The stench of blood was too strong and as Aylin ventured inside the mansion, it became intense and repulsive. Aylin's heart thundered madly in terror and she continued to walk further carefully while she held onto her sword. Terrifying thoughts filled her mind as she prayed for her family to be safe.

Her siblings' innocent faces and her aunt's helpless expression flashed through her mind and she increased her pace, not caring about the lack of light in the manor. The place was eerily quiet and Aylin's heart dropped in trepidation. She squinted her eyes when she could no longer see her path. But before she could take another step, she stumbled on her feet and almost fell if not for her quick reflexes.

Aylin did not even have to see to find out that someone was lying unconscious on the floor and she panicked immediately, her eyes dilating in fear. In an instant, she rushed towards the shelf where the candles were placed and lit them up, her hands shivering slightly while her feet turned cold. Cold sweat trickled down her spine as she returned and she almost dropped the candle in her hand on seeing her brother, lying face down covered in a pool of blood.

"Zeev," Aylin shouted and dropped to her knees, not caring about the candle wax that fell on her hands. The light burn did not faze her as she stared at her brother. Her eyes widened in panic as she placed the candle beside her and she pulled him towards her, patting his face eagerly.

"Zeev, wake up. It is me, Aylin. I am here. Wake up, brother."

But there was no response from him whatsoever. He did not even budge when she slapped him hard to wake him up. Aylin's face paled and she checked his breathing, only for her eyes to widen immediately after. Neither was he breathing nor was his heart beating. His body was turning cold and blue slowly and Aylin's tears gushed out when the realization hit her.

"Zeev," She screamed as she hugged the young man, not caring about the blood around her. Her tears kept flowing while she continued to call her brother, hoping against hope that he would return to her somehow.

Aylin waited desolately for a miracle to happen. But it was all her wishful thinking. Her brother was gone and nothing she did could bring him back.

'Siena,' Her sister's face appeared in her mind and she looked around her frantically to find her. But Aylin could not locate anything from where she was. So she lowered her brother gently before she picked up the candle, wiping her tears in the meanwhile. She did not even care about the blood smeared on her face as she hastened her footsteps in her search for her sister.

"Siena," She shouted, wishing for her sister to be safe and sound. Dread filled her heart when she did not get any response and she shook her head, unable to accept the truth.

'No, no, no, Siena. Please be safe. Please.' She begged in her mind as she approached one of the rooms.

A sigh of relief escaped her lips when she saw her sister on her bed and Aylin's quickened her pace, rejoicing to find her here.

But she stopped short when she noticed the white duvet that covered her sister's small body. Streaks of red were covering the clean clothing and the candle in Aylin's hand dropped as she registered what had happened.

The candle rolled on the floor but was not extinguished and ghastly shadows fell on the wall.

Aylin scurried towards her bed and watched the little girl, albeit being unable to make out most of her face due to the darkness.

"Please, please, please. Siena, please wake up." She begged and hugged her sister. Her voice was hoarse and Aylin had no idea what she was speaking. She felt the warm blood on her hands and she shook her head in denial.

"You cannot leave me, Siena. Please. Please wake up, darling. Do not scare me anymore."

All her efforts were futile. There was no response from the girl in her arms and Aylin's cries turned louder as time passed. All of a sudden she felt exhausted and her eyes lost their focus. Her heart was filled with immense grief and regret as tears kept flowing down her cheeks.

"Ay-Aylin," She heard a groan and Aylin's eyes blinked as she wondered if she was now hearing sounds.

"Ah," She heard the voice again and Aylin looked around.

"Aunt Martha, are you here?"

"Aylin, is that rea-really..."

Aylin heard her aunt sucking in a deep as though she was in anguish and she lowered her sister on the bed, her eyes searching for her aunt in the meanwhile.

"Aunt Martha, can you hear me? Are you here?" Aylin picked up the candle as she looked around again and was stunned to find her aunt leaning against the wall as she sat beside the bed. She was clutching her stomach tight while she bit on her lip to bear with her pain.

"Aunt Martha," Aylin rushed to her once and held her in her arms, shocked to find her aunt in such a miserable situation. But unlike her sibling, she was at least breathing and Aylin let out a sigh of relief.

"Hold on, Aunt Martha. I will bring the physician right away." She was just about to leave when the old woman stopped her and shook her head.

"Please stay..stay, Aylin." She forced out the words as sweat dripped down her forehead.

"Aunt Martha, please."

"I do not...not have much...much time, child."

"Do not speak this way, please. Do not leave me." Aylin cried as she held her aunt in her arms before her eyes lowered to her severely injured stomach.

"What happened, Aunt Martha? Who did this? Zeev and Siena..." Aylin burst out into tears as she took her siblings' names and Martha too started crying immediately after.

"They are gone, Aylin. They are dead. That monster killed those poor children." Martha sniffled as she recalled all that had happened. "He did not care when he heard their wails."

"Who was it, Aunt Martha?"

Martha shook her head but hissed when her head turned heavy. "I do not know, Aylin. I...could not see who it was. He entered the room and killed Siena right in front of my eyes and I could not stop him. All I could see were his eyes and they were pitch black, completely black."

"We will talk about this later, Aunt Martha. Please hold on. I will get the physician." Aylin tried again but Martha refused to listen to her.

"His face was covered and he was nothing less than the devil, Aylin. Please forgive me, Aylin. I could not save...." Martha did not finish for her heart had stopped beating and her soul had escaped her body.
