Miss Katherina Guilford strolled down the red velvet stairs of the castle. The crimson red matched the shade of ruby red blood that would later be found on the cobblestone path to the entrance of the guarded castle. Katherina joined the table with her family for breakfast, and as she expected, they blabbed on about how she needs a husband to lead the future kingdom. Katherina, the very observant p...

Adam and Melody has just finished their dinner, it was their 1 year anniversary of dating. It was nothing special, but Adam still tried his best to prepare a good meal with the money they had in their joint bank account.

“I have been seeing a car, sitting in the driveway of my neighbors yard for around fifteen days now. It never moves. Its sketchy.” I say to my therapist.

“You’re paranoid, it must be a work car that only drives during the night.” She answers.

“I am not paranoid, I have been up all night before. I watch that very car.” I respond. “I know there is something wrong with her,” I explain to my therapist...
