days after surgery, watching me bleed out just to please his mistress.
At Elsa's launch party, Gideon snatched the shot glass and shoved the alcohol down my throat, mocking my pain as "drama."
As a fresh pool of crimson soaked my dress, he didn't call 911.
He turned to comfort Elsa, who was "shaken" by the scene.
I survived only because of Alva, the reclusive billionaire next door, who shielded my dignity with his jacket while my husband stepped over me.
Recovering in Alva' s care, I discovered the "award-winning" designs Gideon had gifted Elsa were actually mine-stolen from my college archives years ago.
They thought I was the fragile, obedient wife who would die quietly in the background.
They were wrong.
I wiped the blood from my legs, accepted Alva's offer, and prepared to burn their stolen empire to the ground. My Husband's Treacherous Game
Romance For two years, I was the perfect daughter-in-law, caring for my "paralyzed" mother-in-law to pay for a mistake my husband, Holden, never let me forget.
The day I found out her paralysis was a lie was the day I also discovered he' d tricked me into signing our divorce papers.
They moved his mistress into our home. When I tried to expose their lies, they had my leg broken and sent me for electroshock therapy, forcing a false confession while my husband watched.
On the night of his wedding to her, I overheard him say his biggest regret was ever marrying me.
That' s when the last of my love finally turned to ash.
Months later, as I turned my back on his pathetic pleas for forgiveness, a speeding car hurtled toward me.
Holden pushed me to safety, sacrificing himself.
Now, he lies broken in a hospital bed, looking at me with hope in his eyes, asking if I can finally forgive him. Betrayal's Ashes: A Love Destroyed
Modern The terminal air was thick with the smell of my ruined life. My family archives, centuries of our legacy, were buried under a rich man' s playground, reduced to landfill by my own wife, Chloe.
Then my phone buzzed, showing a picture of Chloe, beaming, beside her first love, Liam, in a hospital bed. The headline screamed about a "groundbreaking transplant." They didn't mention the tissue came from our seven-month-old, unborn son, induced early, sacrificed "for Liam."
Chloe' s words, cold as ice, still haunted me while I tried to process that our son "never had a chance." Now, she and Liam were enjoying their twisted fairy-tale, while I was left with nothing but ashes and betrayal.
My mother, the last shred of my family, became her next target. Used as leverage, she was pushed to her death, adding another layer to my agonizing loss.
Why had my life become this twisted nightmare? Why couldn't I see the monster behind Chloe's beautiful mask? I was a fool, a pawn in her vengeful game against her own family, a convenient shield until I was no longer needed.
I was trapped, but I wouldn't break. I would expose her. I would fight back. My Vampire's Love
Romance My name is Chloe, and I am a monster-or at least, that' s what he calls me now.
I gave Ethan Vance everything: my immortality, my power, the very essence of my being so he could walk in the sun again, so he could feel the warmth of a human life.
My reward? A cold, damp basement, chains biting into my wrists and ankles, and the unending hatred in his eyes, a venom he now directs entirely at me.
He got his humanity back, but the process left a scar on his soul, turning him into a tech mogul who secretly hunted my kind, imprisoning them in labs to steal their power.
I was offering myself as the perfect sacrifice, begging him to stop hurting my kin, the others.
But he just whispered, "Their suffering is part of your punishment. But your suffering… that' s the main event."
His fiancée, Olivia Reed, giggled, watching me starve as Ethan nudged a bucket of blood just out of my reach: "If you want it, you' ll have to crawl for it. Just like the animal you are."
He expected me to grovel, to break, to succumb to the gnawing hunger that clawed at my insides.
But as I looked at his merciless face and Olivia' s smug one, something inside me broke-or perhaps, something was finally forged.
I knew I would not be his plaything forever.
He thought these chains and this hunger were his ultimate weapons against me, but he was wrong.
I had one of my own. A final, irreversible way out.
