death dream drey dreyentanglement entanglement haunting headset horror infection midnight

Book One of the Drey entanglement! Previously 'The Game Of Tag, 'A Catalyst Key'

A bolt of lightning thrusts through the night, glowing scarlet in the shimmering window, and as I stare, it illuminates the droplets settled upon the glass...

This is how the night begins.


And it's all because of Anna Drey.
 

Her haunting starts with the dream. The running. The endless closet. The darkness. The Quakes.

And then comes the Day of Infection.

The first stage: Touch. If the Haunter touches you, you're good as dead. You can only tell that it's there by a faint outline and a blur in the wall.

The second stage: Scratch. The Touched seem normal, seem like your everyday family member. But they aren't. While some are scratched but aren't yet infected, and some are but under a humane disguise, they'll scratch you if you get close. Then the Haunter controls you, it is you. It's in your very soul.

The third stage: The Quakes. If you're infected by midnight, by Touch or by Scratch, you get the final Quake dream. If you don't, you're safe. If you get the dream, you don't wake up.

Anna Drey is in the middle of it all, and she only has one way, one day to survive.

Betray your family, join a side. But how will you know who is who?

This book is the first in the Drey Entanglement series, and the second in the Azurelon's Folly series. Directions on how to choose your timeline are in the final chapters!All Rights Reserved

Ghost Perfume | ✔ by natalisghosts

In a world where the dead linger, one girl holds the key to helping them cross over. But Rose's quiet life is shattered when four mysterious brothers arrive with a dark secret. As tensions rise and some ghosts prove more dangerous than others, the brothers only want to keep her safe. Can she trust them, or will the secrets between them be her undoing? And will she ever be able to break through their masks? **COMPLETE** My death notebook was out. I surreptitiously slid it into my backpack. He offered me the cards. "Pick a game, Rose?" "Um." They looked at me. "How about cheat?" "Never heard of it," Alexander said, collapsing to sit on the floor with his back to my bed. Gabriel sat cross-legged. "Show us," he said. I knelt to complete the circle, taking out the cards and shuffling them. Alexander snorted and snatched the cards out of my hands to shuffle them himself. "I got it, drunk girl." "I am not," I said, tugging on the cards. My fingers tangled with his. He let them go. I distributed the cards among us, my hair swinging as I leaned forward to give them their share. I tucked it behind my ears. They watched me quietly. I could hear the party outside my room, a muffled shouting beat, but we were safe in my room.

The Second Stage by benjaminburkett

A world unseen dies over and over. It shrieks at a pitch that you cannot hear. It rots with a stench that you will never quite know. It isn't a place meant for you and I, it is merely a bank for the dead and dying; a vault of visceral agony. It's function, origin and purpose are as cryptic and chilling as the vengeful spirits whose claws scratch and teeth rattle just beyond the thick, putrid mist that seeps over its endless surface. Yet, through all the horrifying and inexplicable unknowns, this place has one certainty: it doesn't take kindly to guests. Meredith Haynes fell into The Second Stage during a routine surgery she was monitoring. She scrambled through it's empty expanses and fled from the decaying demonic mockery of a human being. With good fortune and great agility for a woman her age, she escaped with both her life and sanity, a miracle should miracles exist. Anyone of sound mind would never return, and spend the rest of their days in the company of friends and nights in the company of bright lights. However, Meredith met someone she never expected to see again, someone that might remove her from the ranks of those well advised souls that would never return. Now, in the days of silence thereafter, her mind wanders back to the one thing that might convince her to return, the one thing that will convince her to return. But what Meredith doesn't yet understand, is that the Second Stage has no windows, no entrances and no exits, for it accepts you when it wishes and releases you when it's finished.

'If you are reading this then you are Blissfully Unaware of what is Creeping right behind you.'- Unknown. ************************************ "I am not afraid." She said to herself trying to calm her heartbeats. She stood right in front of the dusty glass door. Placing both her hands on it she tried to push the door. For the split of a second she saw a young lady, her hands and face covered in blood, impatiently banging on the door. The wind around her went crazy. She heard random whispers in her head. Rhea was unable to focus on anything around her but the lady. The lady was saying something but for Rhea it felt like some random lips movement. She was scared out of her wits. Then suddenly everything went dead silent. The lady vanished. The whispers and the wind stopped. But then Rhea saw light imprints of blood on the glass door under the dusty layer. ************************************ This book basically contains short horror stories of my own imagination. They may be a bit creepy and weird but that's how the book goes. These stories are short but scary. I hope you'll enjoy them. It's my first book ever so please support it.

