Khry Mharizze Marcelle already perfected the art of pretending infront of everybody surrounds her.Hiding her real emotions is a piece of cake for her.
She was taught by her past, to never let anyone see you weak and in tears.
Unconsciously Khry did a mask to conceal and protect her bare wounded soul.
And that is pretending.
She's used on faking her emotions, she's used on pretending, she's used of always putting a mask on.
Most of the people around her admire her gleefulness and strength.But behind of everyone's knowledge she's far from being one, behind the mask she use, is the wounded soul, behind the bright smile she wear is a crying woman in the dark corner.
No one knows her misery.She didn't let anyone see her weak state not even a glance.Until one day she's drowning herself with liquors, she unknowngly break down and crying shamelessly to the stranger.
She took off her mask for a while infront of this stranger.She let herself be weak and being console by someone whom she didn't know.She let out what she really feels and who she really is behind those masks. And there is one thing she feel.
She feels free... and it feels good.

They were kind and honestly the opposite of every supernatural creature that existed in that era. They built their kingdom protecting as many humans as they could but the dark creatures had other things planed. There was a war that broke out.

Elaka was the savior of all humans. She created a boarder and the world was divided in two: The Land of Light; was so peaceful that it had to be shielded from the world.

Because Of Him
As a young girl she was only happy. Not a care in the world or insecurity to worry about. She was a bigger girl and was teased when she reached 3rd grade. She cried her tears to her mom, but as she got older she cried them to herself. Alone in the dark as a tear rolls off her nose, she drops her head and lets out a big scream into her pillow. Not to let her parents hear, this is beginning to become her normal routine. Her tears dry and she lays on her back looking up at the ceiling, her body is cold and life less. Suicide has become an appealing option to her. But instead she pushes those thoughts back and rolls over on her side and drifts off to sleep, alone and empty inside, she was now beautifully curvy but her insecurities never let her see that. Until the new bad boy comes into play and changes everythingLengkap
❝𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗚𝗘𝗡𝗧𝗟𝗘 𝗦𝗛𝗔𝗗𝗢𝗪 ━━ 𝗝.𝗝𝗞 ✓
He was her stalker. But not the kind that lurked in the shadows with sinister intent. No, he was simply a man in love-too afraid to step forward, too hesitant to risk rejection. A silent observer, hopelessly drawn to the woman who had unknowingly become his entire world. To everyone else, he was intimidating. A towering figure wrapped in ink and muscle, exuding an unapproachable presence that made people steer clear. They never looked deeper. Never saw the quiet soul beneath the hardened exterior. Judgments were made the moment he entered a room, long before he even had the chance to speak. But she was different. She saw him. And more importantly-she liked being seen by him. If he thought he was going unnoticed, he was sorely mistaken. He wasn't a very good stalker-not by a long shot. She recognised his face, the way he lingered just far enough away to watch but never close enough to act. His clumsy attempts at remaining unseen were anything but stealthy, and truth be told, she found them utterly endearing. He wasn't frightening. He wasn't menacing. He was just a man, staring at her from the edges of his own fear, caught between longing and hesitation. But she wasn't going to make it easy for him. She wanted him to make the first move. She wanted him to prove to himself that he was brave enough to stand before her, to reach for what he so clearly desired. So, with a knowing glint in her eyes, she played along-her actions deliberate, her teasing methodical. She became a puzzle for him to solve, a challenge he couldn't ignore. And with each passing day, she felt the tension coil tighter between them, the invisible string drawing them closer. And really, if he ever wanted to harm her-which was laughable-he wouldn't stand a chance. The only thing he was a danger to was his own fear of losing her before he ever had the chance to claim her.Lengkap
Grace
What's the point of pretending we're alright when we aren't? We're only humans, so why can't we face our weaknesses and problems head-on instead of trying hard to appear perfect to the world around us? What exactly are we trying to prove? That we're perfect? * An actress pursuing a topnotch movie; A producer that isn't what he seems; An unintentional murder; And a God that worked behind the scenes. It took all these for Grace to realise that her name wasn't just a name- it was a lifeline. _Her_ lifeline. Grace was saved... By grace.Lengkap
Daughters of Hecate: Impure Blood.

The strength he emanated was terrifying, like a being from the coldest, most soulless underworld... making her doubt her real existence and her own sanity..., but why, even though she felt a terror that paralyzed her body, she couldn't forget the sadness she saw in his eyes? They were begging... for what? Someone? A love? To be rescued? Who was that "God" that lived in the darkness? His face gave her the feeling of recognition, he was not totally strange to her soul..., but at the same time, she was absolutely sure she had never seen him before... her blood warmed and her heart beat faster... What did it all mean? Was it all a result of her longing for her companion who she was told would never come? Or did it really have some other meaning? I had to find out...Lengkap

