My father slapped me in the kitchen of the house I paid for, then told me I was lucky to have a roof over my head. For eight years, I paid $230,000 in fake rent while my parents used my money to fund my sister Meredith’s luxury life. They forgot one thing: I am an accountant, and I kept every receipt.

The sound of his hand hitting my face froze the room. My mother Diane stood beside the counter, pretending to wipe away tears. The same kitchen where I had cooked family dinners was now the place where they expected me to stay silent.

“You’re ungrateful, Tessa,” my father said. “We took you in when you had nothing, and this is how you repay us? By questioning your own father?”

I looked around at the expensive appliances, the renovated cabinets, and the framed family photos. Everyone saw a loving home. I saw eight years of stolen sacrifices.

I moved back in 2015 with $42,000 in student loans. My parents told me the family home was close to foreclosure and that my $2,400 monthly rent would help save it. I believed them. I worked sixty-hour weeks as an accountant, skipped vacations, bought cheap clothes, and convinced myself I was protecting my family.

Then Mrs. Dot, the neighbor who knew everything happening on our street, made one careless comment. She congratulated my father on the “Mortgage Burning Party” he held in 2014.

I smiled and thanked her, but my stomach dropped. The numbers did not make sense.

For two weeks, I searched records, reviewed payments, and followed every dollar. The truth was worse than I imagined. The mortgage had already been gone. My parents had not needed my rent to save the house. They needed my money to maintain a lifestyle they could not afford.

Designer handbags. Expensive dinners. Meredith’s high-society wedding to Bradley Ashford III.

My sister, the “perfect” CPA everyone admired, had helped build the lie. She knew exactly how to hide the money trail. I hired a forensic accountant named Marcus, and his report showed possible tax fraud, false records, and a pattern of deception.

But my family still believed I was powerless.

At Meredith’s engagement gala at the Ashford estate, my father grabbed my arm before I reached the podium.

“You go up there, thank Meredith for being a role model, and thank us for the roof over your head,” he whispered. “If you embarrass us in front of the Ashfords, you’re out tonight.”

The room was filled with tuxedos, diamonds, and powerful guests. My mother smiled. Meredith looked untouchable.

I walked to the microphone calmly. I did not scream. I did not cry.

“My father wants me to talk about the roof over my head,” I said. “So let’s talk about how much that roof actually cost, and who really paid for this party.”

The room went silent.

Meredith rushed toward the stage, but I was already opening the folder I had carried with me.

Inside were the records that could change everything. The Ashfords had heard one word they could not ignore: fraud.

Type FOLDER and I’ll continue.

"Next time, just don't bring the kid."

My mother's words landed at our Easter picnic like a knife hidden inside a smile. She wasn't talking about a stranger. She was looking directly at me and my six-year-old son, Mason, who sat beside the family table with chocolate on his chin and a handmade Easter card in his lap.

Twenty-three relatives heard her. Twenty-three adults watched a grandmother reject her own grandson in front of everyone. Nobody moved. Nobody defended him. My father stared at his chair. My aunts suddenly became interested in their plates. The silence was louder than her insult.

For thirty years, I had been the person everyone called when they needed something. I paid emergency bills, covered repairs, and fixed problems nobody else wanted to touch. I kept forgiving my mother's cruelty because I believed the family saying she repeated my entire life: blood is everything.

But then she looked at my little boy and acted like he was an inconvenience.

She adjusted her pearls and smiled. "Don't make this dramatic. Some people just don't belong at every gathering."

The adults around us stayed frozen. They knew exactly what she meant. They had watched her criticize Mason since he was born because he was not the child she wanted me to have. He was too energetic, too emotional, too much of a reminder that my life was no longer centered around pleasing her.

I opened my mouth, ready to apologize like I always did. I was already preparing the words that had protected everyone else's comfort while destroying my own.

Then a chair scraped across the patio.

Harper, my thirteen-year-old daughter, stood up.

She didn't yell. She didn't cry. She looked at my mother with a calmness that made the entire table uncomfortable.

"Say that again," Harper said.

My mother laughed softly. "Harper, sit down. This is an adult conversation."

"Then stop acting like a child," Harper replied.

Nobody breathed.

Mason grabbed my hand. His voice was barely a whisper. "Mama, does Grandma not want me here?"

That question broke something inside me.

