Shiloh
There’s a kind of nagging echo that bounces off the dark town streets of
Hades Hollow. The whispers between the Tiki huts, sandbars, and small
coffee shops. No one liked to speak about it out loud. I think, for the most
part, everyone here likes to ignore all the red flags within the stories. I wasn’t
sure what to believe most of the time. The stories had changed so much I
don’t think anyone really knows the truth.
The tales grew around every good thing in this town like poison ivy.
Death was a lonely place, but it was silent there. Peaceful. Haunting.
“Shi! Hurry up, baby! Jump!” Ruin calls out loudly from below.
Fucking Ruin and his dumb ideas. I took a careful step closer to the edge
until the loose rocks moved beneath my toes. The dark water curdles around
the rocks down below, and I hold my breath as I internally count down my
options.
I couldn’t not jump. I had done it before, but it was so high every jump
felt like a first. I step off the ledge and fall, hitting the placid water with a
loud splat. One I knew would leave a mark long after. I try to inhale air, but
fill my lungs with water instead, and I curl my hands above my head to swim
to the surface. See, Hades Hollow has a secret, and like the bones of our
ancestors that live beneath the waters here, it should stay dead.
Hands grab me around my waist, forcing me to the surface as I swipe
water from my face.
“Hey…you good?” Ruin asks, tucking his blond hair behind his ear while
sitting upright on his board.
“Always.” I’m certain I probably almost died. But it’s The Landing, and
The Landing isn’t to be taken lightly. Everyone here knows who I am. They
know I bleed saltwater, so I guess none of them expected me to almost
fucking die after jumping.
His face splits into a wide smile as he reaches behind himself and pushes
my board over to me. I wrap the strap around my ankle, pushing myself up on
top while keeping my eyes on Ruin.
“How many times is that now?” he asks, his blue eyes twinkling.
Ruin is cute, but he’s bland. It works for us both since neither of us is
ever looking for anything remotely serious.
“Twice.” I lean down on my board, paddling closer to Dani.
Dani is my best friend’s “girlfriend,” and since Cooper—the best friend—
isn’t here right now, I know I have to take her under my wing.
