The Dawn Falls Chapter 1 New Home

PART ONE: NEW HOME

CHAPTER 1

Before the sun seeps between the dark ash clouds, a group of wolves attacked our home.

Our neighbors were talking about wolves nonstop since the day that I remember. I thought it was a myth because I haven't seen one. But now, I've seen not one but five of them. They all looked hungry with their saliva almost dropping from their pointy teeth.

I can't do anything about it. I'm weak. All I do was stare at my parents, trying to block the main door by leaning heavy objects we could find. Felix, my oldest brother, was the one helping them while Jay held my hand tight.

"Jay, hide your sister!" Mom cried and her voice almost broke. "Go inside your rooms, make sure that you lock the doors. Don't go outside whatever you hear."

"But mom..." Jay didn't dare to continue on his words when Felix shot him with a deadly glare. He turned to me and held my hands tighter. "Let's go, Catherine."

He tried to pull my body away from my parents but I stayed frozen in my place. I didn't want to leave them. If the wolves attacked them, I'll fight them as well.

"They're five and we're five. Jay, we can fight them with knives and other things we have in our home." I walk towards the kitchen, finding a weapon to use but Jay's grasp hardened.

"Don't be stupid, Catherine. We have to go. We humans don't have the capability to face those wolves."

"Catherine, go with your brother now!"

My dad screamed at me. My mother was glaring at me as if she was going to slap me if I don't follow Jay. Jay was grabbing my arms tight and it hurt me. They were all mad at me, and I don't know why.

When they finish blocking the door, Felix strode towards me and compressed my arm. He was the harsh one and tougher one between him and Jay.

His fingers scratched through my skin as he pulled me upstairs. That's when I knew I have to follow them. I didn't have the strength to pull myself back from him. Jay followed behind us. Were we leaving our parents downstairs with those wolves?

I would've to stop Felix from pulling me upstairs, but I also knew that he'll be madder at me when I do that.

We're inside my room. Pillows scattered on my bed and my assignment that I decided to do when I woke up the next morning was still on my table. Felix roamed his eyes around my room, searching for a place to hide.

"The bed is a good option," Jay suggested.

Felix didn't dare to speak. Instead, he pushed my back so I could crouch under the bed. I hesitated to hide under it but he pushed me again. Glad that I'm slim so hiding under the bed was successful. After I hid in the middle of my bed, Felix and Jay also crawled on both of my sides, pressing me between them. Their perfume was so strong and that was the only thing that I can smell.

We were all breathing hard while we were in our position. With every slam of those wolves on our door, our heart throbbed faster. I hoped that mom and dad were already hiding somewhere else. They said that those wolves will disappear when the sun had risen. It's fucking 5 AM in the morning and I don't know the exact time of sunrise today.

Then I heard screams from downstairs, from our parents. I don't what to think when I hear them screaming in pain. I hope they weren't hurt but surely they are.

"Mom and Dad," I cried in a low monotone voice.

"Don't make any noise," Felix said.

How can I not make any noise when my parents were already dying on our ground floor?

I covered my ears but the screaming of pain downstairs was still audible in here. Felix and Jay weren't able to do anything but to pursed their lips. There were crystal clear tears that were ready to fall from their eyes. Like me, they knew that was happening downstairs.

I want to go downstairs and help them. I don't want to stay under this bed and let my parents die because of those wolves.

Everything stopped, sunlight peeked inside our room. It lighted our room with its natural charm. The golden rays of it blighted the tears crawling down my face.

"Is it done?" I asked, my voice was about to break.

Jay only nodded and placed his hands above my shoulders. Felix was the first one who got out of the bed, and he held a bar of metal that was approximately a meter long. Jay also got out and I followed him. He placed his arms on my shoulders and that made me breathe though I'm still worried about my parents.

We were shaking as we walked to the stairs. Felix froze as his eyes drifted downstairs. My forehead creased and I was curious what he was staring at right now. And when I saw it, I wished I did not dare to look at it.

They were the dead bodies of my parents, looked like they were eaten by a group of wild animals.

...

Everything that happened was fast. Felix said that we should pack all our things and we need to leave the day before the sun sets again. He said it was dangerous to stay. We left our home like a mess and no one dared to clean it. When we already packed everything, we rode Felix's car with bags in its trunk.

I don't know where we are going, but it seemed that Felix knew the way where we were going.

"Why did we leave Mom and Dad's bodies? Why are we leaving?" I asked, letting my tears out from my bloodshot eyes. Felix didn't dare to even glance at me, but Jay turned to me.

"For good. Don't worry, Felix and I will fix everything once we settled into our new home."

That wasn't a good answer. I want answers. Why are we leaving the home in which we stayed for sixteen years? Why does a group of wolves attack us? Why does it seem that they don't care that our parents are dead?

"Why does the two of you are not reacting? Mom and Dad died! It seems that nothing happens based on your face!" I screamed at them and I don't care if they were older than me. Greater age doesn't mean that they have greater knowledge than me. I admit that I was younger but not a dumb person like them who doesn't react to the death of our parents.

"Shut up, Cath!" Felix screamed in his deep voice. Now he's mad at me, his eyes were blazing fire as I saw it from the mirror in front of the car. He focused on the way and his teeth were grating each other as if he's ready to bite me.

"Just answer me!"

"Cath, don't..." Jay tried to stop me.

"I need answers and I don't want to look like the only one who's reacting that our parents died."

