Darkness washes over me like a sluggish wave, caressing my soul in its hands. Negative energy runs through my veins, making me feel different, like I'm someone else, or someone else is inside me. My back aches with pain, the muscles throbbing to the rhythm of my heartbeat. A pair of shaded wings hide my presence. My skin turns pale and my eyes turn black. This is me. This is the side of me that no one knows. This is Ataraxia.

The End & The Beginning
Oops! I accidentally summoned a demon! When a crazy man threatens her family if she doesn't kill the man holding them all hostage, Eve comes up with her own plan to keep her family safe. What she doesn't expect is that her sacrifice is only the beginning. Update: This began as a #WITWContest challenge, but became a mild obsession as I fell in love with it. It's still a one-shot but is now a not-so-short short-story with all the answers to the questions you had when reading that first chapter. How did she get there? Where did he take her? And so much more! All of my stories feature LGBTQ+ characters: in this novel the MC and demons are all pansexual, all demons/angels are intersex (closest definition possible since they're not human), and much of the supporting cast is also LGBTQ+.

The Burning Desire Within
~I felt it, the burning desire that lingered inside me. i couldn't control it, I felt my wings become tattered and change to black, I felt my red eyes darken, my hair becoming a deep reddish black. I felt my canine teeth extend, long black claws forced from my fingers where my nails used to be, a long slithering black tail had protruded from behind, the black horns that punched through the skin at the top sides of my forehead. I saw my entire skin was black. I wanted to control it, to force it back, to hide it, but I didn't want to. It had once again taken control of me, my body, my mind. Pushing my conscious to the furthest of my mind where it was clouded by the darkness that was currently exposed.~ An angel, named SIlver Ember, is shunned by all of angel society except by a select few. Born with the colors of crimson red eyes and hair with a bronze colored skin tone, is looked at as an abomination. She lives a somewhat normal life with the exception of a horrible nightmare that haunts her dreams since she was a child until she hears a strange voice inside her mind. A voice as deadly as the plague itself. While trying to figure out what's wrong with her she is suddenly pulled into spending time with Bracen, the prince of angels. She also meets a beautiful and charming merman, named Leomaris, that would make any female's heart skip a beat. She has no idea what's happening to her or what she's becoming until she has an interesting discussion with her mother. Is Silver a special angel or not even one at all? Just because she has wings means nothing. Silver has quite the battle while she struggles with love, being accepted, and control of herself.Complete
Blood
Blood binds. Blood betrays. Blood remembers. She's living an ordinary life - lectures, late shifts, and trying to keep her head above water - until the night everything changes. A stranger in the glass. Whispers she can't explain. Dreams dripping in crimson. Drawn into a shadowed world where nothing is as it seems, she's pulled from routine into a maze of haunted whispers, forbidden attraction, and ancient rituals she doesn't understand. Each step uncovers more of a legacy she never knew she carried - a bloodline tied to power, darkness, and a dangerous bargain she never agreed to. Now, as her hunger grows and her heart tangles with the very creature who may destroy her, she'll face the ultimate question: fight the darkness that claims her... or surrender to the blood calling her home. Happy reading.....🥰🥰🥰Complete
