Fool Me Again

Fools Rest in Pieces – A Tale of Murder, Betrayal, and Dark Transformation When dismembered body parts start appearing across Brooklyn in garbage bags, Detective Kenneth Wilson is thrust into a chilling investigation that leads him deep into the shadows of deception and brutality. The victim, Mary Jordan—a respected real estate broker—had unknowingly entangled herself in the deadly web of Vitro Matic, a manipulative cab driver with a sinister past. Vitro, a man with multiple wives and mistresses, had mastered the art of deception, but his twisted love triangle turned deadly when Aleksa, his jealous first wife, set a plan into motion. With Nadja, his second wife, caught between loyalty and terror, the night Mary vanished became a night of unspeakable horror. But what Vitro and Aleksa never expected was that Nadja would escape—and that she would return as someone far more dangerous. Now living under a new identity, Sarah emerges from the ashes of her past, hardened by trauma and consumed by an insatiable hunger for vengeance. As the police close in on the truth, Vitro and Aleksa vanish into the night—but they are not the only ones lurking in the darkness. In a world where love turns to obsession and trust shatters into bloodshed, one question remains: Who is truly the hunter, and who will be the next to rest in pieces? A gripping psychological thriller where every choice comes with a price, and every secret is paid for in blood.

I once believed I was the heroine of a modern fairytale, blessed with beauty, wealth, intelligence, and a powerful legacy. Men adored me, women envied me, and I was engaged to the most desirable man, Cole Fay. My life seemed perfect, a dream where I held the starring role. But on my eighteenth birthday, that illusion crumbled. The truth hit me hard: I wasn't the protagonist, nor even the villain or a side character. I was just cannon fodder, a disposable part of someone else's story. But when fate recognized the cruel joke of my life, I was granted a second chance. This time, I'll write my own story, living for myself. And this time . . . I will never love you again.

You know what’s unfair? For years, I dreamed about adventure—magic, monsters, heroes, all that good stuff. I imagined grand battles, epic quests, and worlds filled with mystery. And then the world actually decided to go full apocalypse. Did it give me a cool prophecy? A legendary weapon? A warning? An OP Skill? Nope. Just dumped me into chaos with nothing but my sharp wit and questionable survival instincts. Fine. I can play this game. Heck, I even got my own survival guide: Rule #1: Find a protagonist. Because let’s be honest, I am not main character material. Main characters are strong, serious, and burdened by fate. I, on the other hand, have spent my entire life dodging effort like it’s a contagious disease. Rule #2: If your protagonist has amnesia, you are screwed. Guess what? Mine does. The regressor, the guy who was supposed to have all the answers, keeps squinting at the apocalypse like it’s an old TV show he barely remembers. “This looks familiar…” Yes, genius, because we’re about to die in it! So now I have to think. Not normal thinking—fool’s logic. The kind of thinking that makes no sense but works anyway. And if that fails? I’ll talk my way out. Monsters? Negotiate. Villains? Trash-talk them until they cry. Death itself? Well, I’ll try to convince it that I’m not worth the effort. And if I die even then? At least I’ll go out proving that fools always find a way. ______ ___ _ [ Please note that this story is a work of fiction and a product of the author's imagination.

In the aftermath of Lal Bahadur Shastri’s untimely death, India stands at a crossroads. The nation, recovering from war and economic turmoil, is torn between emerging political factions, bureaucratic stagnation, and foreign influence. Amidst this uncertainty, a man awakens in an unfamiliar body—the adopted grandson of the late prime minister—with memories of another life intact. At first, he remains an outsider, watching as power struggles within the government and resistance from entrenched elites threaten to push India into deeper instability. But as corruption tightens its grip on the system and opportunities for progress slip away, he realizes that silence is no longer an option.
