Alma Blackwood is a normal teenage girl. As normal as a person with the ability to read minds can be. But when she is kidnapped one evening and taken to an asylum for ‘the supernatural’, her world is tipped upside down.   It turns out Alma isn’t who she thought she was. Whilst her kidnappers train her to summon and enhance the powers she didn’t think she had, a man makes his presence known in Alma’s head. She can hear everything he says, see everything he shows her. The thought that somebody can see inside her mind terrifies her. She isn’t used to his; she is the one who penetrates people’s memories, not the other way around.   But this presence may be her only means of escape. As her powers begin to develop and things get dangerously out of control, Alma’s realises she’s in way over her head. Not even she can control her own magic. And there’s still the question: who is the mysterious man in her head and what does he want? In a world where nothing is as it seems, can Alma even trust herself?

8 parts Ongoing Mature
On her first day of her second year, Maya starts hearing the rumors. They're impossible to ignore, whispers in the halls, sideways glances, and soft giggles when Leo walks by. His name always seems to come up in the same breath as tragedy. It's like everyone knows the details but no one will talk about them, like there's a dark cloud hanging over him. Some say it was an accident, others think it's something worse, but either way, Leo's the one you don't want to get too close to. Maya, however, isn't the type to shy away from rumors. Especially not when they start eating at her curiosity. There's something about Leo that pulls her in, like a puzzle she can't solve. She's been struggling with a hole in her life, the loss of someone she cared about, someone who's been gone for far too long. Desperate for answers and willing to do anything, Maya ends up making a deal. It's one of those things you hear about in hushed tones, something that sounds almost too unreal to be true, but she doesn't care. All she wants is for them to come back, and the cost? Well, she figures she'll deal with that later. But just as she's about to seal the deal, Leo shows up, like some kind of reluctant hero. He tries to save her, to break the bargain before it's too late, but his intervention backfires. The deal takes its toll on her in a way she never expected, half of her soul gets torn away, scattered across town. To make things worse, part of the demon that tricked her takes root inside her, filling the void and granting her powers. But it's not all gifts. With those powers comes the threat of losing who she is, of being consumed by the very thing she tried to control. Maya is left with a terrifying choice: use the powers to reclaim her soul or risk losing herself completely.

I never thought my life would be like this; trapped in a dark room and scared for my life. A blindfold was wrapped around my head, covering my eyes, making me completely blind and on high alert. My breathing was ragged and I could smell the mold that was most likely covering most of the room. My hands were tied behind my back, my feet tied together and I was sitting on the floor, propped up against a wall. I heard a slight shuffling across the room that was coming closer to me. I tried my hardest to keep my breathing under control to seem confident and fearless, but in reality, I was shitting my pants and squealing like a scared little girl on the inside. To say I was terrified was a drastic understatement. I was petrified, shaking with fear, but they were not going to know that. "Who are you?!" I demanded. If I was going to die, it would be with the name of my kidnapper. A voice boomed closely to me, "Well, if I told you that, this wouldn't be any fun." **************** Skylar James, a 24 year old girl, is kidnapped by a very well known gang who has a vendetta against her family. In an attempt to find light in her situation, she makes friends with one of the members. Logan Grant was forced into the gang at the young age of 16. He was abused until he became emotionless and ruthless, so that one day, he could rule the gang. Everything was going smoothly until Skylar is brought in. With a blindfold wrapped around her head, he instantly feels bad for her, though he cannot show it. Afraid of getting caught, he shows no emotion while others are around. Though, behind closed doors is a whole other story.

This is the story of a girl born with an extraordinary gift-one that set her apart from the very moment she took her first breath. Ever since birth, she has been haunted by visions that intrude upon her waking hours and even invade her sleep. These spectral images and whispers, seen and heard only by her, have always been a double-edged sword: a mysterious window into another world and a constant source of torment. From childhood, her unusual abilities isolated her from her peers. While other children played freely, she was burdened with a secret world that no one could understand. Desperate to share her experiences, she once confided in her mother, only to be met with disbelief and dismissal. "It's all in your head," her mother insisted, leaving her to face the inexplicable alone. As she entered high school, her strange behavior and the eerie phenomena that accompanied her made her an easy target. Teasing and ridicule became a daily ritual at the hands of classmates who could not comprehend her reality. Yet, despite the relentless bullying, she never retaliated-not out of weakness or fear, but because she was determined never to inflict pain on anyone, even those who scorned her. Everything began to change when one fateful day, a young man stepped forward. For the first time, someone saw beyond her oddities and recognized the courage and compassion within. He defended her against the cruelty of others, sparking a glimmer of hope that maybe, just maybe, she wasn't meant to be alone. In this haunting and heartfelt journey, she must learn to embrace her gift, unravel the mysteries of the visions that both curse and bless her, and navigate the delicate balance between isolation and acceptance in a world that fears what it does not understand.
