THE DOOR BETWEEN

#vote# on Dreame. This chapter marks a shift—from haunted thoughts to haunting reality. I wanted to blur the line between waking and dreaming, between the physical and the psychological. Jasmine’s world is beginning to stretch, twist, and respond to her awareness. Every step she takes toward the truth pulls her deeper into something older, stranger, and far less forgiving than she expected. Lana’s return, Eli’s disappearance, the photo—none of these are coincidences. They’re pieces of a larger puzzle that Jasmine is only just beginning to see. This chapter was about that first real confrontation with the unexplainable, and what it feels like to be trapped between what’s real and what’s waiting. There’s more to come. More doors. More choices. And Jasmine will have to decide what she’s willing to lose in order to understand what’s truly happening. Thank you for walking into the dark with her.
