Sixty Shades Of The Devil Chapter 1 Grief

Scarlett:

I hate myself for actually falling in love with someone I never should have. A murderer of my loved ones.

As hate and love tangled in my heart, I realised that the whole thing still wasn't as simple as I thought it was.

My whole world went grey the day my family begin to fall apart.

*****

How does it feel when one loses someone so dear to them? Someone they love with every single life in them. How does it feel when the one you love just slips out of your life with just a twinkle of an eye? That painful feeling is what we are experiencing right now.

I feel my entire world crumbling right in front of me and I am unable to do anything. How many more does my family have to suffer and for how long? This is too painful to handle.

My eyes narrow down to the frame that I hold tightly. Noise surrounds the atmosphere and I feel my tears pricking down my face. Loveable memories about Dora begin to play in my head and I couldn't help but wail harder. My sister was just a little innocent girl. Why does she have to die especially in a cruel way and especially at the hands of an unknown? We don't even know the culprit behind her death and why she was murdered by the person. No one knows.

" My condolences,"

I heard someone say from the living room. I am staying at the dining area because it is quite a distance from the additional trauma back there. I sniff in and bring the frame that contains my sister's picture close to my chest hugging it tight. Oh! Why now?

The pain of losing someone you love is something I never imagined. If only there was a way to go back in time, then I wouldn't hesitate to take her place.

Her death is a mystery. A shocking one. No one until now knows who did it. But could it be the person I think it is? But could it be the mysterious killer that everyone knows about? Could it be him? Mr. Strange!.

I've heard a lot of people talk about Mr. Strange and according to what I heard, he's a mysterious killer, probably out there waiting to ambush. When he kills, he leaves a mark 'S' on the victim with their blood and no one knows why. It's just absurd. Even the corps are yet to find out who he is.

I think he's responsible for my sister's death, but then there was no sign of any mark when she died. If it wasn't Mr. Strange, then who could it be?

I sniff in as I wipe my tears and keep the frame on the table. Tears still refuse to stop, they keep flooding out of my eyes, and I couldn't help but cry out.

" Scarlett,"

I heard someone call but I didn't respond or even turn to see who it was. Seconds later I hear the person walking up to me and pulling the chair next to me before sitting on it.

" Are you okay?"

No! I'm not... I am forced to yell at him but try to keep cool.

It's Sam, a co-worker.

" I'm sorry about your loss,"

I remain silent, not in the mood to speak to anyone.

" Here," He stretches a brown envelope to me. I simply stare blankly at it as I have no clue what it contains or maybe money.

" This is from boss Martinez, he said I should give it to you on behalf of the enterprise, the shooting has been postponed till further notice. You'll receive an email when we decide the day of the shooting, okay?"

I nod. At least I have some time to mourn my sister's death.

" Thank you,"

I mutter and he simply nods, staring at me with so much concern and pity in his eyes.

" I do appreciate..."

My voice cracks and I break down instantly. It is just too hard to bear.

" Hey, it's okay," He then leaves his seat and comes over to me and pulls me into his embrace. I settle down in his arms, a hug, that's something I desperately need.

" Everything is going to be fine. It's okay," he whispers to my ears as he gently smoothens my hair with his hands.

" Thank you,"

I close my eyes. I feel more relaxed than ever all thanks to Sam.

***

It's evening time and all the guests we had had already left. I am relieved of that. My mom is still in the living room while my brother, Max, had gone out of the house saying he needed some space while I sat lonely in my room just looking out the window. Oh! How devastating.

I sigh and decide to find something to do that can help with my thoughts about my sister. Apparently, I think reading a novel will do, at least something to take my mind out of its world.

I stand up and walk to pick one of my favorite novels, Fences. It's a novel I adore so much, always enjoying every bit of the pages, I can't get enough of it.

As I read through my book, I hear a car driving in. I take a look out the window and I see a red Mercedes Benz pulling over into the compound. I'm quite sure I haven't seen that kind of car in the neighborhood. Could they possibly be the new neighbors mom spoke about before the tragic news of my sister?

Woah!

New neighbors. I look out again and I see a man, quite old, pulling out of his car and going to the boot. He opens it and begins to offload it. I can tell how heavy the luggage is with the way he struggles to put it down.

" Ralph, Jessica, come down here and give me a hand."

He yells and I hear the annoyance that reflects in his voice. The door to the car swings open and simultaneously I see my brother walking in, a frown on his face and I couldn't help but roll my eyes. As he walks in two teenagers get out of the car, a teenage boy and a girl.

I couldn't see their faces, they weren't facing my direction.

My brother simply walked past them without saying a word. I shake my head as I watch him make his way into the house.

" Scarlett? Can I come in?"

That is my mom. Her voice is so pathetic that it makes me a little sad. It makes me want to cry. That woman has gone through a lot.

My dad and her had divorced some months ago. She found him cheating on her and instead of apologizing he filed for a divorce, My mom was so disheartened and broken by the news that she refused to do anything other than cry. She loved that man with every single life in her, she didn't deserve to be treated that way.

" Scarlett?" she calls again with a swing of the door.

" So you decided not to open the door? Is that it?"

She walks in with a frown.

" Sorry,"

I apologize frantically and I hear her sigh.

" Whatever. Anyways, Max is back and right now, I'm starving."

" Oh really, I can make dinner, your favorite if you want,"

I say jumping off the stool. My mom chuckles.

" Well... I do prefer your cooking,"

She says jokingly and I could not help but laugh silently knowing what she means by that. It's about Max cooking.

It's horrible!

He once made breakfast that gave everyone in the house a running stomach, it was horrible that we had to trash out the remaining. Oh! That day was pathetic.

" Come on then."

She says and glances out of the window.

" New neighbors,"

I mumble as I take in a sharp breath and walk out of the room leaving my mom behind.

***

Dinner is ready and served. Mom and Max sit beside each other while I sit across them playing with my fork and my spoon. I have no appetite to eat. Soon enough, an email popped on my phone and I didn't hesitate to check, I'm quite sure it's a message from my workplace.

I open it to see a short email and I immediately drain out after reading it. I am to resume work on Wednesday which turns out to be next tomorrow. I sigh as I run my hand through my hair with a long face. He hates me.

" You alright sweetie?"

My mom asks. I guess my sour mood is quite obvious.

" Boss Martinez wants me to resume work on Wednesday. I don't know what I ever did to him that he hates me so much. Am I that bad?"

I say in frustration practically pulling down my hair. My mom simply glanced at me as she chewed her food. As usual, I continued playing uninterested with my cutlery.

" He's your boss Scarlett and he alone owns the rules,"

I glance up at my mom like she's insane. Does he own the rules? What the hell is she trying to insulate?

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

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.
