A short story about a haunted painting and it's haunting backstory.  A young woman by the name of Elisse Morgan in the Victorian era lived happily until her brother was taken from her. She lost herself to insanity, causing her to be put in an insane asylum. All her deeds followed her till the day she died, causing her portrait to be haunted by her.

Trigger Warning: Mentions of suicide, murder, abuse, blood.

A/N: This isn't my first story ever, but it is one of my longer ones. It is only one chapter due to it's shortness, but I will be publishing other stories hopefully soon. If anyone has any recommendations, I will gladly take them.

Power is all that matters in this world, those who are starved of it are at the bottom of the hierarchy, but then there are those who bathe in it. Being born with a golden spoon in her mouth, Valeria has been accustomed to having people at her feet. When certain events intervene with her trust in her family, Valeria begins to notice things the press failed to. As more and more clues emerge from the shadows, as more people become apart of this mess, Valeria makes it her mission to get to the bottom of all the lies she's grew up with. Secrets. Deception. Illusions. Would Valeria be able to push past the truth that her family was feeding her or will she herself take down anyone who gets in her way? -------------------------- This is book 1 in the SERPENTS' series.This book contains extreme themes that may not be suitable for specific audiences, I've warned you. The love interest is violent, and the stereotypical Made Man, meaning this book will have non-consensual relationships, where the male lead is quite literally the incarnation of the devil himself.

Thirteen years later and I have little to no memory of who had taken me. Ever since then my father has been severely overprotective and never lets me out of his sight. Now that I'm somewhat on my own everything starts to change. When I finish high school and start attending New York University my life takes a turn, for better and for worse.

She was the light in our lives, until one day we lost her again. Thirteen years later and we still mourn the loss of our sweetheart, but we found her once, we will do it again. I am the head of the Russian mafia, or a professor at NYU depending who you ask. One day I raise my head to look around at the sea of students and my eyes lock on a familiar pair of ocean blue irises. β˜… π‡π€π˜πƒπ„π 𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐍𝐄𝐋𝐋 β˜… I'm a heartless killer and offer no apologies for it. As the head of the Russian mafia along with being the CEO to a multibillion dollar company, my life is nothing but darkness. During the day I'm an office man, at night my knife slashes through the necks of anyone I can get my hands on. Killing is my outlet, ever since I lost her. It helps me keep my anger in check. I've never stopped looking for her. We've come close multiple times, but each time came out unsuccessful. As I put a bullet in the head of my ex-guard, Alex comes rushing into the room, and the look on his face says it all. He found her. Start: July 4th End: ///

Warning: DARK ROMANCE Story contains detailed mature scenes possessing dubious consent not recommended for age group below 18 years old. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! Prologue Shadows engulfed his angelic features oozing devilish intentions. It wasn't until he took a step towards her did the gravity of situation descended upon and even then she couldn't do anything but shake in fear. She knew making a run for it won't do a thing, calling was not an option and if she screamed...she opened her mouth to shrill but a meek plea came out. Her body's lack of response terrified her, tears gathered in her orbs with horrible anticipation. With his each step nearer she gripped the frame of her window tighter hoping to keep her balance. It took him three steps to be inches away from her body. He slowly took his suit jacket off, making himself comfortable as he amusingly watched her shaken face. She was so horror-stricken to even look at his face. She gulped as his hand cupped her neck in a gentle grip, guiding her eyes to his. His eyes slipped from the hold of her eyes to her lips in a second. She grew self conscious all over again. His heated gaze on her lips was unwavering. In the moment of bewilderment and growing self awareness her tongue unconsciously wiped her lips wet and it was all it took for him to descent on her lips. Description Had it been upto him he'd have broken her down to pieces and never put her togather, instead, he let her build herself, he watched her collapse and stand, die and live, float and drown all the while playing her body like a putty in his hand. Her husband had never been gentle, his ways was one of his kind. He read her like a book and used her spells against her. She was vividly aware of what she was getting herself into but nothing could prepare her for the don who brought everyone on his feet and she was no exception. How would she survive his ways or even would she?

Evelyn, a successful yet reclusive businesswoman, joins a group trek into the wilderness despite her disdain for people. When they stumble upon a decayed chapel hidden in the woods, strange things begin to happen. Unseen forces prey on their darkest fears and secrets, driving the group toward madness. As paranoia builds and people begin to disappear, Evelyn must uncover the truth about the chapel's sinister power-before it consumes them all. TW: Warning: This novel contains graphic depictions of violence, extreme gore, themes of suicide, rape, and sex. It also explores sensitive topics related to religion that may be disturbing to some readers. Please take heed: this is a work of fiction, and all characters and places are entirely imagined. If you dare to continue past this point, be prepared to face the kind of terror that will make you reconsider why you ever thought diving into a book by yours truly was a good idea. After all, I'm not responsible for the sleepless nights and psychological scarring you may encounter-consider this your friendly warning! Proceed at your own risk.