And I was going to use it. His Betrayal, Her Unforeseen Destiny
Romance For five years, I lived for Marcus, my boss-a phantom in the shadows, cleaning up his messes, raising his son, Leo, and silently loving him.
I secretly nursed a fragile hope, even as he brushed off my unspoken feelings with a dismissive, "You're too young, Ava. Don't get tied down with an old man like me." Yet, in the next breath, he' d ask me to pick up Leo from school.
Then came the corporate espionage, a mission that went sideways fast, and Marcus was captured.
The rival CEO, a ruthless man named Victor Thorne, contacted me, demanding my deadliest secret-a vulnerability I' d found in his company's system.
I gave it up without a second thought; Marcus' s life was worth any cost.
He came back shaken but unharmed, and I felt hollowed out, used.
The next day, I heard him talking to our PR manager, Celeste. "She always tried to get me to commit. Never met such a desperate woman!"
Celeste purred, "You have to admit, she's useful."
"Useful?" Marcus scoffed. "If she wasn't so good at digging up dirt, I would have fired her years ago! Her puppy-dog eyes are exhausting."
My world shattered. Every sacrifice, every late night, every ounce of love I' d poured into him, into his son-it was all a joke, a convenience.
I was just…useful.
My heart didn' t just break; it disintegrated.
I realized I' d mistaken a job for a home, a boss for a savior.
Later that week, everything fell apart even more.
A routine operation turned into an ambush, and gunfire erupted.
A bullet tore through my shoulder. Another grazed my side. Pain exploded through me.
The last thing I heard before darkness consumed me was Marcus' s frantic cry over the comms system: "Ava! No! Please, God, please, bring her back to me..."
Too little, too late. The Unseen Twin
Modern The cold floor bit into Chloe' s cheek as rough hands pulled at her, accusations screaming in her ears – accusations of ruining lives, of being a disgrace.
Suddenly, her eyes snapped open to sunlight streaming through her window, the familiar comfort of her own bed; she was back.
But the relief was fleeting as the news anchor's voice cut through the quiet night, detailing a scandalous video of her, filmed at the prestigious Hawthorne Hotel, showing illicit activities that had gone viral.
Her phone exploded with a torrent of hate, each comment a sharp object piercing her, while her fiancé, Mark, stormed in, his eyes blazing, demanding answers and throwing his phone down to reveal the damning video, accusing her of everything.
Even as police detailed irrefutable evidence of her presence with DNA, timestamps, and surveillance footage, she knew it was impossible-she had been home all day-and a chilling impossibility settled over her as a desperate thought began to form: how could it be her, yet not be her? When The Wrong Groom Shows Up
Romance Three days before my wedding, I walked into my fiancé Matthew' s bachelor party, custom watch in hand, ready to surprise him.
Instead, a chilling whisper cut through the pulsating Vegas bass: "Relationship swap dare? Genius... a hall pass weekend with Nicole Chavez."
My heart froze as I watched Matthew, the man I was about to marry, pin his high-school flame against the glass, kissing her passionately.
When he saw me, there was no guilt, only annoyance, then a dismissive shrug: "It's just a game, babe. A dare. If you're upset, go hang out with my brother, Andrew. It's fair, right? A swap."
My carefully planned life shattered, the custom watch turning into a lead weight in my hand, but Matthew' s smug confidence that I would still marry him despite his brazen betrayal ignited a cold, quiet rage within me.
As I turned to leave, his brother Andrew found me, offering a glass of water and a startling question-a chance to swap grooms at the altar. The Arbiter's Betrayal

In her hand, Seraphina held Elara's Quill of Reckoning.
"You stand accused," Silas declared, his face grim, as Clara's cold eyes echoed the blatant lie: betrayal, an attempt to steal the Quill.
Elara watched, powerless, as her Aura of Authority was seized.
Pain, sharp and absolute, tore through her as she was condemned to The Abyss-eternal torment.
Her last conscious thought was a desperate "How?"
How could her Quill obey another?
