In the modern life of Raegan Ray everything was in place, the girl had rules for everything. In fact, her grandmother made her a handwritten book with all the rules she has to follow religiously. ⠀⠀⠀ 1)No going out after 8 p.m - because the wolves are out at night. 2)No drinking, smoking or taking anything that could make you lose consciousness. 3)No talking with strangers. 4)Always wear red and have silver at you. 5)Train with your dad. 6)Practice archery with Teagan. 7)Take the tea I'm making you before going to bed. ⠀ 8)Not allowed in the woods. 9)Always pray three times in the morning.⠀⠀ 10)Take baths and use basil every night. ⠀ Those were the first ten rules, some of the most important ones Raegan had to follow every day without any questions. She always thought her grandmother was mad and since her father barely stopped at their house, Raegan and Teagan had to take care of the older woman. It was never easy and Raegan was almost always frustrated with the woman - she was 19, she wanted to go out and party and be able to have friends but she barely had those. She felt like she was locked up her whole life and truth be told, she was. ⠀ Her grandmother wanted her safe, away from the wood's dangers such as a certain black-eyed wolf who was living in the forest now. A certain shapeshifter that was the thing the Ray family was hunting for centuries. Raegan was born a hunter - even if she liked it or not. And the oldest woman was in charge of making sure her granddaughter was safe, especially after the tragic accident where Raegan's mother died - torn apart by a wolf. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Raegan Ray was shielded from everything, treated like a princess in a tower but all she wanted was to be able to run through the woods and make new friends, make new memories. And figure it out why the hell her grandmother always puts some kind of drugs in her tea before bed. ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ What was actually going on in her life? Who was she really and what's

🌊 How the Ocean Drowned the One with Glory By Maren Thorne 𝖂𝖍𝖊𝖗𝖊 𝕬𝖓𝖈𝖍𝖔𝖗𝖘 𝕱𝖆𝖎𝖑: Where Anchors Fail Have you ever seen the sea take down something too mighty to break? Not because it was weak. But because it was glowing. This is not a love letter. It's a warning. To the ones who rise too high, who carry too much light, who think they can sail untouched. The ocean has a type-he's drawn to glory. And when your shine matches his hunger, he pulls you under. Not because you were broken, But because you burned too brightly. This is a poetry story about drowning without water. About carrying salt in your blood until you feel nothing. About becoming something violent just to survive. And about the pain of being watched while you suffer-only to be blamed for burning. He doesn't care how powerful you are. He waits. He swallows. And when he's done, you'll be just a story told in echoes and fossil bones. Because the ocean doesn't destroy the weak-he devours the ones who dared to be strong.

Some of the stories shared here are born from my own imagination, while others are timeless tales, reimagined through my voice. One such example is the chilling legend "Humans Can Lick Too", a story whispered in many versions-this one shaped by my own dark twist. Much like the eerie lore of Bloody Mary, these tales follow familiar shadows but wander down new, unsettling paths. Others delve into the world of the uncanny, drawing from the mythos of creatures like Wendigos, Sirens, and other beings best left in the dark. All rights are reserved.
