Stay or Let Go

Freya Yost once believed in love, loyalty, and destiny—until Kingsley, the man she admired and devoted herself to, shattered her illusions. Cast aside on a desolate road, humiliated and heartbroken, she refuses to beg. With quiet determination, she walks away, vowing to reclaim her independence and rebuild her life on her own terms. Returning to her longtime friend Novia’s home, Freya decides to sell the expensive necklace Kingsley had given her, using the money to pursue her dreams. But her struggles are far from over. She receives devastating news: her mother, who has been in a coma for years, suffers another medical emergency, pushing Freya further into despair. Even in her darkest moment, Kingsley proves himself unreliable, dismissing her pain and making her realize that she can no longer count on him. At the hospital, Freya holds onto a fragile hope as doctors report slight movement in her mother’s fingers—a potential sign of awakening. But just as life gives her a sliver of light, it threatens to take it away again. Meanwhile, her failed attempt to officially end things with Kingsley leaves their relationship in limbo, adding more uncertainty to her already chaotic life. As she juggles grief and resilience, an unexpected encounter on a hospital terrace introduces her to a mysterious man who lifts her spirits, if only for a moment. At the same time, new career opportunities arise. A popular reality show invites her to participate, and a buyer emerges for her necklace—someone who may be more than just an ordinary customer. Determined to take control of her fate, Freya is on the brink of transformation. But with Kingsley’s shadow still looming over her and her mother’s condition uncertain, will she finally break free and carve out the life she truly desires?

We are the fear

Hello everyone. I'm the creator of the horror short story collection *We Are the Fear*. For me, creating this work is like embarking on an exciting journey to explore the dark corners deep within the human soul. It's also a fantastical adventure of translating the thrilling inspirations surging in my heart into words. For a long time, the horror genre has had an irresistible appeal to me. The unknown and dangers lurking beneath the surface of daily life always stir up my boundless imagination. Many moments in life, whether it's the eerie shadow cast by an ancient building or the sudden strange sounds in the dead of night, can become the sparks for my creation, lighting the fuse of one terrifying story after another. I'm enthusiastic about excavating the most hidden and fragile parts of human nature. In my opinion, the complexity of human nature is an inexhaustible wellspring for horror stories. Everyone has seeds of fear within. It could be the fear of loneliness, the worry about loss, or the awe of unknown forces. I attempt to amplify these emotions in my works, placing them in extreme situations to showcase the diverse reactions of human nature in the face of fear. Each story in *We Are the Fear* is a painstakingly crafted crystallization of horror. I'm dedicated to creating an atmosphere that can make readers' hearts pound and send chills down their spines. Starting with environmental descriptions, I use delicate strokes to sketch out gloomy scenes, enabling readers to feel as if they're on the scene and experience the chilling sensation that rushes towards them. Then, I delve into the characters' inner worlds, depicting their psychological changes when confronted with horror, so that readers can truly empathize with the characters' fear and despair. When it comes to the narrative rhythm, I strive to achieve a proper balance. I artfully set suspense, keeping readers in a state of high tension and curiosity throughout the reading process, eager to uncover the mystery. And at appropriate times, I slow down the pace, giving readers a brief moment of respite while inadvertently planting new foreshadows to prepare for the next onslaught of fear. I hope this book can bring readers an ultimate horror experience. While reading, they can feel the excitement of an adrenaline rush, and after closing the book, they can sink into profound contemplation about human nature and the unknown. *We Are the Fear* is not merely a collection of stories; it's a testament to my love and pursuit of horror literature. I hope it can touch the unique perception of horror deep within each reader's heart.
