"Some mysteries are better left unraveled." Exactly seven days after the start of 2014, a massacre had arisen. Albeit the massacre carried the typical definition of the word 'massacre,' this massacre paced excruciatingly slow, killing three people each week. The police had confirmed it-everyone who had gone missing in the small town of Calinton were dead and officially victims of the indelibly notorious and infamous massacre. They just didn't know where the bodies were. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ University student Lynn Sivan scored a job at a popular local clothing shop and noticed something quite peculiar-the mannequins looked exactly like the victims of the infamous and notorious massacre that resided in town. It only added up that the mannequins were freakishly cold and heavy, and with the help of cute co-worker Callum Abernathy, she was hell bent on finding out what exactly was going on. cover by @weeknder

[[word count: 80,000-90,000 words]] Content and/or Trigger Warning: This story contains scenes of verbal and physical abuse that may be triggering for some readers. NOTICE: Before the Morning is currently undergoing revisions! A sensitivity reader (someone who goes through your manuscript and assesses representations in your work) identified a number of issues surrounding the Filipino representation in BTM. I'm rewriting with the goal of creating a more authentic and respectful story. I'm sorry for the pain I caused by failing to include accurate Filipino culture and in having written from Nora's point of view.
