The living room was dimly lit, the only sound the faint hum of the mansion's ancient air conditioning. We sat in a loose circle on the floor, the tension in the room so thick it felt like it could suffocate us. Hendrick had suggested a game to pass the time while we waited for Evelyn to return with groceries. It was supposed to be fun, but the way he smirked as he shuffled the deck told me this was anything but.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbgiounCNC
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBxpUygLCm
"Alright," Hendrick said, his voice dripping with mockery. "Truth or Dare. No backing out."116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZesbBZSGtd
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2ahUFYC19
"Seriously?" I said, raising an eyebrow. "We're not twelve."116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfDiQIco1h
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYF5hDpBWd
"Come on," Hendrick shot back, his grin widening. "Don't tell me you're scared."116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQGi2XByCN
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4y17xeQ5L
"I'm not scared," I snapped. "I just think it's stupid."116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEvPh9QwE1
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBY9hjFDHn8
"Then it shouldn't be a problem," Hendrick said, dealing the cards with a flick of his wrist. His eyes gleamed with mischief as he turned to Maya. "You're up first. Truth or Dare?"116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMKhfILPea
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIiybel3Vs
Maya hesitated, glancing at me before answering. "Truth," she said, her voice quiet.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Vc7ONeGZc
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRP7MLGAmF
Hendrick leaned forward, his smirk stretching across his face. "Do you really think your sister's been clean since rehab?"116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeU8yYaI88
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YejJxPmH1
The room fell silent. Maya's eyes widened, and she glanced at me, her expression torn. "I… I don't know," she said finally.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Sl6IOzyYN
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPV9LkJ1mD
"Maya," I said, my voice sharp. "You know I haven't relapsed."116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxagtnq8Ax
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfT88nIqMl
"Do I?" Maya shot back, her tone defensive. "You've been so distant lately. How am I supposed to know what you're doing?"116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxe0hnW9B44
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYOc51WBmz
"Because I'm your sister," I said, my voice rising. "You're supposed to trust me."116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74HwT5d6Ei
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBz1cDCLWzg
"Trust you?" Maya said, her voice shaking. "You're the one who pushed me away. You're the one who stopped coming to the clubhouse. How am I supposed to trust you when you won't even talk to me?"116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdnf371JCP
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRviqqVkeI0
The room was silent, the tension thick enough to cut with a knife. Hendrick leaned back, a satisfied smirk on his face. "Looks like we hit a nerve."116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpROwHOTXg7
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KinhMpHGn
"Shut up, Hendrick," I snapped, my hands clenched into fists. "This is your fault."116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwVSju04z3
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZd9JqenZz6
"My fault?" Hendrick said, his tone mocking. "I'm not the one who's been avoiding everyone. I'm not the one who's been lying."116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18FrmdAhGG
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulbaVSuNFd
"I haven't been lying!" I shouted, my voice echoing through the room.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOMqy13LoO
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxeiUrGQQn
"Prove it," Hendrick said, his eyes narrowing. "It's Maya's turn now. How about you let her pat you down as a dare? If you've got nothing to hide, it shouldn't be a problem."116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZGZAAiq0j
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEY82ie2dN
"You're unbelievable," I said, my voice low with anger. "I never agreed to a dare, and I'm not doing this regardless."116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoxeNl9zUg
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwAHTTXvPC
"Why not?" Maya said, her voice trembling. "If you've got nothing to hide, why won't you let me?"116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVmLAWn36j
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SLInpRHHQ
I stared at her, my heart sinking. "You're really going to side with him?"116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0BKtIktm3
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4vYkGYZZj
Maya hesitated, her eyes flicking between me and Hendrick. "I just… I need to know."116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAoM9bGDKw
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJg2g0Rkkf
"Fine," I said, my voice cold. "Do it."116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdS9U0ouoL5
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkssti5NDXZ
Maya stepped forward, her hands shaking as she patted me down. The room was silent, the tension unbearable. She pulled a cigarette from the front pocket of my overalls and eyed me suspiciously.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5evDSmAj2C
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4v7igcFP3w
"That's not an addiction," I said defensively.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJpVU8eaSV
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3eAH3xUg6
"Isn't it?" Maya argued, her voice rising. "Because this is how it begins. First it's cigarettes, then it's alcohol, and then it's hard drugs. I've seen it before."116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAlJIVSSSq
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fVPfMEz2B
"Maya," I started, but before I could say anything else, a sound cut through the silence—a low, guttural moan coming from somewhere deep in the mansion.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZdbUrmKJU
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfGvTZyvTb
"What is that sound?" Masha said, her voice low but filled with terror.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsg6ER9hM3F
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGJAWvde2t
The moan came again, louder this time, and the air seemed to grow colder. I glanced around the room, my heart pounding. "Guys," I said, my voice tight. "Where are Martin and Hendrick?"116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMNk4i9bTH
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdp42b3Rymq
We got up and looked around the living room, the eerie silence amplifying our unease. "Babe?!" Maya shouted, her voice trembling as she searched for Hendrick.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwTStNw4H9
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmV8xh64bTI
"Martin!" Sasha called out, her tone growing more frantic with each passing second.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9hxazxyqm
