Sarah Enríquez lives stuffed within a skinny frame, stuffed within soggy puddles, and stuffed within the muddy walls of Lo Vásquez Retiro, an Argentine Catholic youth camp. She grovels before Christ and endures the worst of those around her, escaping into the bushland to pray and sleep. She hurts.

Sarah isn't alone. She fears the resident psychopath; little does she know, through passion, psychosis, and this very individual, her fragile life will take a turn for the fantastical. 

Chapter titles inspired/taken from Mariana Enriquez.

Sarah Paulson One Shots by l0vingsarah

Sarah Paulson/her characters/some other characters one shots. I accept requests and will try to write them as fast as I can (pretty much anything except smut) Keep in mind: Some chapters will deal with triggering topics either I've been through or want to shed light on. I'm absolutely not glamorising mental illnesses, I write these to cope and to show that you're not alone. Dm's are always open so don't hesitate to write to me if you need it. Take care.

The Book of Trials || ONC 2019 by Kehanni

When Veia Phelde is cursed, she hardly expects the ruin it will invoke, but will breaking the curse come at a cost more than its worth in blood? +++ Veia Phelde had been satisfied with her life in her small cottage in the woods, never bothering anyone save for her job as a blacksmith's apprentice. But when she loses her job, Veia is forced out of her comfort zone only to run into a simple book that means so much more than she wants it to. With blank white pages and a title carved by knife, the single word that scars the leather can only be the work of fate, and the danger it contains... well, let's just say that's fate, too. When a devilishly handsome traveler offers to take her to the City of Magic to break the curse, Veia finds herself hopelessly entangled in a danger more powerful than she could ever know. +++ ~ Featured Wattpad Picks: Hidden Gem (May 2020) ~ @StoriesUndiscovered Diamond list (2019) ~ 2nd place in action/adventure, Coral Awards 2021 ~ 2nd place in action/adventure, The Pantheon Awards 2020 ~ 3rd place in adventure, The Blue Rose Awards, August 2019 ~ Written for the Open Novella Contest 2019, gen fic open prompt (since expanded; 45k word count) ~ Also available on Inkitt, Prose, Sweek, and Quotev (but Wattpad has the best version) ;) Beautiful cover by @TheFashionPixie

Everything Hurts by analiciapaloma

I knew what was coming later tonight, not only at home, but on the way there. I knew that reacting right now would just make it worse though. So I kept quiet and pretended that I was not dreading when I would be alone with the man that stood beside me, wondering when it became so normal to do so. Jason and Alicia have the perfect relationship from the outside looking in, but Alicia has kept her wounded spirit and body hidden well. After another one of Jason's violent rages that is impossible to hide, Alicia is finally able to get away from the abuse though. In the process of healing, she begins to relearn what trust, compassion, and safety are once again - that is, until Jason discovers her whereabouts.

The Withering by poojawrites

Only Sarah is privy to the truth that while others believe the devil has been vanquished, she alone bears the burden of knowing it has seamlessly slipped into a new vessel, ready to wreak havoc once more. Sarah carries a burden so heavy that not even her husband, Ayaan, knows about it. This secret weighs on her like an anchor, dragging her down into the depths of despair. It's a sorrowful tale she keeps locked away in the deepest corners of her soul, a narrative of pain and loss that Ayaan could never fathom. The shadows of her past loom large, casting a dark cloud over any hope for redemption. Amidst this darkness, sinister whispers echo in Sarah's mind, weaving a web of deceit and shame that threatens to suffocate her spirit. Will the shadows that cling to her spirit ever loosen their grip? Or will they continue to coil around her, suffocating the light within her until it flickers out entirely?
