Hudson walked over and took Cortney’s hand from hers.

“You go back alone. Cortney stays here tonight.”

He’d seen the lack of affection. He knew Amara was still thinking about Lyndon, and that Cortney was just a reminder of a life she was trying to hide.

After what she’d done to Ronald, and after leaving the girl alone so many times, he didn’t trust her. Cortney was safe here.

Amara’s face went stiff. She tried to play the “loving mother” role one last time.

“Cortney, baby, do you want to stay here?”

She squeezed the girl’s hand too hard. Cortney whimpered, pulling away to hug Hudson’s leg.

“Yes!! want to stay with Uncle Hudson!”

Amara felt a surge of resentment, but she quickly masked it. If Cortney was here, it gave her a permanent reason to visit.

He’s using the child to keep me close, she realized.

She smiled. “Fine. Be a good girl for Uncle Hudson, okay?”

Cortney hid behind Hudson’s legs.

‘I will, Mommy.”

Vight fell. The house was pitch black.

Amara emerged from her master bedroom in her own home, wearing a thin, silk nightgown.

She was going to find Hudson. She was alone, Cortney was gone… it was the perfect night to close the distance.

She walked down the stairs, a flirtatious smile on her lips.

But as she reached the landing, a faint red light flickered in the corner of her eye.

Then, a hollow, ethereal voice echoed through the massive, empty house.

‘Amara… Amara…”

She froze. “Who’s there?”

She thought she was imagining it. But the voice grew louder, sounding as if it were right in her ear.

“Amara… Amara…”

She recognized the voice. Her legs gave out, and she hit the floor with a heavy thud.

“Ronald?!

“You… you’re dead! You can’t be here!”

The voice continued, sounding mournful and cold. “Amara, I loved you. Why did you work with Lyndon to destroy me? It hurts… it hurts so much…”

“Ah!”

Amara shrieked, scrambling into the corner.

“I gave you everything! Why did you kill me?”

Amara clutched her head, her hands over her ears.

“Get away from me! Leave me alone! Go away!”

“Amara… Amara…”

The voice was everywhere, looping in her mind.

“Aah! Stop it!”

“Go away! I didn’t do it! It was Lyndon! Lyndon killed you! I only killed Lyndon to avenge you! Go find him in hell! Leave me alone!”

“Amara… Amara…”

The sound was relentless. Suddenly, a shadow flickered across the wall-a man’s silhouette covered in blood.

“No!”

She slammed her head against the wall, desperate to break the hallucination.

The sharp pain cleared her mind for a second.

She scrambled to her feet, abandoning her shoes, and bolted for her bedroom. She dove under the covers, shaking uncontrollably.

‘I’m sorry, Ronald! Don’t come back! Please don’t come back!”

On his laptop screen, Hudson clicked the simulation off.

de lit a cigarette and stared out the window, his brow a deep, jagged canyon.

de never expected it. Amara had really killed Lyndon Spenser…

de finished his cigarette and saved the recording into a hidden folder.

de scrolled through the files. He had a dozen recordings now. Evidence of her negligence, her lies, and now, a confession of nurder.

He had everything he needed to destroy her.

The next day, Metamorphosis Studio.
