Underworld - The SurReal side
What happens when deepest desires become one's way of life? Behind the darkness lies a world that one isn't familiar with or so they think. A fantasy.... That's what it looks like.... But one would not be able to guess the reason behind its existence. The line that exists between the two worlds slowly disappears when the rules and secrets lose their purpose. FEAR, RULES and CONSEQUENCES... they make this world. What happens when the flow that exists in this world gets disrupted by a commoner who walks into it just for fun? What happens when the same person meets the one person they were not supposed to? Some things are meant to be untouched. Some secrets are meant to be in the dark. Some people are meant to be unseen. 💯Author's note💯: This story is purely based on creativity and imagination. Although the details hold reality to them, the story does not promote the activities or incidents that occur. Please do remember that it's only for entertainment purposes and do not encourage any other underlying intentions. Also, the story is for mature audience. There are scenes that are recommended for age groups above 18 but I would suggest above 21 to be ideal. This is mainly because the understanding and reasoning for such scenes require mature thought process. So, I hope you understand and respect that. But if you still want to go ahead, then I would be glad to welcome you guys to read it. But please don't leave hate because of the mature scenes. Thank you.Complete
