{I love the silent hour of night, for blissful dreams may then arise, revealing to my charmed sight what may not bless my waking eyes ~ Anne Brontë}
I was a modest and unadorned woman. While the world viewed my sister, ever so elaborate, with awe-stricken, widened eyes, I sunk into the shadows and remained unnoticed. If you were to search up the word "mundane" in the English dictionary, you would see the name "Sage Elliot" in bold lettering. Any human being with sense could see that I was nothing special. I was born in a wearisome fashion and had persisted in being unvaried since then. But the truth is, although I rant about my monotonous personality, I loved living my life this way. It was a tranquil paradise where I did not have to worry about all of the eyes in the room falling on me when I made a mistake. Peaceful. How curious that life took that peaceful paradise from me in a mere second.

❝Destiny brought dark and light together, fate brought them love❞ Abused and broken Katia has been through hell and made it back alive. A true warrior. The scars she wears prove her strength. She fights demons every single day. There is no safe place for her. Not in her home and not in her very own mind. A small town surrounded by forest is her home town, the town she grew up in. No one has made it into that forest and lived to tell the tale. Katia feels drawn to that forest and her dreams are affected with this mysterious forest, and the black furred wolf with green eyes that burn into her soul. That forest may look normal on the outside, but once you are on the inside it is far from normal. Beasts roam the forest. Not just any beats. Shape shifters. Werewolves. People who can transform into wolves whenever they please. Katia doesn't find a reason to live, but inside that forest is someone who does. Someone who wishes to chance the way she looks at herself. With his love she might become better than she was. And see the strength she holds. But that has to happen before it becomes to late.

Eyes of the Divine (Yandere!Eyeless Jack X GN!Reader)
[currently undergoing major editing / rewriting] You thought you'd seen it all: clowns, a tall faceless guy who had arms longer than his torso, and a man with a smile cut into his face. After spending so many years seeing what shouldn't be seen, you were completely and utterly unbothered. So you thought. When you were handed the opportunity to spite your childhood nightmare, you took it, accepting that you would have to interact with one of his minions. He was polite, funny, and appreciative, so what could go wrong? Surely you weren't going to fulfil both of his dreams at once. (this is a work of fiction. all the Pastas belong to their original creators, as do any images used. they are not real, nor am i saying that they are. the only thing i own is the plot and any OCs. please do not re-write my work. this is not a romanticisation.)Complete

Our Prince (Creepypasta × Male! Reader)
All the stories are true. All of the sightings, the myths, the legends, the encounters. Deep inside the darkest forest, is a mansion full of killers who feast on the blood of the innocent and not so innocent. There really is a man with long arms and hands, whose face is as blank as death. This band of misfits truly considers themselves the last family that have left. Until they met you. Slenderman saw great potential in you when, even on your last beats of strength, managed to take down his Proxies and Jeff the Killer. Slowly, but surely, the Pastas nursed you back to health and sharpened your abilities to their maximum. This was it, you finally had a group of friends you could call family. All was good. Well, in your life, at least. The truth is, you're being hunted. By none other than the most powerful demon that could ever roam this earth, Zalgo, Lord of the Underealm. And, to your uncomfort, your father. Ever since you had fought him and fled his kingdom, he has done everything in his power to torment you into returning home. You vowed to Slenderman that you would never leave and betray the Creeps. You couldn't. After all they had done for you? But how long can your promise last? Will Zalgo manage to break you? And who will be strong enough to stay by your side? Warning: major swearing *cough cough* Jeffrey Woods *cough cough* This is also a Male!Reader × Jane the Killer story. Even though, yes, I know she's lesbian but let a guy dream (even though I'm not a guy)!Complete
A Lord and Lace (Regency au! Prince Arthur x oc)
A wayward regency au one shot I wrote for fun, and because the concept wouldn't stop haunting my mind. ~ Trying to get back up after his ex-fiancé left him, Lord Arthur Pendragon relents to his friends and families idea of hosting a party in his family's estate. Although holding up hope for a new love that evening, he could not predict falling head over heel for a woman with haunted eyes, who secretly hides a crooked and wicked grin and a spark of intrigue unlike any he's glimpses before. After catching the sight of that side of her, and the way her families mistreatment severely dampens it, he finds himself sure of one thing. He's going to get her out their grasp, but doing so might be more tricky then first expected. Miss Harriet Frodesdotter is stuck in a hell of constantly being forced into a uncomfortable, lace covered, dress, into unbearably loud ballrooms, and dealing with condescending suitors that her controlling sister manages to steer towards her. The sudden approach by a Lord Pendragon does make her pause however, his sweet and concerned eyes appearing to be almost horrifyingly sincere as he offers to help her with her family issues. She doesn't trust him, he's not the first to claim to be her savour for purely selfish reasons, but something tells her that there's something more to him, and not in a bad way. ~ Content warning for ableism, family issues (including abuse, I don't perceive it as especially graphic, but it's there) and depictions of meltdowns.Complete

