What corrupts an innocent man? What drives him to corruption? What leads him to sin? What are the conditions that make him subject to and undergo this change? And what type of society produces such individuals?

Miroslav, a kind-hearted, and exceptionally talented young college student, dives into the somber and murky suburbs of Svyatnadomagrad, a gloomy and anarchic urbanized city consumed by greed and hedonism, to attend university and pursue higher education. 

Originally from a small conservative rural town, Miroslav is haunted by his thoughts on conformity and individuality, and struggles living life as an individual within the concrete jungle, a very unfamiliar environment. As he tries to adapt to campus life and living with only himself, along with the overwhelming desolation and misery he faces, he is pulled straight into a maelstrom of mischief and poorly-made decisions, which further supplement his inner turmoil. He finds himself vulnerable to and easily tempted by the demons that lurk within the depressing slums of Svyatnadomagrad. 

A dark and tragic story about a promising student's roller coaster of a journey to find answers to questions that had always troubled him: "Who am I? What does it mean to live? Is life worth living?"

***

Mira is a passion project of mine. Heavily inspired by classic titles such as Fyodor Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment, Albert Camus' The Stranger, and Dazai Osamu's No Longer Human, it explores a world from the point of view of a man who is emotionally detached from the rest of humanity and the world altogether.

***

I will try my best to release at least 2 new chapters per quarter of the year. I struggle with words and grammar; school is also another thing that affects how often I am able to write, alongside other side projects.

The Way Love Changes You; Book One: Love's Firsts by redisle_love
45 parts Complete Mature
Love can feel empowering. Love can be deadly. It can be the greatest thing to ever happen. It can be the biggest mistake that can't be reversed. It can feel like a dream come true. It can feel like a nightmare that you can't wake up from. Love changes people in many ways, from mild to severe, whether it's beneficial or detrimental in anybody's life, no matter if you're lesbian, gay, straight, bisexual, pansexual, or a person who just loves people without a label. How does love change you? ******* It's like your basic high school love story, except it's with adults in their early-mid 20s, and they're either still in college or have graduated from college and have jobs. It's a modern slice of life narrative novel about lesbians trying to find true love or wanting to get back into the love game. Five of these lovely characters share their own little tales of how love changes them first go, or their first time in forever! Their perspectives on love as it takes effect either get sensual, dramatic, or to the extent of a slow burn, as they also deal with life's obstacles along the way and share a part in each other's stories. There are ups and downs as their own stories go along, and it all gets more suspenseful towards the end where problems unfortunately arise. Will things get better or worse from here for these lovestruck lesbians as the story goes on? [Content/Trigger Warnings- the main warnings are scenes of sexual activity, and suicidal talk/attempt, along with mentions of said attempt. Everything else is listed inside the book! Please read the list before reading the book!] [Word count: +140,000 words...I write a lot, but enjoy anyway!]

"She's right! She's right! I don't cut in the right spot." My hold tightens on my wrist. The red blood oozes out of my wrist. I slide up and grab my bag and run out of the bathroom. I don't care if people can see the blood I just want to get out. I race for the doors and shove through people. I earn a lot of glares and glances that read "weirdo." I ignore and push. I run to my house and lock myself in my bathroom. I don't bother closing the front door cause I don't care if people come in to kill me. I grab my razor and cut deep cuts into my arm and wrists falling into a pool of my own blood. β€’ β€’ β€’ Evangeline has a great life. Friends? Check! Good grades? Check! Loving family? Check! But what if she has secrets that nobody knows of? What if the only thing she can trust is her secret diary? What if slowly but surly she's dying inside? How can an innocent twelve year old deal with these problems? Will she keep on facing these problem till the day she breaks. Her school burns down forcing her into a different school to meet different people and she has to fit into a different lifestyle as well. Meet Evangeline. Now at 17 years of age in a new high school. Not all girls anymore. No uniform. Meet Drake. Your classic bad-boy. He just moved to Saint Abigail high school. He is assigned partners with the quiet, calm, unnoticed Evangeline. As time progresses he finds that she isn't as happy on the inside as she is on the outside. Can he save her? Or is it too late? β€’ β€’ β€’ Some rude language. Depression and cutting. Don't say I didn't warn you. Okay, I wrote this at the start of this year (may 2016) and I had very poor writing skills. This book hasn't been edited and the whole idea is cliche so I wouldn't recommend you read it but I'm not stopping you, either. Read at your own risk. β€’ β€’ β€’ Copyright Β© 2017 by -moonlust.

A young man with a mystery had been enrolled in a top school. After a life full of pain, and darkness held deeper down, he would have to come to terms with the monster he was. He had pushed through it all, but instead of leaving his demons behind, he only drowned himself with them in the end. Almost as if a water balloon was being filled, he let everything pile up. It was only a matter of time till he couldn't hold anymore, and popped. He would be tested, to see whether he would surpass his darkness and rise to rule with the others. Or left for dead, unable to control himself to the point of self-destruction. All he needed was a supporting hand, or so he thought, but when that hand came to him, he ended up rejecting it unwillingly. Pushing himself darker as his past consumes him once again. Can he finally break his own mold? Can he break the molds of others for the better? Could he possibly change the world around him once and for all? Or will history repeat itself as he drags down everyone with him once again... A lost mind in a powerful body, with a dark background, a short fuse, and a deep secret. With a heart of black and a brain of gold. As you read, you will learn about the world around him, what makes him so special, and will find out how he may have A Darkness Within...

Power is all that matters in this world, those who are starved of it are at the bottom of the hierarchy, but then there are those who bathe in it. Being born with a golden spoon in her mouth, Valeria has been accustomed to having people at her feet. When certain events intervene with her trust in her family, Valeria begins to notice things the press failed to. As more and more clues emerge from the shadows, as more people become apart of this mess, Valeria makes it her mission to get to the bottom of all the lies she's grew up with. Secrets. Deception. Illusions. Would Valeria be able to push past the truth that her family was feeding her or will she herself take down anyone who gets in her way? -------------------------- This is book 1 in the SERPENTS' series.This book contains extreme themes that may not be suitable for specific audiences, I've warned you. The love interest is violent, and the stereotypical Made Man, meaning this book will have non-consensual relationships, where the male lead is quite literally the incarnation of the devil himself.

In which I fall in love with my brother's best friend. ***** "Don't pretend like you don't feel anything." His voice is low, sending shivers down my spine. "What do you mean?" "You know damn well what I mean." "I don't know what you're talking about." I pretend to ignore him, flipping some pages in my book. "Come on. I have all these assignments waiting. Aren't you supposed to teach me tonight?" "It depends on what you want me to teach." He smirks, his voice sounding even more dangerous. ***** I thought that my brother was the most popular guy in school, but as soon as I step into my university life, I realize how wrong I was. Meet Vaughn Cooper, his best friend. The guy is the epitome of every girl's dream. Godlike handsome. The quarterback. He's got the looks, and he's got the brain. Come on, he's got the scholarship to one of the most prestigious universities in the country, while I have just barely passed the entrance examination after long years of struggle during high school. How could a guy who worked that hard and deserves nothing more but adoration be labeled as a bad boy? Yeah, the answer is simple. The moment we lock eyes, I realize something as I stare into those piercing, amber eyes. He's not every girl's dream. He's every girl's nightmare. In my case, MY nightmare. Calm down, heart. Our story hasn't even started. Β© 2020 Anya Jayvyn. All Rights Reserved. (Content warning: This book has descriptive sexual content, explicit language, and triggering themes)
