The Psychic Within

The Psychic Within
Haunted by a mysterious scar and visions, Rachel's life unravels. When her trusted psychic friend, Luc, dismisses her experiences as mere 'episodes,' a chilling reality emerges: the haunting might be within her. Can she uncover the truth before her own mind becomes her greatest enemy?

The familiar prickling sensation began in Rachel's knuckles, a warning she'd come to dread. It climbed her arm, tracing the angry, unhealed scar that snaked across her forearm, a brutal reminder of Lillian and her monstrous 'Beast'. As it reached her elbow, the prickling flared into a searing burn, hot enough to make her gasp.

She clutched her arm to her chest, a sharp cry escaping her lips. Heads turned on the busy restaurant patio, a mixture of curiosity and concern in their gazes. Rachel ignored them, squeezing her eyes shut, desperately willing the invisible flames away. "This is all in your head," she reminded herself, a desperate mantra against the agony. "It's not real. It's not real."

But oh, how real it felt.
