Chapter 1 the tattooed boy
The first day of the new term felt like every other—loud voices, the smell of chalk, and the endless buzz of gossip in the hallways. Aria didn’t care. She walked past them all like a shadow, her eyes cold, her headphones blasting music no one else could hear.
She had one rule:don’t let anyone close.And so far, she had never broken it.
But then he showed up.
Jecen.The name spread through the halls before she even saw him.The new boy with ink crawling up his arm, a half‑smile that looked more like a dare, and eyes so dark they seemed to swallow light. Every girl in school was already whispering his name, brushing their hair, and straightening their skirts when he passed.
Every girl except Aria.
When their eyes finally met across the hallway, it was like a spark she didn’t ask for. She turned away, but too late—he was already moving toward her.
“You,” he said, leaning against her locker as if it belonged to him. “What’s your name?”
She shoved her books inside without looking at him.“Not interested.”
That made him laugh, low and dangerous.“Every girl here is interested,” he said.“I’m notevery girl.”
For a moment, his smile faded. His eyes narrowed, studying her like she was a puzzle he couldn’t solve.
Then, faster than she expected, he leaned close—so close she felt the heat of his breath.“You’ll be mine,” he whispered. “You just don’t know it yet.”
Her heart hammered, but she refused to flinch.“You think you’re a problem for me?” she said, staring him dead in the eye.“No,” he smirked. “I think I’m the only problem you can’t ignore.”
The bell rang, but neither of them moved. The hallway emptied until it was just the two of them, standing off like enemies in a silent war.
Finally, jecen stepped back.But before leaving, he slipped a folded note into her hand.
Amara hesitated, then opened it.Her stomach dropped.
It wasn’t a love note.It was a warning.
“Stay away from me... if you want to survive.”
Her blood ran cold. And for the first time in her life, Arian wondered if she had finally met someone more dangerous than herself.

chapter2:bake black stor
October 1, 2004
The night of October 1, 2004, would never leave jecen memory. He had been sitting alone on his bed, clutching his little dinosaur toy — the only thing that ever made him feel safe. Upstairs, his mother Maria’s laughter drifted faintly from the living room. She had been talking with her closest friend, her voice filled with warmth and joy.
At that time, jecen was a boy drowning in loneliness. He didn’t know how to talk to anyone, not even the kids at school. Anxiety weighed on him like chains, and he had no friends to share his world with. His father was working late again, as always, giving little attention to the son who desperately needed him.
Then came the sound.A noise downstairs. Sharp. Wrong.
jecen tiny fingers tightened around the dinosaur toy as he crept down the stairs. Each step felt heavier than the last. When he reached the living room, his breath stopped.
His mother lay on the floor. Her throat was cut, crimson spreading across the carpet, staining everything it touched. The little toy in his hand slipped into the blood before he realized. He couldn’t move. He couldn’t scream. He just sat on the floor beside her, silent tears rolling down his face.
Maria’s friend was gone. The house was too quiet.jecen knew — even at that age — who had done it. Her friend, the one who had always smiled too sharply, the one who had always envied Maria’s light. But now she was nowhere to be found. No one ever saw her again.
When jecen father came home that night, he found three things that shattered him:
the body of his wife,
the blood on his son’s toy,
and jecen himself, broken and silent.
That night ended jecen real childhood.
Ten Years Later
It was 2014. jecen was no longer that lonely, trembling boy.He had built himself into someone unrecognizable — happy on the outside, wild, untouchable. Tattoos inked across his skin. Loud laughter at every party. Dancing in every club. To the world, he was the life of the night. Girls fell for him easily, but he broke hearts without mercy.
Because behind the smile, behind the music and flashing lights, was the truth: jecen was still running.Running from October 1.Running from the blood on his toy.Running from the ghost of Maria and the shadow of her jealous friend who vanished into the dark.
No matter how loud the music, the silence of that night always followed him
OCTEBER 21 ,2004
Arian would never forget the night her world ended.
She had been only ten years old. A night like any other — the smell of dinner fading in the kitchen, her father sitting stiffly at the dining table, and her mother promising she’d be home before bedtime.
But her mother never came home.
The knock at the door came instead. Sharp. Cold.
Her father frowned, pushing back his chair.“Who could that be so late?”
Maya stayed curled up on the couch, pretending to watch the movie flickering on the TV, but her stomach twisted. Something about the knock felt wrong.
When her father opened the door, the world shattered.
Her mother collapsed forward into his arms, blood soaking through the pale fabric of her dress. Her lifeless body hit the floor with a dull, final thud.
A gunshot had silenced her forever.
Maya’s father dropped to his knees, his voice breaking as he cradled his wife.“Alicia! No... please, wake up... don’t leave me—don’t leave us.”
Maya stumbled toward the door, her little heart hammering. She thought her mother would get up, smile, tell her everything was fine. But the blood... there was so much blood.
She stood frozen, her tiny hands trembling, her eyes wide with horror.
