“Xan, it was you and your family, step by step, that pushed me to this edge. You never really respected me, to you, I was just apdog trying to climb up the ranks of the Nightshade family. I’ve had enough of living like this. So now, don’t me me!”
“My dear sister, why so shocked? Matt and I have been an item for quite some time now, haha!
Bom with a silver spoon in your mouth, you’ve always been the darling of the family, getting whatever you wanted whenever you wanted it. And now, your own sister and the love of your life betray you, does it hurt so bad? Are you struggling to handle it? Well, now you know how it feels!

All these years, I’ve been nothing but a dignity–less pet in the Nightshade family, only there to cheer you up and cater to your moods. What adopted daughter? What sister? Nobody ever truly saw me as Ms. Miranda Nightshade!

Xanthea, in her flowing white gown, plummeted like a fallen butterfly, her gaze filled with hatred towards those two ghastly, grinning faces.
The news of the Nightshade family and Martinez family’s alliance spread through the entire high society. Alone, Orion flew to the secluded Snake Ind, where he submitted himself to the most advanced and brutal electroshock therapy avable.
He suffered from a condition, a relentless obsession and longing for someone, causing him agony like a thousand ants gnawing at his heart, making life unbearable. Only the electric shocks <b>could </b>offer him brief respite.
Yet, even so, on the day of Xanthea’s engagement ceremony inte October, he couldn’t help but check his phone. Only this time, he didn’t find wedding news, but an obituary.
Under the bright sun, in the silent cemetery, the solitary spirit of Xanthea floated above her grave, observing a tall figure walking through the lush pine forest.
He carried arge bouquet of vibrant, eye–catching irises, ones she fancied the most when she was alive. She tilted her head, puzzled as she watched him.
Orion? What was he doing here?
The dream suddenly shifted, like a flickering film reel, shing images of the manughing maniacally in front of her grave, his eyes bloodshot and feverish of him, in a frenzy, digging up her grave with his bare hands until they were bloodied; of him cradling her body, kissing it as if it were the most precious treasure; of him, like a vengeful demon, methodically torturing Matthew and Miranda, before pushing them off a skyscraper.
Finally, it settled on him<i>, </i>his eyes filled with tender warmth, he pressed a sharp de against his wrist, “Xannie, I’m here to join <b>you</b>.”
“No! Please, no! Orion, no! Orion!”
The bright red of his blood smeared the <b>de</b>, blurring her tearful eyes. Xanthea woke screaming, her body trembling in terror, the Swiss Army knife dropping from her hands with a ng.
The storage room was eerily silent, the only object in sight a safe adorned with a dried iris, its blue petals stark against the metal. Her fingers trembling, she entered her birthdate, and with a whoosh, countless photos spilled out.