I looked at my mother, and for the first time in my life, I wasn't afraid of disappointing her.

"If you cannot treat a six-year-old boy like family," I said, "then I have no reason to keep treating you like mine."

I took my children's hands and walked away from the table. I left behind the people who had spent years watching me absorb every insult to keep the peace.

I thought the hardest part was leaving that driveway.

I was wrong.

Three days later, my front door opened to a new battle. My mother arrived with a folder in her hand, and the confidence of someone who believed she still controlled my life.

She placed the folder on my kitchen table and smiled.

"You made your choice," she said. "Now you get to see what happens when you turn your back on this family."

I didn't cry. I didn't argue.

I reached for the folder.

And when I opened it, I saw the name written across the first page that changed everything.

Type FOLDER and I’ll continue.

My husband humiliated my mother at our Chicago dinner table, then demanded I stop helping his family. He thought he was protecting his money. He had no idea I had already canceled his mother's luxury card and opened the folder that would expose everything.

Ethan Hayes said it calmly, like he was announcing a rule everyone had to obey.

From now on, each of us takes care of our own parents.

He said it while sitting in our expensive townhouse, eating the dinner I paid for, drinking the wine I bought, and judging the woman who raised me.

My mother Margaret had injured her back. She needed treatment, but she never asked Ethan for anything. She had always been the person sending us vegetables from her greenhouse and handwritten notes hidden inside old recipe books.

Ethan looked at me across the marble table and said, Your mother has that old farmhouse in Wisconsin. Let's not pretend she has anything valuable. People like that always need someone else to rescue them.

I felt every word land.

Not because it was cruel. I had heard his cruelty before.

It hurt because he was wrong.

For ten years, Ethan believed my mother was barely surviving. He believed my freelance work was a harmless hobby. He believed his salary built our lifestyle.

He was wrong about all three.

The truth was hidden behind my silence.

I translated medical research, legal contracts, and corporate documents for clients across the country. I earned enough to support myself and more. I also quietly paid the luxury expenses of his mother, Vivian Hayes.

Vivian had a designer lifestyle she could not afford. Spa appointments. Expensive lunches. Private shopping trips. Luxury handbags.

For five years, every purchase went through a credit card connected to my private business account.

She convinced me to do it after the wedding.

Ethan works so hard, she told me. A good wife protects her husband's pride.

So I protected it.

I protected his pride while he underestimated me.

Then he raised his glass and delivered the sentence that changed everything.

I refuse to spend my money on your family of broke country people.

The room became silent.

The person sitting across from me was the same man I had supported for years. The same man whose mother had enjoyed a lifestyle funded by the woman he was insulting.

I placed my fork down.

From this moment on, I said, each of us handles our own parents. Money. Time. Responsibility. Everything.

Ethan smiled because he thought he had won.

Good. I'm glad you're finally being reasonable.

He did not know that ten minutes earlier, while he showered and hummed like nothing could touch him, I opened my banking app.

Vivian's authorized-user card was gone.

The next morning, she had a private shopping appointment on Michigan Avenue. She planned to buy a new handbag in front of friends who believed she was wealthy.

The card would decline.

Her perfect image would crack.

And when Ethan called me angry, I would not argue. I would listen.

Because I had spent years collecting proof.

Bank records. Payment history. Messages. Emails. Copies of mortgage documents. Evidence of my income. Evidence of Vivian's spending.

Most importantly, documents connected to my mother's land.

The land Ethan mocked.

The land his company desperately needed for its largest development project.

My mother did not own an old worthless property.

She owned the ground beneath the future of Sterling Urban Development.

At 2:13 a.m., I sent a message to our family attorney.

Tomorrow. Ten o'clock. Bring everything.

Ethan slept peacefully that night.

I sat in my office, opened the folder, and prepared for the morning when he would finally learn what he had never bothered to ask.

The folder was already waiting on my desk when the clock reached ten.

Type FOLDER and I’ll continue.

22/08/2026

My seven-month-pregnant body was under strict medical orders not to overexert itself, but at my sister-in-law’s wedding, she decided my sitting down was an insult to her.

Then her mother joined her.

They mocked me in front of the ballroom for being "weak," accused me of making the wedding about my pregnancy, and had no idea that my father-in-law’s attorney was standing twenty feet away with a folder in his hand.

Two weeks earlier, I had been rushed to an emergency room in Denver after a terrifying bleeding episode.

