I have to get out of here. If I don't, I'll start to go crazy. I'll do whatever it takes. I've been lied to before, and it hurt. It hurt so bad. But now, maybe it's my turn to lie. You do what you have to right?

I'm lonely. I haven't been forever, but lately I am. My dad always showed me these lame magic tricks. Now I know they weren't real, but maybe I'm wrong. Maybe magic controls everything we do. Maybe it controls everyone we meet. Why we meet them, how we meet them, how they act towards you. Now is no time to get upset about it. My dad always said magic is a way we show our emotions in an unexplainable way. He has never been so right.
Expression: a diamond in the rough
Meaning: someone who has great qualities, despite a hidden/rough exterior; someone obtaining great potential and heart

The Dark Lord's Kiss for the Pure Virgin Girl! 🦇🖤
Lara, in this magical and enchanting world, nothing is a lie! So believe in fairy tales. This was the phrase my mother whispered to me every night with her gentle voice. When she read the story of "Jack and the Beanstalk," I would always curiously ask: • But why don't I have a magic bean that can take me wherever I want? She would smile kindly and keep hope alive in my heart. We all believed in magic and wizards as children, fairy tales, and Little Red Riding Hood! I wished I would never know the bitter taste of reality. But years after her death, I faced the harsh reality of the world; a reality I had always tried to escape. After my mother's death, her voice remained with me, inviting me to the bright world of hope; unlike many who grew up and no longer believed in any childish dreams. But I remained faithful to stories and the land of fairies, believing that destiny awaits us all! We are born into different tales and live with love. However, the bitterness of the world ensnared me in its grip. Just when I was only nine years old, I became acquainted with the bitter reality of life; when the snowy night arrived! I had never seen snow so terrifying and ugly. Because my mother was in bed, coughing up blood and taking her last breaths. A tiny bit of white snow had fallen from my woolen boots onto the ground, and when her hand hung limp, droplets of blood dripped from her fingers onto the snow, turning it red.

Queen of Bargains: Monsters Under the Mountain
Selene was never meant to be part of this world. She had once been a medical student, living an ordinary life filled with textbooks, late-night study sessions, and the quiet certainty that magic was nothing more than fiction. Then, she woke up in a world ruled by monsters. For twenty-five years, she has survived on the outskirts of a human village, healing where she can, hiding where she must. She knows little of the High Fae, their courts, or their treacherous games. She knows only whispers-of a wicked queen named Amarantha, of a war that shattered kingdoms, of a High Lord with violet eyes and a smirk sharper than a blade. But when a raid on her village drags her Under the Mountain, Selene is thrust into a world of cruelty and deceit. Powerless and human, she should have been nothing more than another disposable servant. Instead, she catches the eye of Rhysand, Amarantha's right hand. To the world, he is a monster. A traitor. A willing pet in the queen's twisted court. But Selene has seen him at his most powerful. And now, she has seen him at his most broken. Forced into servitude, trapped in a palace where humans do not last long, Selene must navigate the deadly politics of a court built on suffering. But as she uncovers the truth hidden beneath Rhysand's carefully crafted mask, she begins to question everything she thought she knew-about this world, about him, and about the war that looms on the horizon. Because it was not fate brought her here. She was the obstacle to his fate. And fate is watching. all rights reserved to the original authorZakończone

Make It Through The Lies(On-Going)
Letting go of someone who mean so much to you, who changed the person you are now, is immensely difficult. There's no way of sugarcoating it- the mere thought of letting go of the person you've always wanted to be with will make your heart writhe until the darkest of red becomes the palest of white. Though letting go is the only way for you to get your life back on track. An exemplary life is what you ought to have. But what if the one you let go of is the one you should have been with until now? What if that person is the best thing that ever happened to you but you failed to recognize it because you're too focused on getting a better life? Should you go back to him or her, ask for forgiveness and try your very best to become a part of his or her life once again? Or heighten your pride and watch him or her from afar with another person? ••• Make It Through The Lies Written by: Mizz_Azilanna Date started: March 2020 Date finished-------- Note: credits to the rightful owner of the photo.Zakończone
Deception: Consequences (Book Three)
Consequences can cause hurt, pain and sometimes love. You can find you will be pushed to something you never quite expected. Consequences make you look at your life and why you arrived where you now are. There are all kinds of consequences from realizations of family secrets and actions. Of starting something that you might not be able to live with at the end of it all. Consequences are what you have to take responsibility for and be able to endure and continue. Family is everything. These are lessons that everyone learn as they go through life, as so Cameron and Jonathan. "Although you may not always be able to avoid difficult situations, you can modify the extent to which you can suffer by how you choose to respond to the situation." ― Dalai Lama XIV, The Art of Happiness "Self-satisfaction alone cannot determine if a desire or action is positive or negative. The demarcation between a positive and a negative desire or action is not whether it gives you an immediate feeling of satisfaction, but whether it ultimately results in positive or negative consequences." ― Dalai Lama XIV, The Art of HappinessZakończone
Hell on Earth
❝My entire story is a grim web of lies in which I am drowning, as though in a dark abyss of fear and despair. And no one can pull me out of it, because, fortunately, no one will ever know the truth. Why? Because even I don't know it. ❝Pretending to be a normal person doesn't mean actually being normal. I thought that if I acted like I wasn't myself, everything would work out. I was wrong. Because someone already knows who I really am. ❝If I stop-I'll die.
