A pitch black blanket looms above. Spilling its hydro fury and deafening the lands with sonic cries. Nick. A new lifeline. I just need my daily intake or the madness might flow. I trudge quietly to his room. Knock knock knock. Faint voices are heard on the other side. Faint being the keyword. Barely audible. There’s a click and the door opens.

I silently walk to the room of Cora knowing that it will be the easiest kill. I open the door and see Cora sleeping peacefully with a faint smile. Probably dreaming about raising a child. How dare she think that I would have a child with that old fool! I can feel Offred screaming in pain, begging me to stop.

The fire begins to consume her body and the house along with it. Spreading slowly but surely. She recalls all the past memories of her time in this house. The people she met and the events that occurred. The biggest regret she has is that she never got to see her jewel ever again, and with that, the remaining life within her fades into
