It's late. Very late. 

Sweat oozes from her skin as she strolls through the dark alleyway. 

She's weird. Unusual.

Traumatised by her husband's death, she struggles to ignore his continuous hammering memories that float through her mind. 

His smile. His laugh. 

The strong wind blows her hair as she suddenly wishes she tied it up this morning. She's been wishing she had done a lot of things differently, lately. 

Like not stabbing her husband in the neck. 
But some things you just can't resist, can you? It's not her fault she enjoys the soft feeling of a sharp knife slowly sinking into the skin of the flesh, now is it?

This book portrays the in depth storyline-  the perception of the lifestyle of our protagonist, Fallon Hanson. With elements of death, super nature, as well as gothic realisation, we unveil the story arc regarding this narcissistic socialite, who urges to make amends for her depression, by destroying the lives of those who destroyed hers. With lack of inner peace, our protagonist believes she'll receive it by taking pleasure in seeking revenge for the wrongdoings of others, through violence, brutality and savagery.  The central conflict revolves around the criminal and vicious acts taken within this book, and the continuous friction between Fallon Hanson, and her husband, Damari Richards who serves as our second main protagonist. Fallon believes the stakes to receive the inner tranquillity she deeply craves results in the harmful gestures taken towards others, as her morals and beliefs oppose natural ethnic codes in society, due to starvation of primary socialisation.

23 parts Complete Mature
A deconstruction of dark romance set within a psychological thriller, wrapped in an erotic horror story, inside an urban fantasy setting, infused with sci-fi elements, and sprinkled with plenty of nerdiness. I can't guarantee you'll like it, but you definitely haven't read anything like it before. Fair warning - the erotic horror elements are pretty hard. ------ Samantha is ambitious, determined, and strong - a habitual overachiever. But happy? Never. She returns to her hometown and her old best friend, hoping for a weekend of respite, perhaps even a fresh start. Instead, she finds herself thrown into mortal danger, left hovering one breath from death. But survival is only the beginning. Saved by a man whose intentions are anything but clear, Samantha undergoes a procedure far worse than dying, losing herself, layer by agonizing layer. She awakens in the Bright Room reborn - a mystery, both to her captor and herself. To reclaim her life, she must confront impossible questions. Is freedom worth becoming a monster? Can she exact vengeance on the one who saved her? And does she truly want to? For you if you love: Strong, complex women who never back down; moral ambiguity; intense psychological drama; power struggles; trauma explored deeply; twisted relationships that make typical love/hate dynamics look tame. Not for you if: You're young or easily triggered - this story doesn't look away when bad things happen. Note: the cover is temporary, working on a proper one (though similar). ----------- If you are reading this story on any other platform other than Wattpad you are very likely to be at risk of a malware attack.

(not edited) This is the book I never even admired. It was more like a journal for me-just ranting and never meant to be published. I only uploaded it so that my friend could read it, and I never imagined people would actually love it. So, it's nothing like Whispered Vows-that's the book I poured my heart and soul into, dedicating 5-6 months completely. So please, don't judge me by this book πŸ˜‚!! It was written when I was a teen and remained just a draft for almost a year from 2022 to 2024.

Formerly known as 'His Angel' Trigger warnings on chapters. ~ "Harmony" it was her name; no longer a scream but a simple word. She lifted her head, and saw him standing in front of her, hanging over and blocking the warm sun. She continued to cry, gripping the dog so tight she was probably fucking hurting her. "I can't take it anymore," she said, her lip quivering, her tongue tasting salty. Waiting for the inevitable, "I can't do it any longer." She took a deep, shaky breath. "Mony-" He leaned down gently, sitting in the grass across from her, trying to catch a glimpse of her face hidden in shame. How could he ever kill her? He couldn't even imagine cutting a hair on her head. "Harmony-" she looked at him with bright red, puffy eyes. "Will you come with me?" So much hesitation on her face, the sight of it fucking killed him. But, she reached out a shaky hand, slipping it into his. ~ Harmony finds her trusting nature doesn't always do her good, and the biggest mistake she ever made was walking home with a man who insisted they were taking a shortcut. She wakes up, cold, tired and terrified, chained to a wall in a stranger's basement. Unbeknownst to her, she's now in the hands of someone else so much worse. She finds herself determined to escape his grip in any way possible, even if it means doing what he wants and pretending to like it. And as more time goes on, Max seems to be further taken by her, doing everything to try and mend bridges to get her to stay. But, she can't become complacent; that's how people die. She's found herself deep into the underbelly of life others don't know, where laws are not the same, where people are not the same. Surrounded by a pack of gun runners, thieves and murderers, she starts to question if she could ever go back to her old life. When does the puppetry start being the truth? ~ Not everything is always green and blue.