He was a man of power, feared and worshipped in the same breath, ruling over the world of shadows where morality was a myth and sin was the only language spoken. Love? That was for the weak. He didn't do love. He didn't believe in innocence. Until her. She was untouched by the darkness he thrived in-a vision of purity, a forbidden fruit he had no right to crave. But the devil had never been one to deny himself temptation. And she... she was his greatest one. She should have run. He told her to. Instead, she stayed, unaware that the moment she stepped into his world, she became his. His to ruin. His to cherish. His purest sin. And now, even if heaven came calling-he'd rather burn than let her go.
Is it too late to say Sorry?
"The fuck you are leaving me." His roar cracked through the hall like lightning. Ara didn't blink. She stood there, calm as death, done to her core. No tears. No tremble. Just a weary exhale as she turned her back on him - the one thing he never thought she'd do. Before she could take a step, his hand shot out, gripping her arm like he was holding on to life itself. "Where are you going, Ara!" His command shook the pack. But she wasn't his to command. Not anymore. Ara ripped her arm free with a force that made even his wolf recoil. "Don't. Touch. Me." Her aura slammed into him, cold and merciless. "You think I'll stand here and watch you mate and breed her?" she hissed, every word a dagger. His throat bobbed. "She meant nothing." She laughed - sharp, broken, brutal. "Yeah? That's why you were fucking her in your office? Couldn't even hide the scent of your betrayal." "Ara, it was a mistake-" She stepped closer, eyes blazing. "Your mistakes come in episodes, Alpha. Season one, season two, season three. You don't make mistakes. You make choices." He swallowed hard. "I don't need her. I need you." "Lies," she spat. "Every damn sentence you breathe is a lie. I can't even look at you without feeling sick." He flinched like her words physically hit him. "That female behind you?" she pointed, not bothering to glance. "Perfect for you. Go mark her. Breed her. Hell, fuck her for all I care." Her voice cracked - but she kept going, blade steady even when bleeding. "I don't need you. Not anymore." His knees crashed to the floor. The mighty Alpha. On the ground. For her. "Ara... I'm sorry. I'm really fucking sorry." His voice broke like he finally understood what loss tasted like. She stared at him with a sad, devastating smile. "Isn't it too late for that, Mate?" One tear escaped - and she crushed it away with her thumb. Then she turned. Walked. Didn't look back. But he didn't chase her. Because he knew. He didn't just lose her. He wrecked her.Lengkap
The Girl Behind The Mask ✔
I have always been the invisible one. No one knows I am there. I try to fit in with everyone, but the students end up ignoring me. When I speak, no words escape my mouth. I have always known that there was another part of me, that wants to shine, but is too scared to show her face. It is as if we have been hiding behind the same mask and no one sees us. We put on a different mask to try to be like everyone else, but we're really covering up our true personality. As if I am a nerd, that everyone can just walk all over. However, I am not that type of person. It is as if, the only way you would be able to get attention, is if you become a "bad boy," or you wear clothes that show too much skin. I am not like that; I do not know how to act "bad". I have always been a good girl and I do not know how to dress like that. I mean I do have some type of fashion sense. When I say I'm a good girl I mean that I am one of those good girls who gets what she want most of the time, but doesn't talk to her parents about her social life, or when she gets a new boyfriend. I keep to myself and they keep to themselves. I mean they still talk to me when they think I need something, and they respect my privacy. I just do not know what to do with my life anymore. I have hidden and gotten ignored, from the world a little too long. I bet if I just disappeared right now, that no one would even know I am gone, let alone miss me. This life of invisibility has to stop. * * * * * * Living a life of invisibility isn't always a good thing. Everyone needs a little attention every now-and-then. So why can't Khalia Bright get a break from her schoolmates? She does everything right, doesn't she? Well, she'll soon find the answers to her problem when a very handsome young man steps into the picture. Will she be able to uncover her true self, or continue to hide behind the mask?Lengkap
The Sleuth and The Enchantress
Teen werewolf, Scott McCall, his human best friend, Stiles Stilinski, and practicing Pagan, (Y/n) (L/n), must navigate through their knew found supernatural filled lives while trying to maintain romantic relationships and good grades, all while attempting to keep themselves and their loved ones alive. Hunted every other day, unexplainable murders to solve, pack issues, new supernatural beings popping up like moles, and everyday life to get through, can the trio and their friends make it to graduation alive? Read to find out! Note below, please read: I give a lot of credit to the writer of "Just a Feeling", @TaesWolfie. When I thought of writing this, I began reading other people's fanfictions to motivate me back into writing while already having a good idea of what I wanted the story to entail, and the ideas I had for my story @TaesWolfie had already used in her story. I changed a lot of my original ideas so that mine didn't seem like a complete carbon copy rip off of hers while still keeping as many of my original ideas as possible. Since we had such similar ideas I don't see it fair to not credit her in some way. I highly recommend you all read "Just a Feeling", it's so well written and is currently in my private library. I have been on this app for a long time, I've read a lot of great writings of fanfictions, and JoF is genuinely the only one I've read that has evoked such strong emotions from me whilst reading that I actually laughed out loud, cried real tears, etc. It's so well written it's like you're watching the show again but you can actually imagine (Y/n) being there and their place in the storyline. I've always loved when writers make playlists for their stories and plan to do so for this one at some point, and for my future works, @TaesWolfie did it for JoF and it's so good, I have it added on my Spotify right now and I highly recommend it as well. With all that said, I hope you enjoy my story.