How could her cherished friends do this?

Modern The lawyer, Mr. Henderson, pushed the document across the polished mahogany table.
"Sign here, Sarah, and Ethan Vance will be legally declared deceased."
My husband, Ethan, was gone, lost in a sailing accident off the Hamptons.
But the grief I displayed was a carefully constructed facade for the world.
His body was mostly unrecoverable, they said, trying to save his influencer girlfriend, Chloe Bellweather.
Unbeknownst to them, divorce papers rested on Ethan' s desk, untouched by my hand, clear evidence of his intent to leave me for Chloe.
Now, there would be no divorce.
The bulk of Ethan' s immense estate, a fortune beyond any settlement, was irrevocably mine.
A small, cold smile touched my lips, one Mr. Henderson thankfully missed.
This wasn't about newfound wealth; it was about vengeance.
Years ago, my mother, Linda, died in a hit-and-run, unsolved, on a remote highway.
The powerful Vance family, Ethan' s family, I knew, were inextricably connected to that night, to its cover-up, and to the decades of injustice.

As I left the lawyer' s office, stepping into the city' s noise, I felt a chilling satisfaction.
Phase one was complete.
The Vances had no idea their meticulously planned downfall had just begun. My Wife's Other Life
Romance My wife, Sarah, was everything to me – kind, loving, my whole world.
We shared a quiet life, anchored by our love and the little silver locket I gave her on our anniversary.
Then an email arrived with no subject, just a raw link.
It led me to a dark web forum, and an image that shattered my reality: a woman, explicit, wearing Sarah's irreplaceable locket.
My stomach twisted into knots. The comments were vile. But the locket… It was hers. Was this really my Sarah, the woman I loved?
I hired a PI, desperate for answers. What he found was worse: photos of my wife entering a cheap motel with a stranger.
The world tilted. The charity-organizing Sarah, the kind-hearted woman I married, seemed utterly incompatible with this betrayal.
Was she a stranger? How could this be happening?
When I confronted her and the man at a deserted warehouse, he knocked me out cold.
Waking up, I demanded answers, only for Sarah to confess a truth far more complex and dangerous than I ever imagined: a years-long undercover operation to avenge her father, smeared to death by the very forum I uncovered. No Love, Only Ruin

To save my dying mother, I married Ethan Blackwood, the CEO who ruined us.
Our cold wedding; Ethan instantly declared it no love match.
My father died a week later.

For five years, I lived as a beautiful facade, a tormented shadow.
Ethan's relentless abuse, and his mistress Isabelle, a venomous fixture.
Pregnant, a faint hope stirred.

Ethan believed her.

That last glimmer of light extinguished.
My mother' s pact became a cruel joke.
He made me swallow contraceptives, then burned the small memorial I made for our son.
"He was your son too!" I screamed.
"How could you?"
Truly nothing left.
I walked out and climbed to the Starlight Observation Deck, ready to jump.
Ethan appeared, frantic, revealing our son' s actual ashes were safe.
Too late.
"I'm tired, Ethan. So tired," I whispered, then jumped.
I survived, but my will to live was gone.
Ethan finally saw the monster he' d become, his revenge's devastating price.
He begged for atonement.
But as snow fell, my last words: "If there's a next life, let's not meet." No Longer Your Supporting Role
Romance The last thing I remembered was dying alone on a cold concrete floor, my family ruined, my life a story someone else wrote.
But then a cold, mechanical voice declared me a "supporting character" and a "villainess," my narrative arc complete.
My decade-long devotion to Ethan Vance, the golden boy, was dismissed as a mere "transaction" when his true love, Clara, appeared.
He effortlessly took all credit for my work, systematically destroyed my family' s legacy, and left me for dead, branded the jealous antagonist.
Was my entire existence just a cruel, predetermined role in someone else' s story, my suffering merely a plot device for their happiness?

What followed was a horrifying campaign of torment.

