Do you ever have those nights where the mood lighting is perfect, the music gets you in the feels, and you just let your mind wander? I tend to around midnight, or in the very early hours of the morning. Each chapter in the story was written during a night I let my mind wander off to whatever topics it wanted. However, in letting my mind do that, I transform not only my thoughts, but my surroundings into a story format and scene so it's easier for the reader to understand what I see, think, and hear.
Every part of this "book" is my thoughts so I assume not everyone will agree with me since it's constructed around my opinions. Though I don't say that to turn you off from reading, I just wanted to say that I don't mean to offend anyone. Please keep the community peaceful and respectful.
This is simply my mind's journeys at midnight that offer me peace at mind the next day and help keep me grounded to Earth. A step back from everyday life, into reality, to see things for what they truly are. A personal reflection during the notorious witching hour.

Our Conscious Fields; What is living?
Slow paced narrative set in a world awakened to panpsychism and innate abilities following the fall and rise of society. A gentle approach to world building with a bit of humor, romanticism, and just enough hints of drama without going into it. When everyone writes about how it could all go wrong or what happens after it does; who wants to read about what happens if it just goes right for once? Still conflict and drama but, the hard work is already done. Now you just get to see a glimpse of what happens in a reality where it all works out. Work in progress - Inspired by Ready Players?; One Chaotic Answer This will be a slower update than Ready Players? but hopefully be more full in edits and depth. Comments and suggestions considered, otherwise please enjoy as this book and story unfolds. Thank you
The Blood Order
"Are you coming to bed firefly?" He says to me laying his hands over my waist joining me in looking over the city. "I want to look out for a little longer if that is alright?" I mumble hoping that he heard me anyways, I wasn't ready to walk into that bedroom, and I don't think I ever would be. "Of course, I'll be getting ready for bed, come in whenever you are ready." He says confidently and walks away leaving my waist cold something for which I am grateful. Especially when my mind burns with other more dangerous thoughts. The warmth that forever lingers in the air, never burning the skin, but always reminding about what is around us. I force air into my lungs feeling the unexpected warmth fill me. He stands in the room watching me even though he said he was getting ready for bed. He is worried about me, about me jumping. I have contemplated it I will admit, but he would stop me before I fell even two feet. I was stuck, and no one could save me. Not even myself, my fucking weak self. His presence is demanding no matter where we are, but right now I could sense everything about him, and I try to suppress the unwanted feelings that curl right under my skin. "Firefly? About done?" He calls out and I release my hand from the guard rail not realizing that as I looked at the lights that covered the shining city with the falling fire in the background that my subconscious was thinking about how nice it would be... how relieving it would be... to just fall. True freedom. I take a step back and wrap my hands together turning around to a fully clothed unchanged man and nod once. I could see the fear in his eyes that I would, he knows if he gave me the chance... I wasn't ready for this, but I had to survive. No matter what.