HAUNTED - A Dark Romance by savshabang

DANTE When I first laid my eyes on her; she was only eleven, three years younger than me. She was quiet. And pure. But she was troubled, and alone. I could see it behind her eyes; the thin veil that concealed her deepest secrets, faltering every time she looked at me. I knew from that moment on that I would live for her. And she would eventually live for me, too. With or without her blessing. However, circumstances change. And that purity I once relished in; her light in contrast to my darkness, disappeared. But, don't worry my little sinner, I will haunt you. And I won't be as kind this time. EDEN I won't let you scare me. That's what I keep telling myself. And yet, I see you. In every dark corner, in every casting shadow -- I see you when I close my eyes. And I hate myself for it. But I'm older now. Wiser. You took my innocence from me, and while I hate myself for allowing you to, I hate you just that much more. But I won't let you in this time. I don't want your inferno to engulf me anymore, I want to extinguish it. **PLEASE BE WARNED** This book will contain graphic contents, including but not limited to: violence, sexual contents and sensitive subjects.

[COMPLETED: First book of the Infinite Realms series] - Do you think that this world we live in is the only one there is? That's what (Y/N) used to think too. But then her eyes were opened when she was taken into another realm. She was just living as normal teenagers do. Going to school (well online school), doing extra curricular activities, and hanging out with friends. One day, she finds out that her best friend, Catherine, is related to her celebrity crush Thomas Sangster. She thought that her world has turned upside down with this knowledge. But wait until she learned about the infinite realms. Or when she learns that she's not really of this world. She doesn't belong in this world. On the night of her sixteenth birthday, something mysterious happened to her. Sneak peek: "We should clean her wounds before she goes into the Maze," she heard someone say. Maze? What Maze? "We have no more time to clean her wounds," she heard a female voice say. "We're already behind schedule. I can only erase a few memories before we get there." (Y/N)'s eyes were dropping already and she was already falling asleep. The last thing she heard was the female saying to her, "WICKED is good."

Self proclaimed monsters (Loki x reader) by Dragonwithagirl

Disclaimer: i wrote this back in high school when i was highly mentally unstable, pulling all nighters, and over exerting myself in all sorts of ways. For you theater kids out there, I wrote a good portion of this during tech week. At no point in this story did i know what was going to happen next. There are plot holes, weird turns in the story, its a little cringy sometimes, and partway into it someone started pressuring me to follow a certain character. There are some funny moments, a little bit of smut, lovable characters. Looking back there are some moments that i really love, but if you are looking for a story that makes a lot of sense and has a strong story you are in the wrong place. This is an unstable teen writing on a whim. You've been warned. With that said go forth and be entertained~ You look down at your hands and quietly whisper to yourself, "Am I some kind of monster?" You hear beeps like someone is putting in a pin on the other side of the door before the door slowly swings open. The man named Tony stark walks into the room. "Hey kiddo, remember me?" You slightly nod your head and he comfortably sits on the couch like nothing is out of the ordinary. He sighs. "Guess not" "No, I remember. You and Mr. Rogers were at my house" "Not what I meant" You cock your head at him. What does he mean? You've never met him before that. Feel free to jump to chapter 4 if you're bored of the first one, I'm not particularly proud of the first few The character of Rosa belongs to: @mudkip2016 ‼️I do not own the avengers, only my oc's and the plot‼️ Discord server is up and running! https://discord.gg/Ncz9gdqr One shots collection: https://www.wattpad.com/story/304166080?utm_source=ios&utm_medium=link&utm_content=share_writing&wp_page=create_story_details&wp_uname=Dragonwithagirl&wp_originator=JYnjJQJJ3iw4RC2caABJMBGHPldh2QEveSfO0U9dpoiBv8VAmo2W7L32WVXyAj4jKO0mowXMwsXY0qU6d6gavchyrz36gzC54yrqesKzGlH11bvz0igscxbSTm%2FImfpU

Unforgiven Dreams ✔️ by CrayyZedd

[COMPLETED : 5|09|2016 and slowly editing ] He snapped his fingers and a red flame flourished into existence. "How did you-" "I'm a professional." He smirked, clearly enjoying this. If I got a penny for everytime I rolled my eyes at him, I would probably be a billionaire. In a limousine. With a hot wife. And a hotter girl to cheat on her with. And that too I'm straight. He flexed his palms and the flame disappeared. "With practice, even you can control your Blue Matter." I didn't say anything, just nodded. "This Blue Matter is stronger than Red Matter. It can destroy beings. Be careful with it." "Uh, so I am a DreamMaire?" "No, Sophie, you're the Dream Maker." _______________________ Sophie Hazelwood, sixteen, just makes it in the world with her confident aura and weird humour. All she wants is to be a singer and move over her past, however hard that might be. But she's not completely aware of what she's capable of. Meet Keith, new boy with a hot bod who changes her life in ways that could have never been foreseen.

Highest Ranking #21 in Fantasy - 16/8/16 Hit one kay reads - 30/7/16 Reached two kay reads - 12/9/16 ________________________ Yes, the story will be kind of normal in the beginning but stay tuned for more! :D Also, there will be some usage of foul words, and you've been warned! Kind of a short book with less chapters, perfect for a quick read. Cheers! xoxo Affi ❤️