With cooking catastrophes and night time reading. Thinking how life could get any better with him. It couldn't. It doesn't. ------ Hazel Gomez Sweet. Witty. Funny. Lovely. A real charm. Alexander Williams. Self-centered. Sarcastic. Adventurous. Rich. Worlds collide and fall in love. For the time being. For the 24 months she has to live then go back to her normal peasant life. ---- "C'mon sweetheart, don't sit there and pout you know you love me" I did. But I didn't want him to know that. I smile up at him. "In your dreams Alexander, the only thing I love is food." He scoffs and smiles down looking into my eyes. Don't smile at me like that Alex. I cant take it. He leans down to meet my ear and I swear I can hear my heart thump a thousand miles an hour. "That's not what you said last night when I had you tied up" he husks "I believe you were begging me to pound into you, yes? To shove my length inside you and let you cum? I believe you loved that, hm?" Shit. ---- -slow burning romance- -happy ending-Complete![Held On Mute [Michael Myers FF]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/148411845-256-k905530.jpg)
Held On Mute [Michael Myers FF]
C O M P L E T E D ✔ (EDITING ABANDONED) [Michael Myers x Mute!(Fem) Reader (Dead by Daylight FF)] You never understood why you were brought into the Entity's realm. You're lack of speech wasn't helpful when it came to much. As your teammates wouldn't know what you would want to say or do, but you could make a sound close to a scream. So at least they know when you're hurt... You were a special case- mute yes- but you always had strange thoughts and reactions to things compared to others. For one, you were always attracted to others eyes, always wanting to know what they held. In the realm of the Entity you found yourself attracting the attention of a killer, a killer who was set on sacrifice and described as both merciless and ruthless. A killer that used to be your old friend. One with dark eyes you haven't forgotten after so many years. _____________ After the "My Child" book I wanted to write a Michael x Reader one... well here it is.

He's my father(creepy pasta)
-+-+-+-+- For years I've been made fun of because of my hair, it's softer than silk, it doesn't make knots, it's never been to long or to short(at least not for me), it flows in the wind and is easy to style, but it's white. And I finally found out why... -+-+-+-+- Rebecca was always different, that's why she got bullied. She was the town black sheep. Since she could remember, she always felt like someone was watching her.

Lifeline ⤞ Peter Pevensie [Chronicles of Narnia]
"Part of her mystery Is how she is calm in the storm And anxious in the quiet." Fallon Hunter has a name that speaks for itself. Or, at least, that's what Professor Kirke had always told her. Having been with the professor from a young age, the girl was never told what had happened to her parents, nor who they were, making her extremely curious, but highly sceptical. She only believes what she can see. But when the war comes and she gets unexpected guests, she finds out that not everything is quite as it seems. - "She can be quite... frustrating." "I heard that!" - "Have you tried going in there?" "It's always closed, and there's no lock on the door. Do you expect me to just walk through the wood?" - "Stop giving me puppy eyes and walk." - "Do you believe me now?" - "Are you crying?" "No, my eyes are just mimicking the damn river." - "We'll get out of this, I promise." "Never make promises you can't keep." - "Together?" "Together."