"CATHERINE! I TOLD YOU TO SHUT THE FUCK YOUR FUCKING MOUTH!" I pursed my lips when he screamed at me. "You're not the only one hurting, but we have to move or all five of us will be found dead in our home."

I shouldn't dare to speak more if I don't want to drive my brothers mad at me again... They love but I crossed my boundaries and maybe this wasn't the right moment to seek answers for what happened.

Our car entered a small town with a sign 'Dusk and Dawn' on its entrance. Citizens of the town glanced at our car, knowing that we were newcomers. My brother drove, not having a doubt on where to turn and break his way. It seemed that he got here before and I don't have any clue about that.

My two brothers were already working. Felix works in a small business enterprise, near our previous home. While Jay works whenever there's an opportunity for him to work. He graduated with a degree in English, but the competition in the community college was high. He did not qualify.

We weren't poor but we're not rich. I wanted to work in an office someday though the city was far enough from our home. Now that my parents died I don't know what to do with my life anymore. I lost a reason to strive in my life and to pursue my dreams for them.

There was a small park, a mini-hospital, and a high school inside the town. The name Dusk and Dawn for a town were cool enough to catch my attention. I hoped I would enjoy my stay here, but I guess I won't.

Felix parked the car in front of one of the suburban homes which were definitely smaller than what we had. It only has one floor and a small garden outside. Felix was the first one out of the car. I watched him stride to the old woman who smiled at him and kissed his cheek.

I swear that wasn't our grandmother.

"Are you okay?" Jay asked me. "I'm always telling you to not make him mad."

"I'm frustrated earlier. No one's answering me. We lost mom and dad and we got into this town as if nothing happened."

"We're also hurting, Cath," he said. "But the danger is on our old home. If we don't escape during the day, then our bodies would be like what Mom and Dad had become."

"Then why there are wolves? Why did they attack us? Why we're here in this town?"

"It isn't the right time for the answers to your question, but we're here for your safety. We're safe in here." He smiled at e before leaving me alone inside the car.

Why are we safe in here? What exactly we're in here? What's this place?

HONEY MULLINS

Six years ago, I was a naive girl sold by my father to the powerful Sanders estate, only to be tossed onto the streets after a brutal assault they labeled "marital infidelity." I fled the country pregnant and broken, hiding from the shadow of a husband I had never even met. Now, I've returned to New York with my triplets to sign the final divorce papers and disappear forever. But Archibald Sanders-the man I was told was a crippled recluse-intercepted us with the cold precision of a predator. He didn't see the woman his family destroyed; he saw a gold-digger who had shamed his name. His security team hunted us to a grimy motel, using tactical force to snatch my children away and drag me to his glass-walled empire. In his office, he loomed over me, demanding a DNA test and threatening to throw me in prison while my babies were lost to the foster system. He was convinced I'd cheated, yet he stared at my sons with a haunting confusion, unable to ignore the stormy blue eyes that were a perfect mirror of his own. I stood there, paralyzed by his scent-the sharp tang of rain and expensive leather that triggered the icy dread of my worst nightmares. How could he accuse me of betrayal when he felt exactly like the monster who had shattered my life in that dark hotel room? "I'll sign anything," I sobbed, "just give me my kids." But the game changed when my five-year-old son hacked the tower's security, holding the skyscraper hostage to save me. In the chaos, a fragile, silent boy-Archibald's secret son-wandered into the room and reached for me as if I were his missing soul. Archibald's face turned to stone as he tore up the agreement and locked the doors. "Until I find out why my son is looking at you like that," he growled, "you aren't going anywhere."

The Silent Bride's Billion Dollar Contract

The Silent Bride's Billion Dollar Contract

Landslide

My bank account showed exactly $42.18, and my student loan notifications were flashing red. I lived in a sweltering Queens apartment with my Aunt Lydia, where the air was thick with the smell of stale frying oil and the constant threat of being homeless. Lydia handed me a grainy photo of a man twice my age and told me she had already "sold" me to him. He was a dry cleaner looking for a wife, and in exchange for my hand, he would pay off her credit cards and my debt. If I didn't show up for the date that night, my boxes would be on the curb by midnight. I arrived at the cafe in a state of panic, my selective mutism making it impossible to even breathe. In the crowded room, I accidentally sat at the wrong table. Instead of the man from the photo, I found myself facing Gerhard Holcomb—the cold, terrifyingly handsome billionaire whose family owned the very museum where I worked. He didn't send me away; instead, he studied my trembling hands and offered me a different deal: a two-year contract marriage, a two-million-dollar payout, and a strict clause forbidding any children. I signed the papers and moved into his Park Avenue penthouse, thinking I was finally safe. But when I went back to the old apartment to retrieve the only memento of my dead parents, Lydia lashed out, leaving me bleeding from a head wound. Gerhard’s retaliation was absolute—he had her arrested and her building foreclosed on within hours, claiming he was simply "protecting his assets." As I recovered in his silent, glass-walled home, I saw a call from a famous socialite flash on his phone, and a cold truth settled in my gut. I wasn't just a wife; I was a placeholder, a silent shield used to fend off the women from his past. I looked at the massive pink diamond on my finger and realized the silence I had lived in my whole life was about to become my most expensive prison. I had traded a life of poverty for a high-stakes game of shadows, and now I had to survive the man who claimed to own me.

He Thought I Was A Doormat, Until I Ruined Him

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.
