The Darkness in the Light by djscloud
25 parts Complete
For over a hundred years, humanity has lived in fear of the monsters that roam the streets, lurking in the drains below. Women and their daughters hide, protected in their homes, while men take their sons through the world, teaching them the responsibilities of having a family to feed and dangers to avoid. No one leaves the home unless it's essential, and most of the world prefers it that way. Until one girl spends her days perched on her window seat, looking down at the world below and dreaming of a different life. Her eyes are always drawn to the dark, ominous drains in the street, the ones that often blink open to swallow and person whole. One day, that person is her little brother, snatched right in front of her from their arms of their father and gone forever. When a person is snatched, they never return, and life goes on without them. But she can't accept that. Breaking all the rules, all the things she's ever known, she braves the world outside her little townhouse and goes on a mission into the darkness to find her brother. Only, it's soon her that becomes the one lost to the drains. To survive she must rediscover her world, and in the process, rediscover herself. She will be reunited with old friends, gain new ones, find out deeper secrets about her past than she ever could have imagined, and learn that the world is even more corrupt than she always thought. *** This story contains sexist ideology, mention of cheating, some gruesome scenes, and a whole lot of monsters and darkness. It isn't overly mature... there isn't much explicit language or sexual scenes, but there is a bit of violence, so just keep that in mind... and despite all that negativity, ENJOY!

Kayla's life seems perfect on the outside-she's a 23-year-old college student with big dreams, a tight circle of friends, and two protective older brothers. She's always been independent, handling her own business and staying focused on her goals. But when she meets Devin, a smooth-talking guy who seems to have it all together, everything starts to change. At first, Devin is everything Kayla could want-charming, attentive, and always making her feel special. But as their relationship deepens, his true colors begin to show. Devin's charm turns to control, and his love turns into something darker. Trapped in an abusive relationship that no one knows about, Kayla finds herself isolated, scared, and unsure of how to escape. With her best friend Lena starting to notice the changes in her, and her brothers Isaiah and Jordan growing suspicious, Kayla struggles to keep her secret while searching for a way out. But leaving Devin isn't as simple as it seems. The deeper she falls into his manipulation, the harder it becomes to break free. In this short, gripping urban drama, Kayla's strength is tested as she fights to reclaim her life and rediscover her voice. Set against the backdrop of city life, "Behind Closed Doors" is a powerful story about love, control, and survival, written in raw, unfiltered Ebonics that captures the realities of living in the streets. Will Kayla find the courage to escape, or will Devin's hold on her drag her down for good?
