| THE ONLY SERIAL KILLER SURVIVOR RESIDES IN ATLIN |

A newspaper heading. A hospital bill. A noose and seven knives in evidence.

A girl (barely) left.


Dimitri Bardot had never known an easy life. From angry foster homes to apathetic orphanages, Dimitri soon learned that if she was to survive, she'd have to do it alone.

Three years into her career as a police officer, Dimitri was asked on one of the biggest cases her tiny station had ever seen. Panic. Convulsing fear. Bloody brutality. The killer brought all three to their town, keeping every officer awake for hours, sending detectives to chase a ghost in the dark.

She never expected the violence would find her. Hanging captive, the noose unyielding as it gripped her neck, a pool of her own blood tormenting reflections of horror-filled eyes.

But she also wasn't expecting to survive it.

Months pass. Scar tissue begins to form, ever so slowly. A Selection is announced. Dimitri is convinced to apply, where she is whisked away to the castle, yanked from everything familiar, hiding her many scars with long sleeves and silence.

But the killer isn't finished with her yet. Even with people standing behind her, including her entire small town police force behind one face, Dimitri fears that when it comes down to it, she'll be facing him... alone.

(Yandere Emperor x reader) Upon a near-death experience, you were running for your life from a killer who you rejected on top of a bridge only for it to collapse beneath the two of you, transporting you both into another world filled with a medieval fantasy fan's dream. Magic, horses, knights, royalty, nobles, and even mythical creatures! A world you would have never perceived as possible unless through fiction. Upon you and your killer's entrance, you both were greeted with the presence of an old emperor and a young prince-one being cautious, and another being curious. They immediately arrest your killer and took him away to the imperial prison and sentenced him to the gallows as a potential dangerous threat to the empire's safety. The others are wary of your presence and hope you are not like him. Most were curious about what kind of person you are whereas others did not take your appearance kindly. Among those who are curious is a handsome young prince whose eyes finally light up after years of mediocrity. Throughout the years, the people of this planet of Valtoria have been plagued with a dark king who is terrorizing the people of the planet and it is up to the prophesied Saintess who appears from another world to save everyone. You, on the other hand, would much prefer to go home... (I don't own any pictures used; cover is from ENA. Inspired by Empress of Another World and A Capable Maid.).

"How do you feel now, Morgan?" She says, more pointing something out than asking a question. She grabs hold of my wrists and tightens them. If I could see properly I could swear I see them turn purple. "I could beat you to the bone, right here, right now, till you die from your injuries. But, I won't. You will die. Maybe not today, maybe not in a month, but you will." Well, obviously I'm going to die. Humans don't live forever. "Wonder why?" "No, and I really don't care." She answers anyway. "Because we have the power, the people, and the weapons to do it. Face it, you're defenseless against us." I feel some blood flooding my mouth, so I, being a perfectly nice person, spit it in her face. That doesn't faze her at all. "I have the strength and intelligence, something you clearly don't have. Whatever y'all do to me, it won't break me. I will put up a hell of a fight before losing. I will fight, and I will win." I turn over and look at her fellow companions. "Even if I die doing it." "Is that a risk you're willing to take?" ____________________________________ 17 year old Morgan Peters is an average girl living life.
