Water and Wind by Blank___canvas

Every year, in the old log cabin in the heart of the woods, a face appears at the window. A haunted face, illuminated by the light of the moon with the backdrop of the dark forest. It is the same story each year, the same cabin, woman, circumstances. But not the same story. This story is her story, because behind the haunting and the shadows and the fury, there was a woman. Three years. Three years, and seven people are gone. Seven, plus her. Years before these hauntings, in the very same woods, the village held a trial. All of those with magic, lined up in chains at the stake. One wrong move and they will be sucked underfoot. They know this well. But maybe being trampled by hundreds of feet of all sizes is a better fate than what awaits them. After all, the body, no matter how deep its wounds, heals faster than the heart. When Rose was a teenager, she entered a dare into the woods. Everyone said La Esperanta was folklore, nothing but a story. But now, she's eighty years old and she is the last

A Rose For The Damned by Seth_The_Gremlin04

"Roses in Blood" Morrigan Vale appears to have it all-a thriving career as a criminal psychologist, a sharp intellect, and a calm, composed demeanor. But behind closed doors, she harbors a dark secret. Fueled by a deep sense of justice and a past she cannot forget, Morrigan has become judge, jury, and executioner for those who escape the system's grasp. Her victims are the wicked: child abusers, corrupt figures, and those whose sins have left scars on the innocent. To the world, they're cases gone cold or tragedies swept under the rug. To Morrigan, they're canvases-meticulously planned and executed with the precision of an artist. Her calling card? Blood-red roses blooming in the aftermath of her reckoning. Detective Caleb Blake is no stranger to the failures of the justice system. Haunted by his own mother's unsolved murder, he's determined to uncover the truth behind the chilling crime scenes that bear Morrigan's signature. What he doesn't know is that the killer he's hunting is closer than he could ever imagine. As Morrigan's dual lives intertwine, the line between hunter and hunted begins to blur. Can she outsmart the system she once worked to protect? Or will her carefully constructed façade crack under the weight of her own sins? In a world where justice is flawed and morality is gray, how far would you go to ensure the wicked get what they deserve?

Scarlet by Dipressed24_7

"Your favorite color." "Hmm." Davon let out as he leaned in towards her. He inspected Scarlet's cold eyes with full concentration, and after a few seconds, he finally responded when he moved away from her. "Auburn." ♢♦♢ Scarlet. She was a nightmare brought to life. A horror story to be told around campfires. A beast used to scare children if they didn't go to bed on time. The name alone struck fear into the most bravest of men or women. At the age of just 27, she had grown to be the most fatal assassin to walk the face of the Earth, and no one even knew what she looked like. Scarlet purposely left harmless traces behind with every kill, which served as a reminder to everyone that she still lurked in the shadows. But on one occasion, a dark-haired man with even darker eyes left a trace on her heart. 18+
