Are demons after Blake or is he mad? 

Into the Light is a story of perception, zealotry, and social rebellion with a malignant version of Jiminy Cricket chirping opinions into the mind. It is an experimental novel. 

 May I introduce you to the Will, the collective unconscious and Jiminy Cricket of the internet age. The Will wishes to bring you Into the Light. 

Though this story is about all of humanity, and the roots of our dysfunction, the Will found it more effective to compose a single novel to convey its message. This far easier than speaking to each person individually. Plus, they might think they were going mad instead of reading fiction, which is almost the same. So, a story within the story. The person, or should I say character, the Will chose to manipulate for this purpose is Blake Moxley.         

Poor Blake, such a nice chap, was thrust into a world of a confusion after he began to see people become ghoulish creatures and sought answers, as one does during such situations, and found them in an ex-priest, or so he claimed, nicknamed Stiggy. Blake was told of mystical beings who controlled civilization from hidden seats of power; however, he was one of the few who could see their true grotesque faces. Being a concerned citizen, he set off on a crusade across the United States to expose the dastardly evil. Sure, it led to ruination as he confronted the beings who manipulated Business, Politics and Media, but in the end, he finds salvation. Well, sort of.

"Someone I loved once gave me a box full of darkness. It took me years to understand that this too, was a gift." ― Mary Oliver. - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - Pardon the mess, I'm editing and switching certain chapters up right now. - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - Blake is normal. There's nothing wrong with him. The only thing is...he refuses to accept that it's past tense. Blake was normal. There's something wrong with him. Edward knows. He and his squad know, and they'll kill him. Blake will die to his curse, or by their hands. Either way is fine. In the world of the infected, if Blake were to accept it, he wouldn't survive. So, he chooses to risk it all, relying on the words of a witch, and leaves city limits in search of a cure. Monsters lurk, fires burn, and Edward will catch him in the end. Right? - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - This is mostly low fantasy; not romance. If you are reading for the romance, I suggest that you do not read this story. This is slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers. There is no smut. There may be other types of romance, but not for at least 25 chapters. There is a lot of violence. It is not the most graphic at times, but there is quite a bit of bloodshed. Sensitive content: One character is addicted to drugs. They are a side character, but they stick around for a few chapters. There are also minor mentions of drunk people and alcohol. This story is slowly developing elements of horror as I write it, so here's the one and only warning. There is no swearing. The Romance: ♥ This is LGBTQ+. The main romance is boy/boy. If you are not into it, then you do not have to read. Both are of age; Edward is 19, Blake is 18. They are adults and can make their own decisions. - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - If you are reading this anywhere other than Royal Road, or Wattpad, then you are reading stolen work. Please go here if you are reading anywhere else (Novels 2, Audio-book-ai.com, etc). That is not me. To Outrun the Darkness | Royal Road

