Have you ever met someone who alters the course of your life? For good or for bad, they've come in, given and taken, and then- BOOM! Your life was never the same. There's always a change, an altering of reality. When you meet those people, the reality that you've known your whole life is suddenly gone and a new one has taken its place. When those moments happen, there's no going back. You can try to return to the way things were but nothing, and I mean nothing, can take you back to exactly how it was. That's what happened to us. I think that's why we're still trying so desperately to get back to some sort of normalcy. Four years later and we're still on the ground, crawling, in search of the happiness that was lost that June. Summers will never be the same. Midnight walks through my neighborhood will never be the same. Field parties with bonfires and loud music will never be the same. I still don't know why you left and what lead you to the decision you made. What I do know is that we're here. We're alive and we're pushing forward to the future. A future that you're not a part of. But in some ways, I'm glad you're not a part of it. I just wish it wasn't like this. *** TRIGGER WARNING*** SA, abuse, suicide, substance abuse, and mental illness. This is a complete story that is much like life; fast, full of surprises, and not always how we want it to be. This has been a project of mine for over three years. It was self-published on Amazon, but after some issues in publication, I decided to just upload it on here. I hope you fall in love with these characters like I have. The friends in this story are trying to make names for themselves, figure out who they are, who they can trust, how to love, and how to separate themselves from a restrictive community. As in any coming of age story, they will experience growing pains... but will they survive them before its too late? PLEASE READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS.

38 parts Ongoing Mature
They were both so determined to have me. So relentless in their chase. I tried to tell the both of them I couldn't do it. I didn't date. I didn't have sex. I didn't do anything other than what was expected of me. But neither would listen and It was impossible to choose. Both were so completely different. Bleu was calamity. He was whom I craved when I needed quiet and serenity; when I needed to laugh and smile and let go of stress. Bleu was a warm sunset on the horizon of calm waters. An artist whom sought a muse. A free spirit who didn't realize his own potential to make the world a better place. Bleu gave me something I'd never known before. He gave me peace. He gave me a purity. Lucien was the complete opposite; he was tortured and traumatized and so familiar to me. When I needed the voices and the anxieties to disappear, when I needed to feel absolutely nothing but ecstasy, I knew I needed Lucien. He fed a part of me that had been awakened years ago. He fed my anger, my rage, and my fear until I had none left. He also needed someone who understood all that he was, and all that he needed. I had little knowledge of the dating world but they knew that already, and it didn't matter to them. So, I had to do what I had to do in order to protect myself; to keep myself in check and not let my emotions and feelings get too involved. I was only so strong and when two incredible, irresistible, successful men popped up and teased me, taunted me, and begged for me, what the hell was I to do but experience them both... have them both? To have them both and live the lie. Keeping my friends and family whom I'd once shared everything with- on the outside of my personal life. Two chance meetings. One massive lie. And two irresistible men. This would be the biggest challenge Elysia Lockwood had ever faced before.
From Night On: Magdalene by Bashooku
15 parts Complete
In From Night On: Awakenings, we are introduced to a character with a longer history than anyone could have ever expected. Yael Magal has been roaming the earth since before the turn of the common era. Born in 64bce, she reveals in Awakenings to Hessa that she has lived for over two thousand years, but there is so much more to her story than simply living for so long. What she has lived through deserves an open ear and an open mind. This is an extension to the From Night On series, giving a back story to an ally who deserves her own novel. In Awakenings and Pathways, Yael proves herself an adversary to give even Saturn a cautionary pause before making her angry, but who is she? Where did she come from? What has she seen during her incredible lifetime on this earth? Who she is, as she divulged to Hessa, is Mary Magdalene and that the story being told today is so far from the reality that its about time she told her side. A recipient of the blessings from The Being of Water, the, then, young Meira was set along a path of indescribable challenges, heartbreaking losses, and philosophical lessons that only time could offer as she meets historical figures, spiritual leaders, and mythical beings. Keeping with the spirit of the From Night On series, this is another journey through the world's geography, cultures, societies, myths, legends, and religions. What Magdalene offers that sets it apart from the others in this series, though, is a journey through time itself.

From Night On: Pathways

15 parts Complete

This novel continues the story of Les and Hessa after the events in From Night On: Awakenings. (Spoilers) Les being lost in the spirit world, Hessa continues the journal of the events since the dawn of the apocalypse. With the loss of a couple friends, she is left to maneuver a hostile world as countries fall into chaos as she makes her way to where she and Les had decided to go: to find the Dalai Lama. Thankfully, she is not alone in her journey. With the help of her new friend, Yael, they manage impossible odds, but there is still so much mystery behind this new figure. Meanwhile, Les' own entries appear to be sporadically filling in the journal on their own, but not quickly enough for Hessa to figure out where he is going or how to find him in time. Left largely on his own, he has to navigate the dangerous terrain of the spirit world. What beings can he trust and what food can he find that doesn't try to eat him, first? Meet strange creatures buried in myth and folklore, ancient sages, vampiric demons, guardians, and gods as Les and Hessa's journeys are diverted away from each other, for now.
