Memories were nothing more than lost pieces of tattered sorrow, a hazy past chipped away until little more was recognized...other than him.
It stung more than his sweet words, thinly veiled promises of safety from everything  ̶b̶u̶t̶ ̶h̶i̶m̶s̶e̶l̶f̶. 

Seven hundred and thirty-seven days spent locked under his eye, trapped in his embrace at the end of every sunset. Those cabin walls kept many secrets - painted many unseen horrors and captured heart wrenching screams of heartbreak. 

Her past was a ghost, an ache burned into her soul more-so than the scars marred into her skin and the countless tears shed.
Determination was a weak ember...but it was there. It was a flame waiting to spark upon wings of freedom - a family long forgotten and longed for. 

The world can be cruel - mockery the knife glistening against open wounds yearning for escape. 

̶H̶o̶l̶d̶ ̶m̶e̶.̶ ̶H̶e̶a̶l̶ ̶m̶e̶.̶ ̶T̶o̶u̶c̶h̶ ̶m̶e̶.̶ ̶S̶a̶v̶e̶ ̶m̶e̶.̶
̶O̶h̶ ̶G̶o̶d̶s̶ ̶p̶l̶e̶a̶s̶e̶ ̶s̶a̶v̶e̶ ̶m̶e̶-̶ 

"You're the air I breathe, Maeri." His voice would whisper like a cruel angel. "You're the light that fills my eyes after rain- you're the savior to my lost soul- a guiding light only you can provide..." 
A kiss always haunted my lips, his presence attached like my own shadow. "the touch I yearn to feel each and every time I wake. The voice I long to hear sending me to sleep. I love you more than words can express, more than art can entail." 

̶I̶ ̶f̶e̶l̶t̶ ̶m̶y̶s̶e̶l̶f̶ ̶c̶r̶u̶m̶b̶l̶e̶.̶.̶.̶
I found myself searching for fragments of solace-a favorite melody, a comforting scent. 
Who was I? 
Who was little, lonely Maeri?
Who was...little. Lonely. Me...?

[FINISHED] ____________________________________ Whenever a bad thing occurs, someone would always say "Look at the bright side!" or "Look at the silver lining!" They however, don't know that there isn't always hope in despair. If there is light, there is a shadow after all. As I like to say "Don't waste time. There may be no tomorrow". ____________________________________ William Adams, just about like any other normal person in this world. Though, what makes him stand out is that he is somewhat different, alluring even. But what does make him stand out? This person had a wish just like any other person his age after all... Being in love with another person that will also love them back. And did he find someone like that? Yes, he did. And maybe she did as well. Quite a love-struck couple those two were. If you saw them, you'd think they would have already married... Though, taken from the tragic tales of high school love... There is a reason it's called first love only. It is the first, but not the last. They split apart. He was 16 at the time. He couldn't eat properly for days. Cried endlessly for someone he lost. Though what was he crying for? She did not die after all... Ẃ̴̱̝̟͒́̊̽̔͛̐̒̀̐̈́͌̾ȩ̶̨̗̫͈͈͓̮͕́̓̌͊͗̑͒̐i̸͎̰̟̳̰̪͚͕̪̮̯̫͇̎̈́̈̎͜r̷̡̠͚̳̮͕̭̪̬͉̥̈́͌̍̍̆̅̌͂̌̎͛̚͜ͅḑ̸̱͕͒̓̐. And as in all things of life, everything is not permanent. Nothing stays still. Time is linear, It will always move forwards. He just about turned 18. Studying in college, Met someone new, and has a supportive friend... It seems he has reached the "Silver Lining" in his story. Unbeknownst to him though, He is yet to see it.

People say eyes are the way to one's soul. Eyes reveal one's true feelings. His eyes were filled with lust as he saw her lying naked on the black silk sheets of his bed. She was lying on his bed with her breasts heaving up and down with her sharp breathing. It was a turn on. He was stunned by her gorgeousness. She was crying, her black curls scattered open and her hands clutching the black sheets to her naked body trying to cover herself as much as she could. The scene in front of him was nothing lesser than a beautiful painting. Exquisite. Wearing the condom over his manhood he was ready to claim her. With fear in her orbs she peeked at him and between her sobs she begged, "S-t-o-p" However the devil chuckled at her pathetic attempt of saving herself and her dignity. "You will enjoy it," he winked, thrusting into her in a single push. She cried, turning dead under the warmth and sweat of his muscles. She was torn completely whilst he closed his eyes, feeling every drop of her blood bathing his manhood. ...... With big dreams in her eyes Chandni has come to the city of dreams, Mumbai. Her dream was to break every restriction of the world and be free like a bird in the open blue sky.

Will she be successful in flying again with her clipped wings or she will be caged forever in the cage of the man who claims to love her madly, however his love was nothing but a curse for her. The curse of love. ... All the rights of this books is reserved by @basictales

Maeve's ability to touch others' souls can be heartbreaking and confusing, but when she connects with two murderers, it turns her world upside down. Are they still killers if they only kill monsters? What starts as a random attack on the street stopped by two strangers quickly escalates as Maeve discovers her attackers were demons. Thrusting her into their violent world, Maeve struggles to hold on to her humanity, making choices she never believed she would have to make. Disturbed but drawn to each of them. Will's bestial nature calls to her one moment and rejects her the next. While a powerful attachment to Ander's gentle soul comforts her, but every time they connect, she feels his darkness just below the surface. Will's entire life has been a war against monsters, alongside his best-friend Ander. Honor bound by duty, he is brutal, relentless, and uncompromising in his mission to protect the masses. He didn't understand how much his world would change after saving Maeve, or how she would shatter his convictions. Ander may have magical talents but in his mind, nothing will redeem him from the abomination he is. Bound by more than shed blood, Will, his adopted brother, and only friend. Together they seek and destroy aberrations that poison the world. Until Maeve touched his hand, there was nothing else but the mission. With her, Ander could see a different side of himself, a different life. This is a character driven story written from the 3 main characters POV's. It's a mature adult dark romance & contains dubious triggering situations that some might find offensive. If you want an instant, fearless heroine, Maeve won't be it. Her story is discovering who she is & what power love can bring versus kicking monsters asses. Power & money aren't the only things that make the world turn & those that wield the greatest power control destiny. If you're looking for heroes, Will & Ander are NOT it. If you're drawn to tortured villainous souls, you'll enjoy their saga.