My doctor diagnosed me with placenta previa and gave me instructions Daniel and I took very seriously: avoid stress, avoid prolonged standing, and absolutely avoid overexertion.

Daniel wanted us to skip his younger sister Vanessa’s wedding entirely.

"We don’t owe anyone your health," he told me.

But his family already treated me like an outsider.

If I stayed home, I knew exactly what Patricia, his mother, would say.

That I was dramatic.

That I wanted attention.

That I was ruining Vanessa’s day without even showing up.

So I went.

The reception was in a luxury hotel ballroom outside Chicago, all chandeliers, white flowers, champagne, and people pretending every family at every table was happy.

Vanessa barely looked at me when we arrived.

Her eyes dropped immediately to my dress.

"Oh," she said with a little smile. "I didn’t realize maternity clothes came in formalwear now."

Patricia laughed beside her.

Daniel’s fingers tightened around mine.

I said nothing.

I had learned silence around his family years ago.

They had accused me of "trapping" Daniel into marriage after my first pregnancy, even though we had already been engaged.

Then I miscarried at twelve weeks.

Their cruelty didn’t stop.

Patricia had looked directly at me after the loss and said, "At least it happened early enough that you didn’t get too attached."

I remembered Daniel going completely still beside me.

I remembered deciding something that day too.

I would never again beg these people to understand my pain.

So at Vanessa’s wedding, I kept my head down.

I congratulated the couple.

I smiled for photographs.

I helped where I safely could.

And when the pressure across my lower abdomen started sharpening, I went to a chair near the back of the ballroom and sat down.

Daniel brought me water.

"We can leave," he whispered.

"Give me ten minutes."

That was apparently ten minutes too many.

Vanessa spotted me from across the dance floor.

She handed off her champagne, lifted the front of her wedding gown, and marched toward me in towering white heels.

Guests actually moved aside for her.

"Seriously?" she snapped.

The music was loud, but her voice cut straight through it.

"You’ve been sitting all night."

A few people turned.

Then a few more.

I looked up at her. "I’m just resting for a minute."

She folded her arms.

"Just because you’re pregnant doesn’t mean you can sit around while everyone else helps."

The people nearest us stopped talking.

Daniel leaned forward.

I touched his wrist before he could stand.

"My doctor told me to avoid too much standing," I said calmly.

That should have ended it.

Instead, Patricia appeared with a champagne glass in one hand and an expression that told me she had been waiting for an opening.

"Oh, please," she said. "Pregnancy isn’t an excuse to act weak."

Daniel’s chair scraped the floor.

"Mom."

Patricia barely glanced at him.

"When I was pregnant with you, I worked double shifts and cleaned my entire house. Women today act helpless over everything."

Vanessa smirked.

"Exactly. I’m wearing heels and managing my wedding just fine."

Someone at the next table stared down at his plate.

A bridesmaid suddenly became very interested in adjusting a flower arrangement.

Nobody intervened.

And that was almost worse.

The humiliation wasn’t private anymore.

It had an audience.

Vanessa stepped closer.

"You know, not every event has to revolve around your pregnancy."

I felt heat rise into my face.

But I didn’t cry.

I didn’t shout.

I didn’t explain the emergency room.

I didn’t describe the blood.

I didn’t repeat what my doctor had warned could happen if I pushed myself too hard.

I simply placed one hand over my stomach and looked at Daniel.

"I think we should go."

For the first time, Vanessa looked satisfied.

As if getting me out of her reception had been the point all along.

Patricia took a slow sip of champagne.

"Probably best," she said.

Then the microphone screamed with feedback.

Every head in the ballroom turned toward the DJ booth.

A tall man in a dark gray suit had stepped onto the small stage.

He wasn’t part of the wedding party.

He wasn’t holding champagne.

He was holding a slim leather folder.

For a second, I couldn’t place him.

Then Daniel stopped moving beside me.

"Michael?" he said under his breath.

Attorney Michael Reeves.

My father-in-law’s longtime lawyer.

Michael tapped the microphone once.

Vanessa’s smug expression disappeared.

Patricia lowered her glass.

And suddenly I noticed something I hadn’t seen before.

My father-in-law was sitting at the table nearest the stage, watching his wife and daughter without smiling.

Michael opened the folder.

He removed a sealed envelope and looked directly toward our table.