"Again, do you think that's... wise? The others should be able to control themselves, but Fallon..." Gideon let the words hang in the air. Fallon wasn't the most stable in the best of times and sometimes, he questioned his decision to bring him into their home. "I'll watch out for him." Sebastian stood. "Damn me, why did I have to save her." "Because you were bored." ********************************** Most children are raised to have a sense of wonder. A feeling of awe at the unexplainable, delight at the thought of hidden worlds and fantastical creatures. Eve was not that child. She was happy in her logical life and didn't need the unicorns and wizards. To her, magic simply didn't exist. Until the night it tried to kill her. After she is saved by men of fiction, Eve soon discovers that binding an eight-hundred year old vampire to herself is the least of her worries. An unexpected reunion with her mother exposes secrets and she quickly learns that what she didn't believe in could be the death of her. ******** Warning******** THIS IS A REVERSE-HAREM NOVEL. THERE WILL BE SEXY TIME INVOLVED. It's also 107K words but only 16 chapters long. This means hella long chapters. Sorry about that, it's just the way the story wanted to be written. I hope you enjoy this as much as I enjoyed writing it. Please comment and I will do my best to reply :) If there are questions that might lead to spoilers, I'll try to PM or DM the answers.
The Sins Of Jack Price ni BennyDreadful
9 mga parte Kumpleto Mature
Jack had lived a life so full of sin even the Devil had questions Jack Price hasn't lived a very moral life. He cheats on his wife. He beats his kids and ignores those in need; although he believes himself to be a very worthy person. So, when he is hit by a bus and suddenly finds himself face-to-face with the Devil, naturally he is surprised. After a pleasant dinner, Lucifer takes Jack on a horrific journey through Jacks own life, tormenting him with horrific visions and psychological torture. Caution!!! This story contains graphic adult content (sex, language, drug and alcohol abuse and adult themes, including domestic violence) reader discretion is advised. ***Frightfest 2016 silver winner*** ***Second place for best Horror in Wicked Awards*** Cover by @Finnyh From the frightfest judges: FINN H. ARLETT: Ben's narrative in The Sins of Jack Price is original and focussed, and the immoral main character after whom the story is named is oddly quite likeable. I found it fun to watch him squirm. Ben's depiction of Lucifer is what cinched this win for me, as he is snide, devious, sinister, but unapologetically charming about it all. Altogether a quality read from an upcoming author. GAVIN HETHERINGTON: BennyBedlam's imagination knows no bounds, and from what is presented in The Sins of Jack Price, he writes in a way that entertains with a very brilliant idea behind it. It's unique in its concept and I can't wait to see this writer grow and develop his boundless craft.

Jack and Ann have taken me on a great adventure full of mystery and incredible technology, I hope you'll join us. I know you have a lot of reading choices, but if you have space left in your literary adventure cup, please join Jack and Ann as 2021 turns into 2022, happy reading! __ The demon whispers inside Jack's mind. "They are not worthy, they are cattle, these new humans you covet. The so-called creator has betrayed you, replaced you with these organic imitations. Slaughter them all." It's funny, not in a ha-ha funny way, but a sad, my madness doesn't make sense type of way, Jack thinks, because wasn't he human? Worse still, the voice comes with impulses that are hard to resist. Violence usually ensues. That's why he joined the military. A way to channel his urges into mind-numbing physical effort and war. It works for a time. But alcohol and fighting can only carry on for so long. Finally, he realizes, his only way out is suicide. But when he opens his eyes, he's in the In-Between. The creator has other plans for him, and she won't take no for an answer. Apparently, this isn't his first life and if he doesn't free her from her prison, it won't be his last. His curse is to be reborn without end, without rest, without memory. Only madness. Now Jack is on the run from forces he doesn't understand. It's a new world. The mundane replaced by ethereal artificial intelligence, spontaneous virtual realities, and homicidal bible salesmen. But the creator promises the demon's voice will disappear as soon as he finds the right girl, the right bond. After that, they just have to escape the clutches of those who hunt them, find the Isle of Song, and free the creator from her prison. Or maybe this time, in this life, Jack will figure out what true freedom is. Come along on this action-packed thriller as Jack fights to remember who he is, tries to end an eternal war, and atone for sins he doesn't remember...yet.

**WARNING** ~contains explicit content that may not be acceptable to all viewers. discretion advised~ "No no no no..." My words trailed "NO!!" I screamed, pulling harshly at all my restraints, attempting to get free, hearing the harsh clank of metal on metal with every movement. Colder than the table beneath me, chills ran through my body. This couldn't be happening, please. A sadistic laugh rang through the room and my head fell in defeat as my eyes squinted closed, not wanting to see his face. "Yes, actually." I felt his disgusting, filthy hands trail down my arms. I could feel him leaning forwards, moving himself closer to me. I couldn't bring myself to open my eyes, so I just lay there, waiting for what I knew was to come. "You're mine now, mut." His voice made my body tense more than it already had. The way he sounded so angry. So possessive. I dared myself to speak, "W-what ar-are you gonna d-do to me?" My voice shook and wavered so much in my fear that it was numb to my ears. Alpha Dave let out a low, calloused chuckle that sent chills throughout my body. He said, in a deadly low voice, "I'm going to remind you who you belong to." * DISCLAIMER- In this story world, each person gets five potential mates! * Blake Daniels' story has been one tragedy after another, Complications littering his route, tripping him on his journey through life.