Modern I was stabbed by a thug when the big screen on the street happened to be playing an interview with the film emperor, Fu Lingze.
The reporter asked who I was to him, and he said, "She is my housekeeper."
With just that one word, "housekeeper," he erased the ten years of love we had shared.
I collapsed in a pool of blood, watching the big screen as he embraced the daughter of a billionaire, smiling with a look of indulgence.
Three years later, he burst into my wedding ceremony, kneeling and begging for my forgiveness.
I said, "I'm sorry, big star, but I've lost my memory and don't remember what our relationship was."
My fiancé immediately played an old video: "Baby, look, he said with his own mouth that you are his housekeeper." You might like
While I Was Bleeding Out, He Lit Lanterns For Her
Katie Oettgen As I lay on the floor of our manor, bleeding out from a ruptured ectopic pregnancy, I used my last ounce of strength to call my husband, Cole.
I begged him for help, my vision blurring.
But the only thing I heard was the clinking of champagne glasses and his mistress's giggle in the background.
"Stop the drama, June," Cole snapped, his voice cold. "We're about to go on stage. Don't call again."
He hung up, leaving me to die alone on the Persian rug while he accepted an award with another woman on his arm.
I woke up in the hospital days later. My baby was gone. They had removed my fallopian tube.
Cole finally arrived, smelling of expensive scotch and his mistress's perfume. He didn't hug me. He didn't cry.
Instead, he leaned over my hospital bed, pressing his knee into the mattress until my fresh stitches tore open and bled.
"You embarrassed me by calling an ambulance," he hissed. "My mistress, Alycia, says you're faking it. Clean yourself up."
He left me bleeding again to go announce a $10 million donation to Alycia's "groundbreaking" medical research.
I stared at the TV screen, numb. The research Alycia was taking credit for? It was mine. I wrote that patent years ago under a pseudonym.
They thought I was just a poor, orphan housewife who needed Cole's money to survive.
They had no idea I was actually a billionaire scientist hiding my identity.
I pulled the IV needle out of my arm. A drop of blood fell onto the divorce papers I had been hiding.
I didn't wipe it off. I signed my name right over it.
Then I walked into the bank, reactivated my dormant account with $128 million, and bought the penthouse directly overlooking Cole's house.
The mourning widow is dead. The avenger is born. Too Late, Mr. CEO: Watch Me Shine
Nieves Gómez Kayla stood outside the CEO suite, holding a custom suit for her fiancé, Brennon. They had spent seven years building a tech company from a freezing garage into a billion-dollar empire.
But through the cracked door, she heard the breathy laugh of Evelin, the newly hired director. Then came Brennon's low, careless voice.
"The wedding's a PR milestone for the IPO, nothing more."
Kayla's blood turned to ice.
"She's comfortable. Makes sense on paper," Brennon continued. "But you, Evelin. You understand ambition."
The betrayal hit her like a physical blow. She had written the core code that made him a billionaire. She had stayed up until 4 AM debugging while he slept on a futon. Now, he was mocking their relationship to his mistress and handing over her life's work to a woman who couldn't even read a data log.
Seven years of loyalty, reduced to a PR stunt. She didn't cry. Instead, a cold, violent clarity washed over her. Why should she let him keep the crown she forged?
Without a word, she pulled the three-carat diamond off her finger and dropped it into her bag. She walked out of the building, drafted her resignation, and accepted a VP position at his biggest Wall Street rival. It was time to show Brennon what happened when the real genius behind his empire decided to tear it down. Flash Marriage To My Best Friend's Father
Madel Cerda I was once the heiress to the Solomon empire, but after it crumbled, I became the "charity case" ward of the wealthy Hyde family. For years, I lived in their shadows, clinging to the promise that Anson Hyde would always be my protector.
That promise shattered when Anson walked into the ballroom with Claudine Chapman on his arm. Claudine was the girl who had spent years making my life a living hell, and now Anson was announcing their engagement to the world.