Patricia went pale.

Vanessa whispered, "Dad, what is he doing?"

My father-in-law didn’t answer.

Michael adjusted the microphone and read the name written on the front of the envelope.

Mine.

Type FOLDER and I’ll continue.

22/08/2026

My ex-husband abandoned me with premature triplets, then died a celebrated hero while his pregnant mistress sat beside his casket pretending to be his widow.

His parents had already ordered me to keep our children away. What they didn't know was that the four-star general arriving at Arlington wasn't there to honor their little performance.

Three days earlier, my former mother-in-law had sent me a message without a single word of sympathy.

“We’re burying our son at Arlington on Friday. Do not bring your charity-case children near this family. Scarlett is the only widow people need to see. Stay where you belong.”

I read it twice in my kitchen while my seven-year-old triplets ate breakfast ten feet away.

Their father, Garrett Cole, had just been reported killed during a classified combat mission.

Seven years earlier, Garrett had looked at me while our premature newborns were still consuming every dollar and hour we had and said, “I can’t live this life anymore.”

Then he left with another woman.

His family made their choice just as quickly.

In the courthouse hallway, his mother had adjusted her cashmere coat and told me, “You’re too ambitious to ever be a real wife. Garrett deserves a woman who understands her place.”

So I learned exactly where my place was.

At work.

Beside my children.

Inside a life I rebuilt without any of them.

By the time Garrett died, I had earned the rank of Captain as a military intelligence officer. My children knew discipline, kindness, and the sound of my boots crossing the kitchen before sunrise.

They barely knew their father.

Still, he was their father.

That was why I ignored the message.

Friday morning, freezing rain swept across Arlington Cemetery as I walked toward the burial site with my triplets beside me.

No one from Garrett’s family came to meet them.

His mother saw us first.

Her mouth tightened.

His father turned away.

At the front, Scarlett sat close to the flag-draped casket with one hand spread carefully across her pregnant stomach. Every few seconds she lowered her face into a tissue while cameras caught the angle.

She looked like the widow they had already decided she should be.

One of my children whispered, “Mom, are we allowed to be here?”

I felt something inside me go cold.

“Yes,” I said. “You are his children.”

We stayed in the back row.

Garrett’s mother eventually approached us, heels pressing into wet grass.

“I told you not to come.”

“I know.”

“You always needed an audience.”

I looked past her toward the casket.

“I brought his children to say goodbye.”

Her eyes dropped to them for less than a second.

“Don’t make this uglier than it already is.”

Then she returned to Scarlett.

I didn't argue.

I didn't tell anyone my rank.

I didn't explain my career or remind them that the woman they had dismissed as too ambitious had spent years serving the same country now honoring their son.

I simply stood behind my children while the ceremony began.

Scarlett cried louder when the honor guard moved.

Garrett’s mother kept one arm around her shoulders.

The message was unmistakable.

This was their family.

We were an inconvenience standing in the rain.

Then engines sounded behind us.

A black military SUV stopped beside the cemetery road.

The mood changed immediately.

A senior officer stepped out, followed by an aide.

Four stars caught the gray light on his uniform.

People straightened.

Garrett’s father blinked in surprise.

Scarlett wiped her cheeks and sat taller.

Even Garrett’s mother looked suddenly pleased, as though the general’s arrival were one more honor being added to her son’s funeral.

I recognized him.

And when his eyes found me in the back row, he recognized me too.

He said something quietly to the officer beside him.

The aide glanced down at a folder.

Then at me.

Garrett’s mother noticed.

For the first time that morning, uncertainty crossed her face.

The service continued, but now she kept looking over her shoulder.

Scarlett whispered something to her.

I couldn't hear the answer.

When the honor guard finished folding the flag, the general stepped forward personally.

Scarlett lifted her chin and placed both hands over her stomach.

Garrett’s mother moved half a step closer to her, already preparing for the moment everyone expected.

The general took the folded flag.

Then he walked toward them.

One step.

Two.

Three.

And kept going.

Scarlett’s hands slowly fell from her stomach.

The general passed her chair.

Passed Garrett’s mother.

Passed his father.

He crossed the wet grass toward the back row until he was standing directly in front of me and my children.

His boots stopped inches away.

I straightened automatically.

So did he.

Then the four-star general raised his hand and saluted me.

“Captain.”

Behind him, someone gasped.