His Possession {Major editing}
"I don't want to go with you" I whispered... Big mistake. I screamed as he slammed me down to the ground hard and held my neck, he straddled my hips hovering over me and growled in my ear making me whimper. "You are mine do you understand? Mine. And I will have you to myself which means you are going to join me and my pack" he said and I shook my head "j-just reject me and none of this has to happen" I whispered and he growled sliding his other hand down my stomach. "Don't test me mate" he said and I gasped as he grabbed me "you belong to me now so like I said before. Go home and pack your bags" he said and I just shook my head "I don't want to leave my pack-" "To-fucking-bad" he said "I let you go twice. I'm not letting you go again" he growled and I looked up at him nervously shaking my head. "Do as I say or I'll kill your pack. One. By. One" he said putting his lips to my ear "no" I whimpered and he looked at me. "I-I'll do it" I whispered and he nodded letting me go.Complete
Captured By A Demon
I finally escaped the factory, they kidnapped me from my college. Today is my birthday, and I had planned for it but nothing helped, only calming me down for the moment. A scream echoed out in the silent starry sky, my body freezing... They were looking for me, I just knew it. Again, I ran and jumping over the fence to the property, muscles burning, my breathing short. I look behind me, not seeing the light of the school anymore. I slow down, holding my breath again. Looking around, only trees and bugs surround me. I slowly sank to my knees, gripping the grass in between my fingers, to keep my breathing calm. Tears springing to my eyes and brushing the tears away, slowly getting back to normal. Suddenly, I felt someone behind me. I could feel its strength and power surround me, turning around to see a dark figure behind me. Glowing blue eyes stared at me, seeing it slowly walk toward me. My breathing becoming short again, a panic attack was on the verge. A hand was now on my shoulder and another on my cold cheek, making me look into his eyes, "Let me help you..." He whispered. Rubbing his thumb against my cheek, I slowly nod my head, when a pain began to form in my chest. I knew it was coming. I quickly get away, crawling a couple feet away. "Get away!" I yelled. My skin turning white and the pain erupting inside of me, feeling it try to escape, and I know if I let it. It will hurt this man. Suddenly, he was there in my view. Blue eyes staring at me, and then his lips were on my own. Gasping as I felt the pain beginning to disappear from inside me. Eyes drooping and my body relaxing against his. Soon, the kiss ended and I was empty. My eyes closing. "Don't worry, I will keep you safe..."Complete
Into Another World {Twisted Wonderland x F!Reader}
This book is not complete, and will not be finished. It's trash, beware. Please read Exultant instead, you can find it on my page. You've always been a happy girl, kind of careless, and a bit clumsy. But what happens when you appear in a whole different universe? Will you be strong enough to stay at the Night Raven College with other magicians? Read to find out~ Twisted Wonderland does not belong to me, and the art in this book does not as well. They belong to their original artists. The plot will be somewhat mixed with my own plot and the real one you can see in the game. This is a various x reader, so there'll be more endings you can choose from. Please do not spoil in the comments, it ruins the reader's experience. If you do, at least write spoiler alert first. If you do not, I will delete the comment. I'd like to say that this is a wholehearted book, I wanna keep it as wholesome as possible. I want this book to be an escape from whatever is bothering you, and I just wanna say that this is a book to chill with. Even if you're about to fall asleep, driving in a car, or even through some tough mornings. I hope that you enjoy this book and relax. Anyway, have fun reading my favorite reader, or Y/n to be exact! Let's get this started!Complete

Dream, my little mate
"Stop fucking hiding from me," He grabbed me by my arm and brought me closer to him, then he whispered in my ear "I've waited too long, so once I find you I won't hold back!" He nipped at my ear and my breath caught in my throat, then he pushed me to the nearest tree. "You've got yourself into quite a bit of trouble, mate." We locked eyes for a split second and the next he was kissing me hungrily. __________________________________________ I see him in my dreams every night and I feel the pull grow with each time we meet, but I have to go against my instincts. The fire that burned for him would have to burn out. I have to leave him exactly where we started... in my head. I didn't have it in me to go against her and sadly, he had to suffer for that very reason. I wanted to give him a chance, but rejecting what I wanted was quickly becoming first nature to me. It wasn't meant to be; I wasn't meant to be happy and I had grown to accept that, but could he? __________________________________________ PLEASE READ AUTHORS NOTE INSIDE!!

Fear
Psychological Horror and Slow-burn Dark Romance. 18+ --------------------------- It's been five years since that fateful Friday night. I remember it like it was yesterday. The night I was kidnapped. I was held against my will. Tortured. Starved. Broken apart, piece by piece. All in the name of "curing" me. He didn't just steal my freedom. He rewrote the rules of pain, of fear - and then, somehow, of love. If you'd told me I'd fall for the man who ruined my life, I would've laughed in your face. But reality doesn't always follow logic. He's given me this journal and I'm going to write my story. This is my truth. My confession. My war cry. Because what he did to me deserves to be known. --------------------------- THIS BOOK CONTAINS TRAUMATIC CONTENT!