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufwEX0htsm
But instead of a response, we were met with a loud, piercing scream that echoed from the direction of the study. My stomach dropped, and I glanced at Masha, who shared the same wide-eyed expression of dread.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDPk4HItkC
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRt8nnC1UVC
Sasha started toward the study, but I quickly grabbed her arm, shaking my head. My eyes pleaded with her not to follow the sound. She hesitated, her face pale, but before she could argue, a heavy thud reverberated through the mansion, followed by footsteps—slow, deliberate, and growing louder with each step.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGepoGe3alu
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlavmHyMwq
Sasha's hand found mine, our fingers interlocking as we braced ourselves for whatever was coming. The footsteps grew closer, echoing through the hallway like a countdown to disaster.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrX1tTlSsZ
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wE7xWbBU2
Footsteps.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOy330UIzR
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBD1Y9P3JxM
Footsteps.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4gAOolxBI
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUcNvSUc6N
Footsteps.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZuAqJZoyk
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHv2lAPfUTm
The door swung open, and my heart froze for a beat. But it wasn't a monster that emerged—it was Hendrick, his face pale and his clothes splattered with dark, drying blood. His hands trembled as he clutched the doorframe, his breathing ragged.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAYv6WYLWr
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KgQH3uVD4
"Oh my god!" Masha yelped, her voice barely above a whisper.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Koa6DN99N
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomrEeqLV17
Maya rushed to his side, her hands trembling as she reached for him. "Babe…" she started, her voice breaking. "What the hell happened?"116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCE4u9ZkOVh
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LPegvBGQ2
"That's not my blood," Hendrick said, his tone low and hollow, as if he were speaking from somewhere far away.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42qTGEouKJ
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliFoxweH8R
Sasha's eyes darted toward the study, her voice trembling as she asked, "Where's Martin?"116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5AIdM47OaJ
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvsDz9ROz4
Hendrick hesitated, his gaze dropping to the floor. "I… I couldn't stop it," he said, his voice barely audible.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLCwbGXg84
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjuFnelZXU
"Couldn't stop what?" Sasha demanded, her voice rising.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5Bc5bjH5u
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckGrtnEYfv
"Martin is… dead," Hendrick said, the words hanging heavy in the air.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpxnNQ9eWY
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXTnMvNbYD
Sasha let out a shaky laugh, her voice trembling as she shook her head. "No," she said, her tone desperate. "You two are just pulling a prank on us. This isn't funny."116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyX6Wsk4I6Q
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGz4OIOlCa
She started for the study, her voice cracking as she called out, "Martin?" But I grabbed her arm, holding her back. Something in Hendrick's expression told me this wasn't a joke.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRfJiaW5js
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ242LSJivza
"Let me go," Sasha said, her voice firm but trembling. I shook my head, my grip tightening. "Let me go!" she shouted, her voice breaking as she began hitting my chest. "Why won't you let me go?!"116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsA51zV57W
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVsB9LDsEw
Her fists pounded against me, each blow weaker than the last until she finally broke down, collapsing into sobs. I pulled her close, holding her tightly as she cried into my shoulder, her body shaking with grief.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQOgPRcCN6
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgYyCRghFN
The room was silent except for Sasha's muffled sobs. Hendrick stood frozen, his face pale and his hands trembling. Maya stared at him, her expression a mix of fear and disbelief. Masha hovered nearby, her eyes wide with terror.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMzilWUOiP
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksE97MZDuy
Finally, Hendrick broke the silence, his voice low and urgent. "We need to get out of here."116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMzTYotqTX
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFSTp1cqIu
The words hung in the air, sharp and final. Sasha's sobs quieted, and she pulled away from me, her face streaked with tears. Maya stared at Hendrick, her expression a mix of fear and something else.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oaB8QKaqp
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbl3pLglXr
I nodded, my heart pounding. "Let's go. Now."116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQ1ChoECG9
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4prexjIT9e
We moved as one, rushing toward the front door. The mansion seemed to close in around us, the shadows stretching and twisting as if alive. The air grew colder with each step, and the faint hum of the air conditioning was replaced by an eerie silence.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXDQeOEWQr
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCC5swpVMn
Hendrick reached the door first, his bloodied hands grabbed the handle then twisted and pulled, but the door didn't budge. He yanked harder, his face pale. "It's stuck."116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwfUQ6NxVI
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡap2OzyNPMx
"Move," I said, pushing past him. I grabbed the handle and pulled with all my strength, but the door didn't budge. My stomach dropped. "It's locked."116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sGTy0PUJT
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Vw7Tbx8bj
"Evelyn has the keys," Masha said, her voice trembling. "She's not back yet."116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzuyixOr724
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfKrY3uIMq
"Then we break it down," Hendrick said, his tone desperate. He stepped back and kicked the door, the sound echoing through the mansion. The door didn't move.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CtrtXmI2h
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6nyV8axfJ
"Stop!" Maya said, her voice sharp. "You're going to attract whatever's that is."116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zUS9A5dUw
116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk06zHrgzyO
Hendrick froze, his face pale. The room fell silent, the weight of our situation pressing down on us. We were trapped.116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozkdp9m5zd