Her father turned, his face streaked with tears, and pulled her close, but nothing could shield her from the sight of her mother’s body lying motionless on the doorstep.
That was the night her childhood ended.
Ten years later...
People said ARian was cold. Heartless. A bad girl. They whispered it behind her back in school hallways, thinking she couldn’t hear.
They didn’t know the truth.
They didn’t know how loneliness had carved her into stone.How her father, drowning in grief and buried in endless work, had never been the same again.How she’d spent birthdays alone since the age of ten, blowing out invisible candles, wishing for a mother who would never come back.
They didn’t know why she hated boys, why she never smiled, why her eyes always looked a little haunted.
They didn’t know that the image of her mother’s blood on the doorstep still burned inside her head every single night.
And they didn’t know about the promise she carried in her heart.
Maya had sworn, in the silence of her room, that one day she would find whoever destroyed her family.And when she did... she would make them pay.
“The past doesn’t vanish; it dances behind the eyes.
chapter3:back black story
The fight had started at school. Words turned sharp, glances turned colder, and by the time night fell, the tension followed them to the party.
The music pounded through the walls, lights flashing red and blue across the crowd. Jason stood with a drink in his hand, his jaw tight. Arian was there too, her eyes blazing with the same fire that had burned all day. They had never been able to ignore each other, not since the first time their paths crossed.
The moment came fast. She threw a glass of water in his face, the cold sting snapping his temper loose. Gasps rippled through the crowd.
Jason on didn’t flinch. Slowly, he wiped the water from his eyes, his gaze burning into hers. “You think that hurts me?” he said, voice low and steady.
Before she could answer, his hand moved, fingers pressing against her throat — not enough to silence her spirit, but enough to leave a mark. The scar would show.
Arian struggled, her eyes flashing defiance even as the pressure stole her breath. “I will never be yours,” she spat when he released her. “You can’t enslave me. I’m not that girl.”
His hand cracked across her face, and blood spilled from her nose. The crowd froze, music dying into silence. Every pair of eyes was on them, shocked, afraid, unable to move.
Jason leaned closer, his voice cold enough to freeze the air. “From now on, you’ll be mine. No girl has ever defied me and walked away.”
Arian’s tears mixed with blood, but her voice didn’t shake. “You can break my body, Jason , but you’ll never break me.”
The room was thick with silence. Then the DJ, pale and trembling, cut the music completely. Everyone was watching. Everyone would remember. Arian stumbled out of the party, her scar fresh, her heart still fierce.
Later, standing in front of his mirror, blood dripping from a cut on his own lip, Jason stared at his reflection. His fists clenched, his eyes wild.
“You’ll be mine, Maya,” he whispered, his breath fogging the glass. “No girl has ever busted me before. I’ll show you.”
The mirror showed more than his face. In the shadows behind him, the seemed to flicker — watching, waiting, feeding on the chaos.
Every scar is a memory of a fight we never chose.”

chapter4: More Than the Blood
Monday carried no peace. The whispers from the party still clung to the halls, following Jason and Arian like shadows. Students turned to stare, their eyes sharp, their voices hushed. Both pretended not to hear, but the air between them burned hotter than fire.
In gym class, the heat only grew. They were placed on different basketball teams. The ball flew, sneakers squeaked, cheers rose and fell. Jason played hard, every muscle tight with anger, but in the end, Arian’s team won. She lifted her hands in victory, her smile cutting him deeper than any blade.
His pride twisted into rage. Losing was one thing. Losing to her was unbearable.
The Cut
Later, in the quiet of the classroom, the teacher’s chalk scratched against the board. No one spoke. Even the air seemed afraid to move.
Jason sat at the back, shoulders heavy, jaw set. He barely noticed Jason until it was too late. Jason, always the troublemaker, slipped the scissors from the teacher’s desk with a grin.
Before anyone could react, Jason leaned forward and snipped a lock of Arian’s hair. The strands floated onto her desk like dead petals.
Her breath caught. Her fingers trembled as they touched the uneven edge of her hair. The laughter in Jason’s eyes stung more than the cut.
And then something inside her snapped.In one swift, furious motion, Arian grabbed the scissors back and drove them into Jason’s arm. Not enough to kill — but enough to make him cry out and send the class into chaos.
Gasps filled the air. Desks scraped, students screamed. The teacher rushed forward, pulling the scissors away, his face pale with shock.
“Both of you — to the office. Now!”
The Office
The walk down the hall felt endless. Students pressed against lockers, whispering, pointing, watching the broken silence move past. Arian’s steps shook, but she didn’t lower her chin. Jason trailed behind, eyes cold, hands in his pockets.
In the office, the principal’s face was pale with anger. Jason muttered curses as he pressed a cloth to his arm. Maya sat stiffly, refusing to look at Jason. He leaned against the wall, unreadable.
Moments later, Maya’s father burst through the door. His eyes were fire when they landed on her. “Who did this to you?”
She didn’t speak — she just turned her head toward Jason.
