Cursed Genesis by Bethanygamemaster

This is a full backstory for my oc Bethany never expected to wake up in Hellscape-a nightmarish realm where the sky bleeds red, the dead walk among monsters, and creatures born from humanity's darkest fears thrive. Once human, now something far worse, she finds herself cursed with vampirism, an unquenchable thirst for blood, and abilities that make her both a predator and a target. Struggling to survive in a world where the strong devour the weak, Bethany turns to her wits, ambition, and an unexpected ally-a demon named Mike, a fragment of Michael Jackson's soul twisted into something monstrous. With his guidance and the help of Reaper, a cryptic scythe-wielding figure, Bethany seeks to carve out her place in Hellscape. But something is changing. The balance between Hellscape and the living world is shifting. The once-steady flow of human summonings is dwindling, whispers of an unseen force interfering with the realm's connection to Earth grow louder, and Bethany's own insatiable hunger threatens to consume her sanity. As she delves deeper into forbidden magic, ancient horrors, and the politics of Hellscape's creatures, Bethany must decide: will she embrace the darkness and become a force to be reckoned with, or will she lose herself to the nightmare she now calls home? A dark fantasy horror tale of survival, ambition, and the monstrous truths that lurk beneath the surface of reality.

My Vengeful-Ex by AlizaJabri

I stared at the girl in the mirror. She was only a shadow of the girl I used to be. Blue eyes, void of emotions and glint, glanced back at me. My lipstick and mascara were smudged, and my blonde curls were a complete mess from when he had fisted them while he pounded inside me from behind. "Whores like you deserved to be fucked bent over the counter of a hotel restroom," Logan's last words before he left the ladies' restroom echoed in my ears. A tear trickled down my cheek as a scream fought to escape out of my mouth. I bit down on my lip to stop myself from crying out loud. He had vowed to hate me till eternity and make me pay for every single one of my sins. The thing I was unaware of was that I would start to hate myself during this journey of betrayal and vengeance. -------------------- Christina struggled to make ends meet with her mom, who was suffering from cancer.
