Narcissism Stories

It's the end of Harry Potter's third year at Hogwarts, and Platform 9¾ is louder than ever-filled with returning students, secrets that refuse to stay buried, and friendships stretched thin by fear and loyalty. When Ivy Rose McAlister returns to Hogwarts after being expelled from Beauxbatons, she isn't just another student boarding the Hogwarts Express. A pureblood of the Sacred Twenty-Eight, sorted into Hufflepuff despite carrying the instincts of a Slytherin, Ivy walks a line between worlds that don't know what to do with her. She has history with Draco Malfoy and Theodore Nott, scars no one talks about from Beauxbatons, and a connection to Cedric Diggory that people constantly misunderstand. But this year, something darker is moving quietly through the corridors of Hogwarts and it remembers her name. Old friendships will fracture. New alliances will form. And on Platform 9¾, before the train even leaves, the past begins to catch up.

LANGIT, LUPA (Laro ng Tadhana: Book 3) "He demands perfection. She is fighting just to survive." To the world, Andrea Joy "AJ" De Leon has it all: a stable life and a diamond ring on her finger. But inside the theater, under the judgmental gaze of the man who once knew her soul, she is hollow. Her fiancé, Kevin, offers a "domestic leash" disguised as love, but it's the stage-and the director she once called Pau-that threatens to pull her back into a reality she's spent years trying to forget. Paulo Alonzo is no longer the quiet, serious boy from the tech booth. He is a "Terror Director" who weaponizes silence and demands raw truth from actors who have forgotten how to feel. He claims to hate AJ's lack of discipline, but behind his wire-rimmed glasses is a memory of a girl in a yellow hoodie who once made him break every rule he ever wrote. As rehearsals turn into a battlefield of past hurts and unspoken longings, AJ and Paulo must decide: Is the "Laro" they are playing a rehearsal for a new beginning, or the final act of a tragedy eight years in the making? In the game of Langit at Lupa, someone always has to fall.

After her parents' bitter divorce, Diana is forced to spend every other weekend with the father she dreads seeing. Charming to everyone else but cruel behind closed doors, he is a manipulative narcissist who insists she'll always come first-while treating her as something to possess rather than a daughter to love. Every visit ends the same way: an hour-long car ride back from her mother's house, with nowhere to escape and nothing to do but listen. He fills the silence with guilt, lies, half-truths, and subtle attempts to turn her against the one parent who truly cares for her. At first Diana believes that if she says the right thing, maybe they'll finally get along. But as the years pass, she learns that some people don't want understanding-they want control. And sometimes, the safest thing you can do is keep quiet instead of giving them another piece of yourself to use against you.

SEVEN STATES By Krystian Simms After serving 15 years in prison for a crime committed as a teenager, Caleb Halloway walks back into a world that has completely moved on without him. Free but emotionally trapped by his past, Caleb embarks on a journey across seven states, determined to reclaim control over a life he believes was stolen from him. As he reinvents himself from place to place, Caleb leaves behind a trail of broken trust, unanswered questions, and growing suspicion. What begins as a personal quest for power and validation slowly evolves into a larger investigation as patterns emerge across state lines and people begin connecting the dots. Told through the perspectives of Caleb, the people he encounters, and the investigators trying to understand him, Seven States is a psychological crime thriller that explores trauma, identity, manipulation, accountability, and the lasting consequences of choices made in youth. The novel asks a difficult question: When someone spends their formative years behind bars, what happens when they finally return to society-and who do they become when they believe the world owes them something in return? Dark, suspenseful, and emotionally layered, Seven States follows one man's descent into obsession and the race to stop him before his past creates even more victims in the present. Genre: Psychological Thriller • Crime Drama • Suspense Author: Krystian Simms

A couple in a coma. Nine seconds of death. A city ruled by their divine versions. Giorgio and Loredana are returning from the Milan Furniture Fair when a van hits their old Panda with a Trieste license plate. For a few seconds, their hearts stop at the same time. When they open their eyes again, they are no longer in the car. They have entered Me like ghosts, the suspended capital of Pride: a kingdom built by the human psyche, dominated by two Towers and a sovereign couple. Over, King of Pride, rules from the Crystal Tower. It is splendor, culture, perfection, and the need to be admired. Narcisa, Queen of Pride, reigns from the Anthracite Tower. It is pain, sacrifice, guilt, and the need to finally be recognized. No one in Me can see Giorgio and Loredana. They, however, can see and hear everything. While their bodies lie in the same hospital and their daughter Giovanna calls them from the world of the living, the couple discovers an impossible truth: Over and Narcisa are not merely deities. They are their deepest forms. Giorgio has transformed culture, music, and poetry into a stage on which he can prove his superiority. Loredana has transformed pain and sacrifice into a tribunal before which she can feel innocent. To return to their daughter, they will have to navigate incompatible memories, family wounds, and a Pantheon born of fractures in their character. But Me recognizes only the Ego. And no one, in the realm of the Ego, has ever truly uttered the word We. ME - The Beast in Me is a Psychantasy novel that blends psychological fantasy, myth, family memory, and symbolism. The Beast does not come from outside. The Beast knows your name.

I loved you more than I should of, I thought that I could change you, break your walls, reach your heart, I thought...Only Thought.

NOTE: THE STORY WILL UNDERGO A FEW CHANGES AT THE MOMENT. The Ghost of My Father is a slow-burn psychological story about Kaia, a girl beginning to suspect that something is deeply wrong in her home. From the outside, her family looks perfect: a quiet manor, a respected father, a younger sister, and a string of nannies who never seem to last. But Kaia's instincts won't quiet down. Something is unsettling in the way her father moves, how he watches, how he always knows what to say. It isn't normal. Or maybe it is-and she's the one who isn't. This isn't just a story about catching a killer (or maybe it is). It's about what happens when you grow up under someone you can't quite understand-until you do. And by then, you might already be too much like them. Note: This is a work in progress. Chapters may change as the story moves forward.

In 2001, a man with a dysfunctional family begins to explore his satisfaction with his 'perfect' life. Following his own interests, he embarks on a remarkable journey across the world - soon to learn that all his actions have consequences.

With brutal honesty and tender vulnerability, this book captures what it means to mourn someone who's still alive in your heart.

For anyone who's ever loved too deeply and broken too silently, this collection will feel like being seen.

This is a short memoir about experiencing abuse at the hands of my own sister while growing up during the 2000's. I was both psychologically and physically abused by my older sister for most of my childhood. I suffered so much torment that I still live with deep emotional scars, self esteem issues and social anxiety as a result. For too long, it has been taboo to share a story like this one. I would really like to change that. Sibling abuse has been a serious problem for decades that frequently gets excused as "sibling rivalry." With this story, I hope to help contribute to the conversation surrounding sibling abuse, and how as a society we dismiss it. I've never felt stronger than when I finally was able to say this out loud for the world to hear.

Poetry abuse love life

He was previously married and in the process of filing for divorce. I was tangled in a complicated situationship one that would later cost me more than I understood at the time. He listened closely, mirrored my dreams, and made me feel chosen. I mistook intensity for love and confidence for safety. What I didn't know then was that I wasn't being loved, I was being studied. Slowly, subtly, the man I married began to change. Or maybe he didn't change at all. Maybe the mask just slipped.

**TRIGGER WARNING** The beautiful thing about life is that you can easily become entranced by your own insecurities and views... Suffocated by the liar. Intoxicated by the narcissist. Drowning by her inner most demons.
