Mature

Young and successful Edward Staulker, is an attorney with a very uneventful life.
He lost his faith in mankind many years ago-even as a child, he recognised the innate fakery borne by every Homo sapien and always resigned to a purer intercourse with the forest.
One day, he received a gift. But to accept this gift, he had to go on a journey; a journey that would change his life forever.

Jane Stanley, a university student, has had countless rough patches in her life. It's no wonder how she became a steadfast pessimist.
However, a little part of her still hopes that things will get better-a dream that fate dashes, the moment she crossed paths with this very strange man.

While the outcome of their meeting will require these two to tango; a third party, Fate, has joined the duo from behind the scenes. What happens when three try to tango?

The Forgotten Trails by ZRABYSS

Eighteen people arrive at a remote mountain lodge - couples, friends, strangers- each drawn by different reasons: a vacation, a retreat, a break from life. None of them realize they've been lured there by something deeper than coincidence. Something ancient. Something waiting. As a snowstorm seals them in, unsettling events begin to unravel their reality. Hallucinations. Shifting memories. Sudden violence. The lodge becomes a trap, and one by one, they begin to fall - victims of forces none of them can explain. But this isn't the first time. Though they don't remember it, they've all been here before. In other lives. Other versions of themselves. And each time, the outcome is the same. There is a reason they keep coming back.

Petals Beneath The Blade by darklovedeception

If one gets cruelty when all they seek is love and kindness... "Pain and revenge both may be satisfying and everything heals with time or maybe we learn to live with our burdens!" But once damage is done, is already done...and past has its own way...it lingers and waits and when it consumes the one he is destroyed be it a hero or a villain... I am sorry if you're seeking a typical romance. It contains lots of chaos and chaos and chaos.

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐀𝐋𝐋𝐔𝐑𝐄 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐋𝐊𝐄𝐑'𝐒 𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐑𝐓. Book 2 in "Dark Fate" series. "Obsession is like a wildfire, consuming everything in its path even friendships and boundaries." • ✧ • Vivaan Grover is my boyfriend. He still is. But sometimes love doesn't feel like love anymore. It used to be simple - him and me against the world. Until the world turned into shadows and silence. Until the messages began, the gifts I never asked for, the voice that never spoke but somehow followed me everywhere. My stalker didn't just watch me... he haunted me. And when that wasn't enough, he made me choose - him or Vivaan. He never laid a finger on me. He didn't need to. Fear does its job when it's patient. I broke the heart I swore I'd never touch. And the moment I did, the stalker disappeared... like he was never there at all. And somehow, Vivaan and I found our way back to each other. But everything had changed. He held me, but his arms no longer felt like home. Не kissed me, but there was distance in every touch, a silence between our bodies that no words could fill. He was with me... but he wasn't with me. And just when I thought I'd finally breathe again, Kian Albrecht walked into my life. My brother's best friend. His presence is like smoke and fire, impossible to ignore, dangerous to inhale. He doesn't ask. He claims. He doesn't knock. He breaks through. And when his eyes fall on me, I feel it deep in my bones - I'm not safe, not from him... not from what he awakens in me. Now, I'm unraveling. My stalker is watching again. Vivaan is slipping away. And Kian-he's not a savior. He's a storm dressed in obsession, and somehow, I'm standing in the center of it, unable to move, unable to run. This isn't a love story. This is a warning. And I think I'm already too late to save myself.

Bryan Brent(The U-Turn) by MystiquCal

Four good hours gone and yet nothing - no solution. I kicked a chair in my office hard sending it flying through an empty space as it crashed to the floor. Shelving off all the documents on my table to the floor, I created a perfect mess. The feeling of frustration engulfed me, tightening all the muscles in my body. It was like I was having a panic attack. I quickly helped myself to the bottle of whisky on the bar and drank uncontrollably from it. I remembered the last time I drank this way and what happened. But at this moment, all I needed was to forget everything that was happening. Closing my eyes briefly to relieve all of the tension, I opened them again but the pain was still there, the reality of my loss was dawning on me completely and I was helpless. 'Desperate times calls for desperate measures' that's what they say. Bryan a twenty-seven years old billionaire had a perfect life until Maryrose Brent, his mother decides to show up after ten years and a supposed dead uncle finally resurrects. Suddenly his perfect life takes a U-Turn and begins to crumble bit by bit before his eyes. Could it all be a mere coincidence or is there someone truly behind all of the happenings? And how far, are they willing to take it? Perhaps, till the last breath is sucked out of his body. [Unedited] Started February 2020 Ended July 2020 Word count [144,591]

"WHAT? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?" Everyone in the room, including the new professor, was stunned when she yelled. He turned his head towards us and asked, "Do you have any problems, miss?" I can tell he's looking at me even if he's talking to my bestfriend. I looked up and we held eyes for a few moments before I return to my senses. I quickly replied on behalf of my oh-so-overreacting bestfriend, "Nothing, sir" "Oh sorry, my fault; I tend to overreact. Again, my apologies." Ellie said. She was about to take a seat when the new professor abruptly stopped her. "Did I tell you to take a seat?" Oh my god. "No, sir" she replied, dropping her head. "And you, follow me to my office immediately," he said, pointing at me. "Me? But, sir, I did not-" "No buts," he stated. Because he is our new professor and principal, I don't have a choice except to follow him. "I'm sorry, Avivi," Ellie said quietly. I sighed and nodded my head. I noticed him waiting for me outside the room. He motioned for me to approach him, which I did. As I approached him, he spoke one word that has always made me shiver He cupped my face and said, "Mine." - Book 1: MINE Highest Rankings #1 Forcelove out of 11 stories #1 Urban out of 77 stories #2 Stalker out of 14.1K stories #3 Force out of 4.3K stories #3 Protective out of 126 stories #5 Psychological out of 664 stories #8 Possessive out of 761 stories #11 Mine out of 1.12K stories #13 Psycho out of 14.4K stories #19 Psychological out of 16.9k stories #20 Jealousy out of 1.61K stories #27 Obsession out of 15.8K stories #38 Psycho-thriller out of 4.41K stories #145 Hot out of 5.29K stories Okay, enjoy reading!