Garrett’s mother went completely still.

The general lowered his salute, turned slightly toward the folded flag in his hands, and the aide beside him opened the folder.

The first name was about to be read.

Type FLAG and I’ll continue.

21/08/2026

My stepbrother demanded money while I sat in a gynecologist’s office with fresh stitches—and when I finally told him no, he hit me in front of the doctor.

What Derek didn’t know was that this time, the bruises, the cameras, and the people watching were about to matter.

I sat on the edge of the exam table with one hand pressed to my lower stomach and the other holding the paper gown shut over my knees.

The room smelled like disinfectant. Everything was bright, white, and painfully public.

Derek Vance stood near the door like he owned it.

He leaned toward me and lowered his voice just enough to make the threat feel private.

"Pay somehow, or get out."

Dr. Amelia Rhodes stopped writing.

Nurse Callie Freeman looked up from the counter.

I could hear the paper beneath me crinkle when my legs started shaking.

For years, that sound would have been enough to make me apologize.

I would have told Derek I would find the money. I would have promised to work more hours. I would have agreed to almost anything just to keep him from getting angry.

But Dr. Rhodes had spent the last twenty minutes looking at bruises I had tried to explain away.

She had asked why one mark looked older than another.

She had asked why I flinched whenever someone moved near the door.

And she had asked me the question Derek hated most.

"Do you feel safe at home?"

I had lied.

Then Derek came into the room and answered it for me.

"No," I said.

One word.

Quiet.

Clear.

The first full word I had said to him in years without putting "sorry" somewhere around it.

Derek’s smile vanished.

He glanced toward the open doorway, then at Dr. Rhodes.

"You think you’re better than this?" he asked me.

I said nothing.

Dr. Rhodes stepped between us.

Her gray-blond hair was pulled into a tight bun, and her expression had changed from concern to something colder.

"Sir, you need to leave this room now."

Derek laughed once.

"This is family business."

"I said leave."

His eyes came back to me.

That was the look I knew.

At home, it usually meant I had seconds to start apologizing.

I didn’t.

Derek moved.

His hand struck my face so hard that the room tilted sideways.

My shoulder hit the metal step beside the examination table before my ribs hit the floor.

Pain tore through my body.

I tasted blood.

Callie screamed.

Derek stood over me, breathing hard.

"She lies," he said. "She always lies."

I curled around my ribs automatically.

I was waiting for the next blow before I remembered where I was.

Not his house.

Not behind a locked bedroom door.

A clinic in Columbus, Ohio.

A hallway camera outside.

Nurses ten feet away.

A doctor who had already seen too much.

Dr. Rhodes grabbed the wall phone.

"Security. Now. And call 911."

Derek turned on her.

"You don’t know what she did."

Dr. Rhodes stared straight back at him.

"I know what I saw."

The door burst open.

Two security guards rushed in while Callie dropped beside me.

"Madison, stay with me," she said. "Don’t move."

Derek backed toward the corner, but his mouth kept moving.

"She owes me! She’s been living under my mother’s roof for free!"

Nobody argued with him.

That seemed to make him angrier.

He was used to my silence protecting him.

Here, my silence was doing something different.

It was letting everyone hear him.

Red and blue light began flashing through the small window in the door.

Officer Grant Miller entered, took one look at my swollen cheek and bleeding lip, then turned toward Derek.

"Put your hands where I can see them."

For the first time in years, fear crossed Derek’s face.

The officer reached toward his handcuffs.

Derek looked past him and locked eyes with me.

Then he smiled again.

Not because he thought he could escape.

Because he still believed there was one thing he could say that would make me too ashamed to speak.

"Fine," Derek said. "Ask her what happened last night. Ask her why she really needed those stitches."

Officer Miller stopped.

Dr. Rhodes looked at me.

Derek’s smile widened.

And the tiny red light on the officer’s body camera kept blinking.

Type TRUTH and I’ll continue.

21/08/2026

The woman who expected to inherit the restaurant poured wine over my uniform, tore open my blouse in front of two hundred guests, and laughed, "Trash belongs in the kitchen."

Then billionaire Adrian Vale saw the crescent-shaped birthmark over my heart.

His chair slammed backward.

"Stop!"

Celeste's smile vanished.

I had spent twenty years learning how to survive moments like that.

