The Darkness In Me: Book 1
Mark finds out something that he always thought was a fantasy. His whole world just turned upside down right in front of his eyes. Fiction becomes reality. **Please Note** Not only was this my first published story, but I wrote this in 2015-2016 which was when I was in middle school. So I cannot tell you to expect a high-quality story. I have recently gone through and corrected grammatical errors and errors Wattpad made such as indentations. I am currently working on a new and improved Darkiplier story, but I hope you enjoy this story anyway!Complete
