John Winston had a rough childhood. Traumatic experiences took a toll on his mind subconsciously, turning him into a ticking time bomb. John's dad walked out, his mother used mirrors to comfort him as she did drugs and the demonic rituals to hex John's Dad didn't make anything better. Now, 30 years later, John has become a scientist for a company know as Paralabs, where they study unearthly phenomenons. John has a weird obsession with mirrors but doesn't remember why. One night in the lab with a mirror triggers something that starts the process of John's fall. Is he being haunted, or has he just lost his mind?
Elena, John's wife, is supportive of John and his research, but slowly begins to resent him due to neglect and his obsession. To make matters worse, Elena begins to fall for Luke, a young man who she met through work. Things get hairy, and eventually all is exposed, sending John down a path he can not return from.

The Taste of Iron
Humanity is struggling to survive in a world that's no longer theirs. Liv, a scavenger leading missions to the edges of the city for food, medicine, and iron, knows things are getting worse. Every trip feels more desperate than the last. Humanity has an expiration date-the forest, and the creatures that dwell there, just have to wait them out. When a mission turns out to be a trap and Liv wakes up on the wrong side of the tree line-alone, disoriented, and for some reason not dead-she learns the forest doesn't just kill people or take their souls. It changes them. She doesn't know what she's becoming. Only that it's something way stronger than what she was. And that killing things never felt this good. Murderbot meets The Cruel Prince-with a whole lot of psychological horror My entry for onc2025, based on prompt 125: I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain. - Frank HerbertConcluída

And it wants to take her place. ONC 2025 | Exclusively on Wattpad Prompt 55: What if the person you see in the mirror isn't really you, but something that's been watching you this whole time?
