Innerdemon Stories

He was supposed to be her cage. Instead, he became the only place she felt safe. When her father's debt becomes impossible to repay, he offers Luna as payment to the most feared mafia heir in Valleria-Ryujin Valenti. A man whose name alone makes people tremble. To Ryujin, Luna is supposed to be nothing more than a debt. But somehow, the ruthless mafia heir becomes the only person who can make Luna feel safe. Even if it means making her his fake fiancée. What begins as an arrangement slowly becomes something neither of them expected. Everything feels so good... Until she realize that every touch, every promise, every kiss might have been nothing more than another part of a carefully planned lie. Because in Ryujin Valenti's world, nothing comes without a price. And Luna is about to discover that the man she trusted with her heart may be hiding the darkest secret of all.

While he was still learning to walk carefully around the shore, life in a flash pushed him into a raging ocean with no experience of survival and a newborn child in his weak, quivering arms. Inside it, at every inch -- demons, hundreds of demons cloaked in human flesh were silently waiting for him, their hands burning with an ache to be stained in blood. And the worst, cruelest truth was; they had been waiting for him but never for him. The child, the small life in his arms. Her breath. Her blood. That was all they wanted. He knew he was nothing, absolutely nothing before them --- just a simple boy with simpler intentions and the simplest way of seeing the world. He had every intention of walking away, of leaving her behind and forgetting she had ever existed. It was simple. It was the plan. Until she opened her eyes and lifted her wide, teary eyes to look at him and in those eyes of the newborn, lived an innocence so heavenly pure that for the first time, every sacrifice, even dying to protect her seemed worth it. After all, in the end, he had become her 𝐟𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫, her baba. He fought every single one of them, not as a warrior but as a young father. As he forgot everything; his fear, his pain, his life. The only thing that he could remember was her crying little face, buried in the crook of his neck. But for how long could he keep her and himself safe from them? He knew he needed someone strong. Not just strong. But Stronger. Stronger than them, than those men. Perhaps, a man. Or many. Or maybe, just maybe, a woman, only.

•ＳＹＰＮＯＳＩＳ• 𝑽𝒂𝒍𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒂 𝑩𝒊𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒉𝒊 has always lived behind secrets. To her newly discovered family, she is the long-lost daughter-their fragile, innocent little sister they thought they had finally found. But that is only half the truth. Beneath the name Valentina Bianchi lies another identity whispered throughout the underworld. Velvet Viper. A highly skilled assassin who has spent years keeping her true nature hidden behind a carefully constructed mask. Even after discovering that she belongs to one of the most powerful American-Italian Mafia families, Valentina chooses to keep her greatest secret buried. She never tells them who she really is. She never tells them what she has done. And most importantly, she never tells them about Velvet Viper. Because some secrets are safer when they remain in the dark. Or at least, that's what she thought. Until Adrien. The mysterious stranger who appeared as an enemy, took her hostage, and somehow saw straight through the frightened girl she pretended to be. He knew her secret name. Velvet Viper. A name her family had never heard. A name she had never spoken to them. So how could he possibly know? Now Valentina is left with a question far more dangerous than any enemy she's ever faced: Who exactly is Adrien? How does he know her true identity? What does he know about her past? And why does it seem like he knows far more about her than he should? For the first time, the girl who has spent her entire life uncovering everyone else's secrets may have finally met someone who has been uncovering hers. Because perhaps Adrien isn't just another enemy. Perhaps he's the beginning of a secret Valentina was never supposed to discover. And the real question isn't what Adrien knows. It's just who the hell is this man? ________________________________________

For as long as she could remember, Jaybe Junes wanted to be a writer. Now, after more than ten years, she got a everything she wanted... but in the process she lost even more. The irony wasn't lost on her; she managed to write, what a few respected critics referred to as, a modern day Romeo and Juliet; yet she have lost all faith in relationships and marriage and especially love. Being so focussed on her work, she paid less and less attention to her best friend and soulmate until it was to late. Karl was perfect, he was smart and driven and kind and funny. He was handsome and passionate and he loved her so much. They both were horribly surprised to learn that sometimes love is not enough. If she bothered to get the help Karl sometimes begged her to; any good psychiatrist would've seen the disaster coming a mile away. No one with so many closeted demons as Jaybe could have a successful relationship. She ignored them for so long, demons created by her narcissistic mother, demons past down by her alcoholic father... in the end, the smallest thing could summon them. So there she was, on the cusp of her new, supposedly incredible life, alone in a new city and at the age of 39... more lost that she has ever been. And then she met him. He was young, way too young. He was handsome, much to handsome. Incredibly famous, rich and well known for being involved with to many women in his short but eventful life. And now for some unthinkable reason, so Jaybe thought, he was interested in her. Could he break down the bitter walls around her heart? Would she allow him to? Is that even possible anymore, for her to love again?

Who is right? Me or myself? Myself or me?

When you have periods of dark thoughts, write them out, make the words bleed what your soul feels. This poem was the result of a particular dark night.

A world where magic flows in rivers and flies through the air, and love is the only thing that can briefly distract from saving the ancient machines. The elements are losing their power. The prophecy is nearly forgotten. But when the water calls - she answers. Atlanta - bearer of the water element. Una - a runaway from Earth who became part of another world. Marpha- a princess and a knight, forged by wars. And others. They are bound for an expedition upon which the fate of Enover depends. Airless caves. A war of blood. Family secrets. And a choice that cannot be avoided - when Beluga herself offers them one wish each. This isn't just a story of magic and knights. It's a journey through ashes to the heart of the world. If it beats..

inner thoughts

I am dead. But death is not quiet. It is not peace. It is a hollow, rotting thing that peels me apart piece by piece. I see my sins carved into the walls, whispering in voices I almost recognize. They say I deserve this. They say I was always meant to end up here. Maybe they're right. Maybe I was doomed before I even took my first breath. Maybe I was never meant to leave.
