Romans & histoires Fear Street Ruby Lane

CHAPTER 136 CHAPTER 136 “What truth?” I asked, my voice trembling. Ruby didn’t answer right away. Instead, she took a slow, shaky breath and looked straight into my eyes. “Lena,” she said quietly, her tone almost pleading, “don’t react until you’ve heard everything I’m about to say. Promise me you won’t hate me for this.” Her words made my stomach tighten. “Ruby… what are you talking about?” I asked carefully. She swallowed hard, her eyes glossy with guilt and fear. For a long, uneasy moment, she just stood there, silent, like she was trying to find the courage to say something that could destroy us both. Then finally, in a low, breaking voice, she whispered,

I quickly said, “Spit it out already will you. What is wrong with you? The Ruby I know is never scared of anything and you look positively frightened!” “I got a call from Joy about an hour ago. She said she was done playing games and she was going to get serious. Joy said she was going to kill us all slowly and painfully. Em you know how she is. If she says she is going to do it, she will stop at nothing to accomplish it. And when I say all of us, I mean me, you. And everyone that either works for you or helps you. She said when it comes to you, she is mainly going to do it for revenge for trying to go after her after she killed Lucas.” Ruby said with fear in her voice. “Hey babe are you rea

Wiping the sad thoughts off her head, she continued humming her song as she made another turn and she stopped dead at the spot, she saw three men close to a truck, usually she won't have thought much of it and just continue on her way but after her discussion with Liam a few days ago, she was more concious, she observed them for a moment before the most trumatic and shocking events of her life took place right in front of her, she watched on if the men bring out a gun and point at the other man obviously asking questions which the other man couldn't answer, the third man brought out his gun too and they were both pointing at the now helpless man who looked like he was pleading with them, she

he threatened. "Then, I'll just marry Glenn." Shey clicked her tongue, deliberately linking her hands. Shey's temple rested against Glenn's bicep while the man's forefinger scratched the tip of his scarred eyebrow. Amid the household commotion, Ruby's breathing became heavy. She was half stunned while racking her brain hard. The green light was in front of her eyes, but the road she was on was full of mines. Ruby would enter the cage of blood-sucking creatures. She always hated those careless creatures, even for no reason. No, he could have invented a thousand excuses.

Blood gushed from their dead bodies as if it was a delayed reaction. “Don’t move yet.” He tells us as he keeps wrapping the wire around his hand. As he did I noticed that this web like thread was the cause of them being chopped up like that. Fear started to take over as I realized Rin just murdered a small army of centaurs without even breaking a sweat. When the hell did he have time to set this up? “What did… How…” Ruby mumbles with horror swelling within her. She couldn’t believe the amount of blood shed that took place in just a short amount of time. The way she was looking at Rin reminded me of how she called him a monster. This moment seemed more true now than before.

My blood iced over. Helen’s eyes darted to me, fear flashing across her face. I was about to say something—anything—when the door creaked open behind us. I turned, and there was Ruby, standing there. She stared at us, her expression hard, wary. Her gaze flickered to the screen...and the damning words still playing in the background. The room felt like it had frozen over. Nobody moved. Ruby’s voice was low and tight. "Tell me that wasn’t who I think it was."

She trailed off, squinting back at her own statement. "That doesn't look good...," Ruby crossed her arms, looking up at him, "Let's keep this between us, yeah? I don't want this plan to blow over a stupid theory." _______________ Ruby Hart was like any normal girl, the minute she found herself in danger or in the face of a fear that she can't stand, she unwillingly longed for her mother's warm embrace and her father's calming wise words. Which was how the brunette found her legs taking her to the Cemetery. She didn't really care where she was going. Ruby needed a getaway card from all of the drama that was now her life, and this was it.
