regrets of a dead CEO
Gideon Pierce should feel unstoppable. The promotion to CEO of CE Enterprises was everything he worked for - power, prestige, proof that he had won. Instead, he feels nothing. No pride. No joy. Just a hollow, gnawing emptiness he can't outrun. So he does what men like him always do - buries it beneath excess. Alcohol. Ego. A gleaming new car. The illusion of control. Until one reckless decision shatters everything. A drunk drive. A moment of arrogance. A silent challenge to death itself. The crash should have killed him. It didn't. Gideon crawls from the wreckage, furious at the inconvenience, convinced he's escaped with nothing worse than a ruined suit and the threat of pneumonia before his first day as CEO. But something followed him out of that river. Something unseen. Something patient. The world begins to shift. Time feels wrong. Reality slips at the edges. And Gideon can feel his place in it... loosening. What happened to him beneath the dark water? And how do you fix a mistake when the cost was your soul? Regrets of a Dead CEO is a haunting psychological descent into guilt, consequence, and the thin line between redemption and damnation - where facing your demons may be the only way to survive them... or the final step toward becoming one.Complete

Ghost World (on hiatus)
I've heard stories before, stories about people losing their loved ones, grieving, healing. And that was the end of it. Comforting tales were these, and yet they left one thing to be desired: reality. In my world, people can't move on so easily. The dead don't let us. - On hiatus
Sombre (Yeonbin)
To love you is Death. For you are grim, death himself, taker of life and yet He who can not die has fallen for you. txt Yeonbin When one is immortal and the other the harvest of souls their life's are completely opposite and yet in an odd twisted way the same.

Vicious Fangs (Mystic Bonds #1) | COMPLETED
❝ Let's find you a new home, shall we? ❞ •○• A cold Shifter General. A bloodthirsty Vampire Prince. A powerful Fae King. A mysterious protective werewolf Alpha. And a human girl. The question was - why were the strings of fate bringing them together? •○• 18 year old, sharp and vigilant Cara Arnel was one step away from slavery freedom and being sold. And being caught by the Shifter General of the Vampire Army was most certainly not a part of that plan. Nor was becoming a scullery maid or an assaulted slave in the Royal Palace instead of a blood bag or sex slave. But that was when things started to change. Tensions became high and fights broke out in the unstable supernatural world with the return of Lucifer's son: Killian after more than four centuries. Her visions started again. And a bit too many supernatural males were willing to protect her for no reason whatsoever. Turns out, Cara might not be as insignificant as she thought. Yet, she was undoubtedly human. And it seemed, she wasn't as well informed of her past as she thought. If her memories were the ones to be relied upon. At least.......the ones she had of this life. •○• Shortlisted for Wattpad India Awards 2021 (Please don't copy the story line. It's all mine. A figment of my imagination.

Mr. Mortality & the Heart Collector
The year is 1896, and Michael MacBranain is in desperate need of a job. Fortunately for him (or perhaps not-so-fortunately), the Grim Reaper is also in desperate need of an assistant! The trouble is, Michael is terribly superstitious and loathes himself for his own cowardice. But with a dark supernatural force on the loose in New York City, there may be more at stake for Michael and his employer than just job security! ~~~ A multi-part short story, serving as a prototype for the future web-serial "Mortality", the episodic adventures of the Grim Reaper and his assistant. While this story is not as well-researched or polished as I hope for the actual series to be, it does give something of an idea of what I'm going for character and story-wise. I hope you enjoy this debut~ ... (Cover art by my sibling: https://www.deviantart.com/stramberrymilkyway )Complete
The Devil's Match
Lily is a laidback slacker with a phobia for commitment...who happens to owe the devil her (nonexistent) firstborn. When the ruler of Hell comes knocking, what choice does she have but to let the devil play matchmaker? *** Lily has never been good at relationships, not that it matters to her. That is until Eve, a seductive woman claiming to be the devil's apprentice, shows up to collect a debt Lily doesn't remember owing: her firstborn child. Without a firstborn to give, and with the threat of eternal damnation at her heels, Lily finds herself on a chaotic matchmaking quest with the devil herself. Eve swears she's only playing matchmaker to collect the debt owed to her, but with each failed set-up, Lily suspects there may be something more to the devil's plan.