The humiliation was instant. Guests sneered at my cheap dress, and a waiter intentionally sloshed champagne over me, knowing I was a nobody. Anson didn't even look my way; he was too busy whispering possessively to his new fiancée. I was a ghost in my own home, watching my protector celebrate with my tormentor.
The betrayal burned. I realized I wasn't a ward; I was a pawn Anson had kept on a shelf until he found a better trade. I had no money, no allies, and a legal trust fund that Anson controlled with a flick of his wrist.
Fleeing to the library, I stumbled into Dallas Koch-a titan of industry and my best friend's father. He was a wall of cold, absolute power that even the Hydes feared.
"Marry me," I blurted out, desperate to find a shield Anson couldn't climb.
Dallas didn't laugh. He pulled out a marriage agreement and a heavy fountain pen.
"Sign," he commanded, his voice a low rumble. "But if you walk out that door with me, you never go back."
I signed my name, trading my life for the only man dangerous enough to keep me safe. One Night With My Billionaire Boss
Nathaniel Stone I woke up on silk sheets that smelled of expensive cedar and cold sandalwood, a world away from my cramped apartment in Brooklyn.
Beside me lay Ezra Gardner-my boss, the billionaire CEO of Gardner Holdings, and the man who could end my career with a snap of his fingers.
He didn't offer an apology for the night before; instead, he looked at me with terrifying clarity and proposed a cold, calculated business arrangement.
"Marriage. It stabilizes the board and solves the PR crisis before it begins."
He dressed me in archival Chanel and sent me home in his Maybach, but my life was already falling apart. My boyfriend, Irving, claimed he had passed out early, yet his location data placed him at my best friend's apartment until three in the morning. When I tried to run, I realized Ezra was already ten steps ahead, tracking my movements and uncovering the secret I'd spent twenty years hiding: my connection to the powerful Senator Grimes.
I was trapped between a CEO who treated me like a line item on a quarterly report and a boyfriend who had been using me while sleeping with my closest friend. I felt like a pawn in a game I didn't understand, wondering why a man like Ezra would walk up forty flights of stairs on a broken leg just to make sure I was safe.
"Showtime, Mrs. Gardner."
Standing on the red carpet in a gown that cost more than my life, I watched my cheating ex-boyfriend's face turn pale as Ezra claimed me in front of the world. I wasn't just an assistant anymore; I was a weapon, and it was time to burn their world down. His Twisted Game, My Dangerous Love
Elroy Notman Vesper's marriage to Julian Sterling was a gilded cage. One morning, she woke naked beside Damon Sterling, Julian's terrifying brother, then found a text: Julian's mistress was pregnant. Her world shattered, but the real nightmare had just begun.

SHANA GRAY The sterile white of the operating room blurred, then sharpened, as Skye Sterling felt the cold clawing its way up her body. The heart monitor flatlined, a steady, high-pitched whine announcing her end. Her uterus had been removed, a desperate attempt to stop the bleeding, but the blood wouldn't clot. It just kept flowing, warm and sticky, pooling beneath her.
Through heavy eyes, she saw a trembling nurse holding a phone on speaker. "Mr. Kensington," the nurse's voice cracked, "your wife... she's critical." A pause, then a sweet, poisonous giggle. Seraphina Miller. "Liam is in the shower," Seraphina's voice purred. "Stop calling, Skye. It's pathetic. Faking a medical emergency on our anniversary? Even for you, that's low." Then, Liam's bored voice: "If she dies, call the funeral home. I have a meeting in the morning." Click. The line went dead.
A second later, so did Skye. The darkness that followed was absolute, suffocating, a black ocean crushing her lungs. She screamed into the void, a silent, agonizing wail of regret for loving a man who saw her as a nuisance, for dying without ever truly living.
Until she died, she didn't understand. Why was her life so tragically wasted? Why did her husband, the man she loved, abandon her so cruelly? The injustice of it all burned hotter than the fever in her body.
