The Never Ending Story - A Series Of Collective Tales

Prologue

The rain poured incessantly throughout the night, drenching the road giving a tough time for the people ever since morning. A tall, dark figure loomed over the road with a black over coat and knocked the door of the mansion. An old lady with wrinkled skin and shallow eyes opened the door. She was surprised to see him at the door past midnight but let him in. He walked inside and went straightway to the bedroom.

The room was lit with a dim bulb covered with wall hangings and portraits of unicorns. She loved unicorns. Their frail hair, milk-white skin and the contradictory horn on their bulbous head, she loved every bit of the creature. The stranger made his way to the bed and leaned over her body. She looked like an angel with the moonlight accentuating her feminine form. Her breathing was slow and each time she breathed in, her fully blossomed breasts heaved up and down in unison which was a sight to behold. 

The man bent lower planting a soft kiss on her forehead and scooped her into his arms. The movement disturbed her sleep and before he could rest her back, she woke up. With dreamy eyes, she fluttered them open to look at him and smiled.

“Oh, I wasn’t expecting you love.”

“Same here,” smiled the man and continued, ‘I love you.’

She drifted off into a peaceful slumber and the man walked out of the room after a short break. The house maid walked up the stairs after awhile to help her mistress. Moments later, her loud shriek echoed outside which was suppressed in the loud thud of the rain. The man turned around to see the mansion with a wicked smile on his face.

The lady was on the bed covered in blood with a knife stabbed in her heart, her white gown turned red with the stains. She breathed her last in the hands of her lover. She didn’t know what was coming upon her moments before. She trusted her love with heart and soul but when he stabbed her mercilessly, her heart felt elated to embrace death from the hands of her beloved man.