Her father’s fury exploded. He grabbed Jason by the throat, shoving him hard against the wall, his fist cracking across Jason’s face. “Don’t you ever touch my daughter again!”
Jason didn’t fight back. He didn’t raise his hands. He just stared at the floor, jaw tight, taking the blow in silence.
“Dad, stop!” Arian cried, pulling her father away. She clung to his arm, tears spilling from her eyes. Slowly, he let go, still glaring at Jason . Then he pulled Maya close and led her out of the office.
The room was quiet again, except for the sound of Jason’s uneven breathing.
His father never came. Too busy. Too absent.
The Empty House
That night, Jason walked into a silent house. On the counter, a stack of bills waited for him — money in place of love. That was all his father ever gave.
He stood in front of the mirror, touching the bruise on his cheek, his reflection staring back at him with empty eyes.Even I don’t have a father to stand with me,he thought.
Across town, Maya tossed and turned in bed, her dreams filled with Jason’s shadow — his cold eyes, his hand at her throat, the sting of his slap. She woke in sweat, whispering into the dark:“I’ll never let him break me.”
But Jason didn’t sleep either. He lay awake, replaying the day, replaying her voice. A thought burned in him, unwanted but impossible to silence:I wish I could say sorry.
Yet pride strangled him. To apologize meant weakness. And Jason would rather bleed than be weak.
The house was silent.
“His blood isn’t proof of evil — it’s proof of pain no one stayed to heal.”

Chapter 5: Bloodlines of Revenge
The night was thick with silence. Arian sat by the window, staring at the city lights. His father stepped into the room, his face heavy with a truth he had carried for too long.
“Arian,” he said softly, “I need to tell you what really happened to your mother.”
Arian turned, his chest tight. He had waited years for this moment.
“Her name was Alishia,” his father continued, voice strained. “And she wasn’t just the victim people think she was. That night... she killed someone.”
Arian’s breath caught. “She... killed?”
“Yes,” his father said, eyes locked on his son’s. “Her best friend, Lisa. She was jealous of her — consumed by it. In a moment of rage, Alishia took her life.”
The words tore through the air like knives. Arian shook his head in disbelief. “No... my mother...?”
“But jealousy breeds more blood,” his father whispered. “Because Lisa’s husband found out. And when he did, he came for your mother. He ended it. A gunshot in the dark.”
Silence swallowed the room.
Arian’s voice broke as he asked, “Where is he now?”
His father’s jaw tightened. “He’s here. In Newark City. Living a life he doesn’t deserve.”
Arian’s fists clenched, nails digging into his palms. “Then I’ll find him.”
“No,” his father said sharply. “Revenge will only destroy you, Arian. I kept this from you because I wanted you safe. But I see the storm in your eyes. If you go after him... nothing will stop you.”
Arian turned back toward the window, city lights burning like sparks in the distance. The name of Lisa carved itself into his mind, heavy and unfinished.
Hook Ending:
That night, Arian whispered to the darkness:“I’ll find you. And I’ll make you pay.”
The rain had stopped in New York , but the streets still glistened as if the city itself had been crying. Arian’s father moved like a ghost through the night, his steps careful, his eyes sharp. He had spent years searching. Tonight, he had finally found something.
Through a narrow alley, he stopped at a quiet house with dim lights glowing through the windows. He whispered the name he had carried like a curse for so long.
“Mr. Scoot.”
The man who had stolen Alishia’s life. The man he had sworn to find.
Creeping closer, he peered through the glass. Inside, a middle‑aged man sat at the table, his face hardened by years of guilt and silence. But what froze Arian’s father wasn’t Scoot himself — it was the boy who walked into the room.
A young man. Dark hair, sharp eyes, shoulders tense as if the world already weighed on them.
His chest tightened. “He has a son,” he whispered.
A dark thought coiled in his mind.Maybe I’ll kill your son, too. Let you feel what you made me feel.
But he pulled back from the window, the rage nearly choking him. Revenge was dangerous — but the temptation was worse.
Later that night, Arian sat at the table when her father finally came home. He could tell something had shifted — her father’s e
yes were colder, heavier.
“What did you find?” Arian asked, her voice tight.
her father sat across from him, silent for a long moment before answering.“Yes... I found him. I found Mr. Scoot’s home. And he has a son.”
Arian leaned forward, anger flashing in her eyes. “Where? Where is it? Tell me!”
her father shook his head. “Not yet. You’re not ready. When the time comes, I’ll show you.”
“But I want to know now!”
“No, Arian.” Her father’s voice was sharp. “If I tell you, you’ll go straight to him. And if you do... it will destroy you.”
Arian turned away, her lists clenching until her knuckles turned white.
Hook Ending:
In the silence of her room, Arian whispered to herself:“I don’t care if it destroys me. One day, I’ll make him pay.”
“Revenge doesn’t die with the killer — it runs in the blood, passed from father to son, like a curse that can’t be broken.”
