    ⚠️ TW: This story addresses strong themes - self-harm, dissociation, toxic and possessive relationship dynamics, sexual content, references to past abuse, and mental health issues. If you're sensitive to these topics, please read carefully. 🤍 Vivienne knows what it means to crave something that consumes you. By day, she's a psychology student. By night, she's something else-something she'd rather not define. She works as an assistant in a psychiatric office, surrounded by patient files and whispers of pain that feel all too familiar. Every morning is a battle against herself; every night is an escape from a reality she refuses to face. And then there's Dorian-the only one who can truly touch her. He knows what she needs, what makes her feel good. With him, there are no questions, only the deafening silence of pleasure and pain blending into something bigger, something darker. But as Vivienne struggles to maintain control, the world around her begins to crumble. Between lectures, patients, and buried memories, she's walking a razor's edge, inching closer to the point of no return. How far can she go before she loses herself completely?

    For three years, Faustina has been a fixture of the monastery-a silent, hollow girl who scrubs floors with mechanical grace and stares through the sanctuary glass as if waiting for the world to end. To the nuns, she is a puzzle of trauma, a child who survived the fire that turned her village to ash. To the monastery, she is merely a silent observer. But Faustina is not waiting for rescue; she is waiting for the danger that followed her. She survives by keeping her secrets in the shadows of the sanctuary, using stolen charcoal to sketch a reality the sisters cannot see: a monastery becoming a gilded trap, a clockwork prison where every inhabitant is being subtly "harmonized" by a mysterious benefactor named Saer Piast. When the wealthy merchant prince arrives to "rehabilitate" the monastery, he brings with him the sweet, cloying scent of a wine cellar-the same scent that haunted the barrel where Faustina once hid from the blaze. As the nuns begin to harden into porcelain dolls, tethered by invisible strings, the sanctuary wall begins to crack. Faustina's only hope lies in the rhythmic, "jingle-jangle" chords of the Traveling Bard who once saved her-a woman who taught her that a soul is only lost when it forgets its own melody. In a world of glass walls and string-pulling masters, Faustina must decide if she will remain a marble saint or embrace the white, silent fire of her own identity. The toy maker is closing in, the collection is growing, and the song of the road is the only weapon left to shatter the crystal cage.

    For years, Elias Norman has lived with the phantoms of his past. Once a student at the prestigious Eliszt Academy, he spent his youth alongside a small yet close group of friends, among them the enigmatic Alexander Moore-a young man whose influence would alter the course of his life forever. Now, years later, Elias finds himself compelled to revisit those memories through a series of letters addressed to the one person he may never see again. As Elias recounts lost friendships, first loves, and haunting tragedies, a troubling question begins to emerge: how much of the past was reality? As the past continues to haunt him, the version of events he has cherished for years begins to unravel. People remember the same moments differently. Names are forgotten. Details refuse to align. And at the center of every contradiction stands Alexander. A haunting tale of memory and isolation told through the perspective of a broken man, Letters to a Man Who Does Not Exist explores the fragile line between truth and remembrance-and what remains when the past no longer recognizes us.

    Whispers in the Veil transports readers to the mid-1800s, into a world of crumbling elegance and faded grandeur, where a lone protagonist is imprisoned within the decaying walls of an ancient mansion. The estate, once grand and filled with life, now stands as a shadow of its former self, veiled in mist and cloaked in secrets. Every room is steeped in sorrow, and within its cracks, echoes of the past linger, whispering like mournful winds through empty corridors. It is a place haunted not only by ghosts but by the burden of memories long forsaken. The protagonist, fragile and enigmatic, finds themselves trapped in this labyrinthine manor, unable to recall how or why they arrived. Their past is shrouded in fog, leaving them to grapple with fragments of a forgotten life. As time seems to lose meaning, the house begins to take on a life of its own. The ancient beams creak under unseen forces, and the very walls pulse with a sinister presence. Each chapter unfolds as a haunting poetic meditation, reflecting the protagonist's descent into a world where reality and dreams blur. The mansion becomes a labyrinth of both physical and mental torment, with every flickering candle exposing deeper layers of the protagonist's mind and the house's cursed history. Every shadow conceals sorrow, and every reflection, a distorted memory. As they wander through dark halls, the protagonist must face supernatural forces and inner demons that threaten to consume them. The ghosts are not simply apparitions but manifestations of regret, guilt, and grief, forcing the protagonist to confront buried traumas. The line between the living and the dead blurs, creating a sense of disorientation. What tragic events unfolded in this haunted place? And, most hauntingly, what role does the protagonist play in this unfolding tale of love, loss, and madness? With each passing chapter, the house's secrets inch closer to the surface, revealing truths about both the mansion and the protagonist themselves.
