Kaia stared at him, trying to process his words that seemed like they were in a different language.
"No," she said simply before walking quickly out of the kitchen and down the hall toward the stairs.
William caught her by the arm before she could take a step up. "Kaia, what you did in the alley was only the beginning."
"What are you talking about?" she asked, moving her arm out of his grasp.
"You took out that last guy almost as easily as I subdued the first one." When she just continued staring at him like he was a crazy person, he went on, "Look, I know it's a lot. It sounds ridiculous but you know something has changed in you and it's going to keep changing."
A tear fell down Kaia's cheek. "I don't-- I don't understand."
"You will."

As his hips move in a hypnotic rhythm against her, his eyes drift to her face to see her erotic expression. What he saw took him a back so much that he stopped all movement.

She moved his hands down as Samuele clenches his jaw. Clementine's fine body moves off of his lap and walks towards the sheer curtains. She lifts one and turns her head towards him.

Night Disease
REVISED EDITION COMING OUT MONTHLY/COMPLETED In a world overrun by zombies, A single bite heralds doom - except for Kaindra, who defies death itself, being undead already. ******** As humanity struggles to adapt to the new reality of zombies-infested streets and lurking supernatural creatures from ancient myths and legends, survival becomes an ever-evolving challenge. Survival is a constant battle not only against the undead but also against supernatural creatures and their zealous followers. The relentless onslaught of zombies and the mysterious reemergence of mythical beings push society to its limits. Civilization's last bastions fall one by one, teetering on the brink of collapse. As these ancient myths awaken, they reveal intentions that are far from clear- some may hold the key to salvation, while others could herald further doom. The question remains: Can humanity unravel the mysteries of these legendary beings in time to save themselves, or will they fall prey to the very legends they once dismissed? ___ Excerpt: Taking a deep breath, I lean closer to the mirror, my skin prickling. I thought it was a trick of the light, but as I stare at my reflection, my fragile lies crumble away. The reflection staring back at me feels unrecognizable. My once deep, dark brown eyes now glimmer with an otherworldly light, like twin moons suspended in a sea of silver. The faint glow within them swirls softly, catching the dim flicker of flame I summoned, like ripples across a moonlit lake. Their alien intensity sends a chill down my spine. The orbs seemed to hold a universe within, depths of endless mysteries and ancient wisdom beyond my grasp. ___ Warning: Mentions of suicide and self-harm Beautiful cover made by @scmimi.

You wake up one day in the body of a seven year old girl, hair dark as the abyss and eyes like smoldering embers. Memories from a long ago past from what feels like another world stuck in your mind gives you knowledge of the world you now inhabit. But this wasn't like before when you played the video game, no this is different because you're someone else. You know who you are- Blanca De Linderbrande, the villainess of your most beloved Otome game, Roses and Ravens which features the country of Valetia. However, you didn't play Blanca on your screen.

But deep down, you find yourself not wanting to be evil, not wanting to do the horrible things you're destined to. You just want a peaceful life, one contrasting the life that your father, the Duke Alexander De Linderbrande had set out before you. He tried to drill into you that you cannot change fate, that your destiny is what it is and you can only accept it. But you never could, so why not break destiny and push beyond what could be? After all, it seems that you have free will here beyond that of any ordinary video game. You know what events are coming, you have watched the life of the villainess as Ellastasia, and by your eighteenth birthday you are quite prepared for what is to come- or at least you thought you were. Some things seemed to have changed when you came to this world. And when your time at the academy begins, you can already notice things are different than they were supposed to be. Making new rivalries, connections, and decisions, what will this new life be and will you take the reigns? Or will you fall into place like the puzzle piece you've been raised to be?

Can they come together in time to stop a futuristic threat or will the villain prove to be too powerful all over again? EXCERPT --------------------------------------------------------------- "You think she'll take the bait?" I asked "I have no idea," she admitted. Kadima opened up the portal and we stepped through. It was the only place she could be sure would have no civilians around. The office was stripped and abandoned. It was an old, basic, nondescript building that was set for demolition. It was dark and dusty. "How long until you think they come, if they come." "I don't think it will be long before they realise. I'm sure she must have some way of knowing when the timeline changes." "Suppose the timeline hasn't changed and this was apart of the plan all along," a voice said in the darkness. "What if something as small as this doesn't change the outcome of this timeline," Mistress Mind snickered as she emerged from behind the wall. Her visor glowed in the darkness. She leaned against the wall. "Did you think something this small would be able to stop us." "We had hoped," I fired up my pendent.Complete

W.E.L.F.S: The Snake's Eye (COMPLETED)
"I saw you and you were just standing there. I started walking towards you and you-just-just stood there." Stuttered Stiles. "I tapped on your shoulder and you turned around. You didn't answer me. You didn't even notice I was there. You just stared at something, something that wasn't visible and y-you-" Paused Stiles, whose legs were vibrating and he started to breathe heavily. "And I what?" I asked trying to get the words out. "You died." He stated. "What?" Asked I, like he had just said the most craziest thing ever. It was slightly humorous. He had to be joking, I thought to myself. "You- just died." Murmured Stiles, who had stopped shaking and had stood up. -------------- The world consists of many parallel multiverses. Each separate and unique. We all know Earth 1, yet not many people are familiar to the lost planet, Earth 1000.

To save her children, the Queen of the planet rifted her children into Earth, where they lived for 500 years, unaware of their cursed destiny.

You're Like Heaven to Touch
"You don't really like to open up, do you?" The words startle me, seemingly jagged and impure in contrast to the light and beautiful atmosphere we were in. "I didn't say that." Asher snorted, "You didn't have to." I was quiet for a moment, looking out to the beach and resting my cheek on my knee. "It- It's not that I don't like to," I struggled to find the words good enough to explain. "I just think, maybe, I don't know how to anymore." Asher stares at me for a moment, eyes filled with an emotion that I can't put my finger on. I turn to face him properly, almost gasping when he appears much closer than I remembered. Before I can turn the moment into a joke, he speaks. "Well, if you ever want to learn again, I'll always be right here, Willa. I'm always right here." * Willa Montgomery didn't expect to be uprooted for her last summer before college, but two weeks in, here she is: Santa Monica, California. Willa hasn't had the best life as of recent, and with the impending damage of her parents messy divorce getting harder and harder to avoid, her mom decides the best place for her to be is anywhere but home. Enter Sylvia Edwards, Willa's mother's best friend since middle school, and Willa's godmother. Sylvia is more than glad to host Willa for the entire summer, opening up her beautiful home to her immediately. And with that beautiful home comes the beautiful Asher Edwards, and a whole bunch of memories Willa wasn't even aware she had. Living in a house with Asher, the sweetest yet most persistent guy to exist is both heartwarming and dangerous all at once, because soon enough, the barriers Willa spent years building around her fragile heart are coming down- and fast. Willa had never realized how frozen she was until Asher started to melt her ice. With eyes like oceans, a smile like honey and a touch like heaven. cover by @stylesoftimothee
