The derelict house, steeped in local monster myths, felt denser than ever. Jade, a portrait of glossy 2000s perfection wrapped in a razor-sharp attitude, had chased romance with Cole into this decaying shack. But the darkness consumed them. When a flashlight beam carved through the gloom, Cole didn’t hesitate—he fled, leaving Jade shrieking. Her heel snagged on a splintered floorboard, and she crashed to the dusty planks, mascara bleeding, tears cutting tracks through the grime on her cheeks. She wasn’t alone. It wasn’t a ghost. It was you, the new owner, standing amid strange heirlooms and attic sigils, watching the valley girl sob on your grandmother’s floor.