My earliest memory was a bus station with rain hammering the roof. I was five years old. A woman in a gray coat told me to wait beside a vending machine.

She never came back.

The state gave me the surname Ellis. Foster homes taught me not to unpack too quickly. Shelters taught me to sleep with my shoes beside me. Later, I scrubbed floors, washed dishes, mended uniforms, stocked warehouses, and accepted every shift nobody else wanted.

At twenty-five, I became a waitress at Bellamy House, one of Manhattan's most exclusive restaurants.

But carrying plates wasn't all I did.

I repaired the reservation system when it crashed. I handled inventory software. I noticed numbers other people ignored.

And I noticed Celeste.

She was Adrian Vale's goddaughter, a diamond-covered socialite who treated Bellamy House as if she already owned it. Everyone believed she would inherit Adrian's interest in the restaurant one day.

Celeste believed it most of all.

She made servers pay for glasses guests broke. Tips disappeared after private banquets. Rare bottles were charged to charity accounts that never held charity events.

Managers looked away.

I didn't.

For months, I quietly saved dates, receipts, inventory records, witness names, and copies of instructions Celeste thought nobody would ever question.

That night, she entered Bellamy House with six laughing friends and enough cameras pointed at her to make the dining room feel like a stage.

Her seventeen-year-old cousin was already visibly intoxicated when Celeste snapped her fingers at me.

"Champagne."

I kept the bottle against my side.

"I can't serve him."

Her friends went quiet.

Celeste slowly turned toward me. "Excuse me?"

"He's seventeen, and he's intoxicated."

She smiled without warmth.

"Do you know who I am?"

"Yes," I said. "That is why I said no."

The tray hit the marble before I understood she'd slapped it from my hands.

Every head in the dining room turned.

A manager near the bar stared at the floor.

Celeste picked up a glass of red wine.

"You people always forget your place."

She poured it over my head.

Cold wine ran through my hair, down my face, and across my white blouse while her friends laughed nervously.

I didn't move.

That seemed to anger her more.

"Trash belongs in the kitchen," she said.

Then she grabbed my blouse.

Fabric ripped.

Gasps rolled through the dining room.

I caught the torn cloth against my chest, but not fast enough.

The crescent-shaped birthmark above my heart was visible.

A chair scraped violently across the marble.

"Stop!"

Adrian Vale was standing at the center table.

He looked as if someone had struck him.

His eyes weren't on Celeste.

They were on the birthmark.

Then his gaze dropped to the small silver locket around my neck—the only possession found with me when I was abandoned at that bus station twenty years earlier.

Celeste stepped between us.

"Uncle Adrian, don't be ridiculous. She's obviously trying something."

He barely seemed to hear her.

He crossed the dining room slowly.

"What is your name?" he asked me.

"Mara Ellis."

His hand began to tremble.

"Ellis," he repeated. "Who gave you that surname?"

"The state."

Around us, two hundred guests had gone silent.

Celeste grabbed his arm.

"She works here. You don't know anything about her."

Adrian pulled free.

His face had lost all color.

"That mark," he whispered. "My daughter had that mark."

Celeste froze.

I felt the locket against my skin.

For twenty years, I had wondered why somebody left it with me.

Adrian stared at it as though he recognized something I didn't.

"May I see that?"

Before I could answer, Celeste snapped, "Security. Get her out of here. Now."

Nobody moved.

Her voice sharpened.

"I said remove her!"

The head of security looked toward Adrian instead.

That tiny hesitation changed the room.

Celeste noticed it too.

"This restaurant will be mine," she hissed. "Everyone here works for me eventually."

She turned back to me.

"And you won't work anywhere in this city when I'm finished."

I had been threatened by people with more money than I could imagine before.

Money frightened me less than hunger used to.

And hunger had already failed to destroy me.

I reached beneath the service station.

Celeste laughed. "What are you doing?"

I lifted my phone.

The recording timer was still running.

Her expression changed.

Months of receipts, witness statements, inventory discrepancies, and backups were already stored somewhere she couldn't reach.

Tonight, she had given me something even cleaner: her own voice, her own threats, her own assault, captured while a dining room full of witnesses watched.

But Adrian wasn't looking at my phone anymore.

He was staring at the locket in my other hand.

"Open it," he said.

I pressed my thumbnail into the tiny clasp.

Across from me, Celeste went pale.

Type LOCKET and I’ll continue.
