What are your thoughts about life? How do you see life? Is your life worth living, even when it was like a nightmare everyday?
Celestia is not so unique but not so typical. Her life is pretty simple. Rich, Smart, and Pretty. But each lives have different plots. Hers was superficial. Invading someone thoughts was one of her habits. But its really true, that none could have a life so perfect. She's an orphan, only with her strict Grandmother who always controls her around, that she isn't even aloud to see the real world, outside her privilege bubble.
When she met, this narcissistic and mysterious guy from her nightmare... that's when she asked herself; is she that lonely, to be excited sleeping every moment, just to meet that guy? Not knowing that there's lying secrets about her life.
When life is a nightmare, would you escape? Or fiercely overcome the fear? Let's join Celestia on her journey finding out how life was about facing your reality.

The Man Named Death ✔
"I don't know what I did to make you hate me, I haven't done anything to warrant how you ignore me! Please, just tell me!" "I'm in love with you, damn it!" He roars. "I love you so much Aphrodite, and you scare me because you are so strong and I don't want to be the one to break you!" * Aphrodite Muerte is hiding something and so is her long term crush Thanatos Amaro. Both are helplessly in love with one another and both have very different approaches on how to hide it. Love makes you do crazy things and with Aphrodite and Thanatos, it's no different. Pretending to hate Aphrodite, Thanatos manages to hide his true feelings which takes a toll on both of them. Thanatos has no idea what he's doing. Past trauma rules over Aphrodite at night causing nightmares and panic during the day. Aphrodite has no idea how to live life outside of pain. Abuse has a way of shaping people, and she's barely mended from being so broken. Both have friends that force them closer but their love might just be the reason why they end up staying together. Afterall, someone can only stay away from the person they're in love with for so long. One argument and a couple of confessions later leaves them on a confusing path that has the opportunity to be beautiful or disastrous. Love is magical but it is also savage. For Aphrodite and Thanatos, they are each other's downfalls and each others saviors. How long they last is up to them. How much they go through to get together is up to fate. In the end, will they make it or will their love end in splinters and heartache? * WARNING: Mature Content (of all sorts).

He walks over to me and says, "So we might have a slight problem." I look at him in confusion as he continues speaking, "Do you remember Lucian Kingston?" I nod. Of course I remember that creep. "Well he had something to do with your car accident." *** 𝓐𝓾𝓻𝓸𝓻𝓪 𝓑𝓵𝓪𝓴𝓮, 17, the girl that's always in her brothers shadow.

His Dark Claim
"Why can't you let me go?" Her timid voice echoed through the walls of his heart and he heaved a deep sigh. He couldn't. How could he? She was the air he breathed. Blood in his veins. It was so simple and yet he couldn't make her understand. How did their relationship end up like this? He loved her and she loved him, didn't she? Then why? "I cannot do so, Dolcezza. I'll go crazy without you, you cannot leave me, I won't allow you to." And she shook her head, a laugh-filled with disbelief escaping her lips as she struggled to unbind herself from the chains. "Then at least free me of them." "No." A love so vicious it binds. A madness so deep it consumes. Escape is an illusion, and freedom... a cruel dream. For in his arms lies ruin... and in hers, salvation. ***** Celestine didn't know what love was until she crossed paths with her childhood crush, the stories of their childhood took them to their past and they started spending time with each other. She started finding her muse in his presence and he started giving her everything she ever desired.

Love and care were replaced by raw anger and ravenous rage and he did what he thought he should have done initially. He claimed her. For hi,m love was a fire that scorches his heart, but madness, it was a damn poison that devoured him from the inside.
Surviving Love
"I'm not scared of you, I'm scared of history repeating itself" I whispered out. He grabbed my chin to make me look him in the eye, "I didn't hear you". Looking into his eye I repeated "I'm not scared of you, I'm scared of history repeating itself". His gaze was so intense "Peaches I would never hurt you I promise", his gaze slipped from my eyes to my lips as my tongue slips out to moisten my dry lips. His gaze travels back up to me eyes as he closes the distance between us his head dips low close to my face as his lips touch mine. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Mia's life in the past 21 years has been up and down, she is finally ready to break out of her habits and start being her old self.

Indenture
"Celestia." The voice of a familiar creature reached her human ears. Her gaze trailed up to meet her masters pair and this initiated his anger but she remained emotionless as he began to complain. "What the hell was that just now? I've been training you for the last ten years and I don't remember you fighting with the speed of a snail. I wouldn't have been surprised if these weak demons killed you." The straight black strands of Celestia's silky hair sway slightly under her hood as she stepped off the pile of dead bodies. The sharp weapon she summoned earlier transformed into light, allowing itself to be absorbed by the tattoo on the palm of her hand. The male glared as she disregarded his last words and spun on her heels, intending to leave the sickening scene. "How many times have I told you to not act like that towards me?" His form materialised in front of her, this allowing his long fingers to wrap around her neck. Celestia choked as her body was driven back and smacked against one of the trees in the vast forest. He released her once her face grew pale and watched smugly as she coughed and desperately inhaled as much as oxygen as she could. She bowed stiffly towards her master as soon as she managed to sort herself out. "I apologize, Zerro." His lips formed into a cruel grin and he unexpectedly planted a kick in her stomach causing Celestia to hit against the rough bark a second time. "You are just a weapon...nothing else." -------------------------------------------------------- During a majority of her life, Celestia suffered through misfortune after misfortune, thanks to the demon, Zerro, who tricked her into creating a contract with him. When Han, a new student transfers to her school, he makes it his mission to help lift away her suffering. Will he succeed or will Zerro stop him from doing so?Complete
Anoxia
Xylia has always teetered between madness and prophecy. For years she's dreamed events before they happen a gift that's left her paranoid, unstable, alone. In a world where consciousness is a bug and gods are algorithms with ego problems, Xylia will learn that reality isn't meant to be understood. It's meant to be rewritten. Here, divination is a sentence. And knowing the truth... is the first step to losing yourself. ✒️✦ This isn't a book. It's a gradual collapse. You won't find maps. You'll find glitches. Not heroes. Fractures. Not worldbuilding. But worlds that come apart while you watch. Xylia is a contaminated consciousness. She overthinks. She mis-feels. She fixates on details no one else sees. That doesn't make her wrong. It makes her real. If you feel lost, good. If you feel unsettled, stay. In this world, coherence is a lie. And breath... is something you learn only when it's gone. Welcome to Anoxia. The first 5 chapters in English are now up! Next batch (chapters 6-10) coming this Friday. This is an ongoing self-translation project - raw, glitchy, and deeply personal. Thanks for reading, bleeding, and glitching with me. 🖤 I'm Italian and I'm translating my novel myself-so if you spot errors or phrases that could be smoother in English, please tell me. You'd be helping me immensely! 👁️ Read Anossia and tell me what crosses your mind. Your comments are the heart of this project.

Blood in the Stars [Mature]
All I wanted is to graduate, get my diploma and work my ass off. Instead, I got abducted (kind of), dumped into Celestia Academy (actual name) and told I was the Vessel, the one girl bound to twelve impossibly powerful, impossibly attractive warriors who either want to protect me, train me... or roast me alive with their magic. Great. Now I'm dodging prophecies, trying not to trip over threads of fate (literally), and arguing with gods who think I should sacrifice myself for the 'greater good.' But I'm not like the girls before me. I'm Lia Fleur Beaumont, I'm graduating with a degree if it kills me, and I'm not about to let the stars decide my ending. Especially when I've accidentally bound my soul to all twelve of them. Some call it an honor. Others call it a curse. Me? I call it Tuesday.