Then, the air rushed back in. Skye gasped, her body convulsing violently on the mattress. Her eyes flew open, wide and terrified, staring blindly into the darkness. Her trembling hand reached for her phone. May 12th. Five years ago. She was back. The Betrayed Heiress And Her Genius Comeback
I. HAWKINS I skipped my final lab review in Geneva and endured a fourteen-hour flight to surprise my husband for our fourth wedding anniversary.
Instead, looking through the window of our beachfront estate, I saw him playing the perfect, loving father to a "tragic widow's" daughter, kissing the widow with practiced, casual intimacy.
Fleeing in pure panic, I got into a horrific car crash.
Waking up in the VIP hospital room, I kept my eyes shut and heard my husband talking to his best friend right beside my bed.
"She's just a party girl who knows how to swipe a black card. I only play the part because I need her father's proxy vote for the IPO."
"Every time I have to touch her in bed, it feels like a corporate obligation. It makes me sick."
Later, even my own father demanded I step down from my company role and publicly welcome the mistress, just to protect the family's investment in the upcoming ten-billion-dollar IPO.
Four years of marriage and quiet humiliations, all reduced to a calculated lie. They all thought I was just a brainless, hysterical socialite who could be easily manipulated and discarded.
They didn't know that the core anti-aging algorithm his entire empire relied on was secretly built by me.
I calmly pulled out my phone and texted my divorce lawyer.
"I want him bankrupt. On the day his company rings the bell, I am going to burn his entire life to the ground." Married to the CEO by Morning
Hydro Therapy After my boyfriend of four years publicly humiliated me at a charity gala, calling me a "charity case," I drowned my sorrows at a dive bar and had a one-night stand with a stranger.
I woke up the next morning in a luxury hotel suite to find out the stranger was Christian Porter, the most ruthless billionaire on Wall Street.
Worse, paparazzi had photographed us leaving the bar. He coldly informed me that the photos would create a scandal that could tank his company's upcoming IPO, costing him hundreds of millions. As if my world wasn't collapsing fast enough, I got a call that my younger brother had been arrested for assaulting my ex in my defense.
Christian didn't want my apology; he wanted a solution. He slammed a prenuptial agreement on the table in front of me.
He gave me an ultimatum: sign a two-year marriage contract to turn the scandal into a corporate fairy tale, or he would ruin me. Trapped, I agreed. But when my furious brother confronted him at the police station, Christian looked him dead in the eye and said something that left me breathless.
"I didn't marry her to solve a problem," he said, his voice echoing in the small room. "I married her because I've been in love with her for ten years." Bound By The CEO's Cruel Contract
Sibeal Sallese I was the orphaned "parasite" of the Tyler family, taken in only to be abused for fifteen years after my parents died in a tragic car crash.
To finally escape their control, I sold my first time to my ruthless billionaire boss, Ellsworth Mosley, for one million dollars.
I thought it was a clean transaction.
But the next morning, covered in severe bruises he left on me, I was handed a brutal contract with a fifty-million-dollar penalty.
He didn't just buy my silence; he bought me.
My nightmare only worsened when my adoptive family found out about my connection to the billionaire.
Instead of disgust, they invited me to a hypocritical family dinner.
"Talk to Mosley, convince him to invest in our failing business," my adoptive father demanded shamelessly.
His son, who had tormented me for years, even grabbed my hand.
"Do this, and we can be officially engaged. You'll finally be a real Tyler."
They wanted me to whore myself out to save the family that had treated me like a stray dog.
I shattered my wine glass, cursed them to go bankrupt, and walked out into the rain.
As I reached the door, my phone vibrated with a terrifying summons from Ellsworth.
But it was the panicked whisper behind me that froze my blood.
"She knows about the brakes on her parents' car. If anyone finds out what we did, we'll go to prison."
They murdered my parents.
I gripped my phone, accepting the devil's call.
Since I was already bound to a monster, I would use his power to drag them all to hell.
