"After you achieved your revenge, after that brief moment of ecstasy at finally doing it, killing the person who caused you so much harm, you felt empty inside. It's as if all the actions you took, all the sacrifices you made, all the people you cut off, in the end they were all meaningless. Some forms of revenge help you grow into someone new, be it better or worse. But revenge like ours, they just make us feel like everything would be better without us." "And?" "And I don't want anyone to give into that hopelessness, that emotion is exclusively for me." A lone journey through life, scarred by the actions taken in the past, guided by the promise to ensure it happens to no other in the world. Nemo was not a hero, nor did he try to masquerade as one, but when one's aim is to hurt the ones that exploit others and aid those who need it, some may mistake him as one, and who is he to argue. On a regular day, around dusk, the assassin is tasked to break into a castle. It was supposed to be a simple payday for Nemo, but a strange encounter with another, slighted by the world, hell-bent on revenge, the circumstance too familiar for him to ignore. How do two scorned by the fates help each other to become complete as they fight against the malice everpresent in the world? (Book 1 is Updated Every 2 Weeks)

If you have any triggers, you've been warned. And if you're not sure... DM me and I'll be more than happy to talk with you and see if this is the right book for you. Happy Reading!

Trigger Warnings for Entire Piece: As a vampire fic there is mutilation, self harm, blood, and physiological torture of all kind. Mentions of SA are extremely limited and do not occur with the Main character. The prologue deals heavily with thoughts of suicide and can be skipped for any sensitive readers who struggle with suicidal ideation. Know you are loved and I want you here, this is just our girl's journey like so many of us have dealt with.

Rewrite Note: [At present I am rewriting the book with a planned release of the redone chapters starting in July! Originally thought I'd just clean up the chapters but decided instead to change up the story lines and make things better connect to book 2] So major plot changes will occur to what was read in draft 1 originally posted last year! A new opportunity to live his "best" life. At least, that's how Vincent was sold on the idea. Thing is, the condo's sort of haunted... by the ghost of a brutal killer known as the Hammer Man. For most, this would be a deal breaker. Well, not for Vincent. He's four years into his "career" and lives for hunts like this. It's a simple enough job: Go in, find the ghost, make it pay for the crimes it committed decades ago and deliver damnation in the way he knows best, punishment based around the target's sins. Will this job just be an easy, open, close case or will this hunt start him down the path of unraveling crimes of decades past, all while meddling in the affairs of the creatures around his new home?

[BxB] Robin Coy's life has always been relatively easy: he's popular, handsome, and expected to attend one of the top universities in the country. However, there's one part of him that he's not yet ready to reveal to the world. It's a personal aspect of his identity that he's chosen to keep close to his chest. But everything takes a drastic turn when he's forced to leave behind everything he knows and start a new chapter in a new city and school. Little does Robin know, there's someone who threatens to reveal his hidden secret. Yohan Schwarz is the tall, curly-haired mysterious punk kid that Robin finds himself spending a lot of time with. As their worlds collide, secrets and emotions unravel, leaving them both with a choice: to confront the truth or face the consequences. *I feel like my writing has improved a bit since I first started writing, so I do plan on editing earlier chapters once the work is fully complete.
