A girl was brutally murdered in the basement of a sorority house in spring 2011. Adele Theroux thinks she saw the killer - and the killer definitely saw her. What she doesn't know is why this all happened and who this guy is. As she tries to solve the mystery from a distance while in witness protection, the connections keep getting weirder and more personal. Might she be able to relate to the killer in a way that no one else can? And what does that mean about her own psyche?

Caught In Your Chaos ✓ by poojawrites

| WATTPAD INDIA AWARDS 2021 SHORTLIST | Like a moth to the flame, Amy finds herself drowning in Jake's chaos, and it doesn't even make sense how she's ready to do anything to see that sun-kissed smile on his face. She is his peace when he is everything that sets her heart and soul in a hurricane. And just like that, all her plans to have a peaceful college life go down the drain. The moment she looks into his black orbs, she finds herself losing in the hands of a guy her mom strictly forbade her to get involved with ever. Who knew four years of college life would become everything she should have never sought for, but also, something she always wanted to, with all her heart. Jake is stubborn, arrogant, and a lot more mysterious about himself than Amy can handle. He is also passionate, an artist with a paintbrush that can create masterpieces and depressed in ways no one bothers to know, except Amy. Amy is undeniably attracted to him. But Jake harbors enough regrets from the past to never seek the light Amy has to offer. Amy slowly manages to break through the walls of redemption Jake has created around himself. But she can never change the fact that our mistakes run deep than any other feeling. When shadows of past mistakes start drowning Jake into a dark pit of chaos, Amy might be his one chance to seek light, his silver lining, and love that can heal the ugliest of scars. But is he willing to heal? Or is it simply too late for him? Cover by @krissthetic

Killing Is Thrilling by duncanchurch97

'The night was alive with silence. I moved through it like a shadow, black leather gloves tight on my hands, boots soft against the grass. My gas mask hid my face, leaving only darkness where my eyes should be. The world narrowed to a single point: the house ahead. Tonight, it would belong to me. The farmhouse rose stark and white beneath the moonlight, silent except for the occasional grunt of a pig or the low hum of a cow. They were unaware. They were insignificant. I crouched behind the hedge, eyes scanning, senses alert. Every detail mattered: the flicker of light across the curtains, the faint rustle of movement inside, the way a shadow shifted across the floor. She was there. Oblivious. Popcorn in hand, murmuring to herself as the television flickered. Every motion was a note in tonight's symphony, and I was the conductor. I studied her, cataloging. Timing. Patterns. Fear. She didn't notice me yet, and that was perfect. Patience was everything. One sound, one misstep, and it could all unravel. I rang the doorbell once. Silence. Again. Still nothing. She flinched slightly, just enough to make my pulse quicken. Her small reaction was delicious. A sudden movement in the yard caught my eye-a neighbor's dog barking at some unseen intruder. Its voice was loud, startling, but contained. I froze. My breath slowed. Patience. Observation. The dog's curiosity would pass. I remained still, hidden in shadow, letting the moment stretch. The animal lost interest and padded away. Perfect. I moved to the back of the house, hammer in hand.' ...

His best friend is shot dead, and the world thinks Metropolitan Police Officer George Reynolds did it. They were in the one place that should've been safe, their police station. At least it was until aspiring detective George Reynolds came lucid from another blackout. Blood pools tantalisingly across the floor and there's two bullet holes in the wall. His best friend, officer Chris Wells is dead and George finds himself with the body and no memory of how. Only a tape recorder and a locker key for a clue. It's a dangerous game, from a lifetime of planning, rigged to make George look guilty and force him to remember what he really is and what he went through as a child. A pure born werewolf. Kidnapped from his real family to be experimented on. George gets dangled on strings by the killer puppet master and taken on a haunting journey never to be forgotten again. Made to relive the past trauma of a tragic fire that took the lives of the family that tortured him. Bodies continue to fall, all framed to fit the murderous narrative of an elaborate plot for revenge. When he finally remembers, when he's finally broken, another unique side to George wakes. So does a dark new world from the shadows. George learns the painful truth, and none of it is good. Nobody saw the real killer coming or expected that it could be someone they trusted. It will take everything George has to save his friends, new and old. Nobody will be the same. Nor will their view of the world. Its rife with the supernatural. **** Cover made on Canva Pro.
