What would you do if you know that your days are numbered? What if there are ways for you to add your days so you could live longer? Would you risk everything so that your life is spared?
Thud. Thud. Thud. Thud.
Was that the sound of my heart hammering against my ribcage or was that the sound of my footsteps? I could feel my fear swallowing my whole being. No time to think, survival comes first. I looked around me trying to get a sense of where I am. Trees. Tall, towering trees. They looked like they were at least 300 years old. For a split second, I envied them. Envy to the fact that they call this forest home, whereas to me, it is a labyrinth I am trying my best to escape. My chest heaves upwards and downwards trying to pump more oxygen into my lungs.
Dried leaves and twigs crunched beneath our feet as we kept going. My senses heightened as more adrenaline coursed through my body. My eyes flickered from the compass clutched in my right hand to the winding path in front of us. Every once in a while, I wiped the beads of sweat trickling down my forehead which was clouding my vision.
We are not predators, we are the preys living our outnumbered days.

His Ruthless Temptation
I saw her long before she saw me. She didn't know then that her fate had already been sealed, that every step she took was drawing her closer to me. Closer to what she would become. There was something in her-something fragile, something wild. A fear she tried to hide, wrapped in defiance and confidence. It was intoxicating, watching her, knowing that no one else could see what I saw. No one else could feel the pull like I did. The slow, deliberate unraveling of her world as it would soon be tethered to mine. I felt my heart beat once, hard and fast. It was the only signal I needed. She would be mine-not in some fleeting, hollow way. No. I would strip away every shield, every defense, until she was laid bare, body and soul. And when she looked at me for the first time, I knew. She was already mine. A. Trigger Warning ⚠️: This story contains intense and graphic content, exploring dark and disturbing themes that may be triggering for some readers.

The Deep And The Dark [COMPLETED][UNEDITED]
The air smelled of gasoline and death. That's what woke me first. Not the searing pain in my side or the impossible heat coming from somewhere behind me. No, it was the smell. And then the memories hit me like the bus hit the tree. And I was rolling down the side of a mountain, surrounded by ten other screaming kids and three panicked adults. All of which had a ninety six percent chance of death. My eyes were open. My emerald eyes, so rare that only two percent of the population had them. And my throat was burning, and my skin was tingling. And all I could think about was the probability that I was dying. Scattered around me I knew were twelve other people with a ninety nine percent chance of already being dead. And I didn't look around to find out. Because I knew I was one hundred percent right.Complete
