"I wanna hide the truth, I wanna shelter you. But with the beast inside, there's nowhere we can hide. No matter what we breed, we still are made of greed-" -Imagine Dragons
Have you ever felt so ugly that you'd sacrifice your sanity?
What if you had a chance to become beautiful forever under one condition only? And that one condition would cost you your sanity...
As Audette accidentally forgets to buy her best friend, Margaret, a birthday present, everything seems to go wrong; Margaret was starting to obsess over indigo flowers and imaginary beings, and the biggest problem was that she couldn't seem get enough of her own stunning beauty. Audette decides that enough was enough, she was going to help Margaret get her sanity back.
How would she do that? Without understanding or believing what Margaret was going through?
Margaret lived off those killer indigo flowers, if she doesn't her sanity would boil and her body would take control of her actions. She had no say in this situation. Audette was her best friend, yet when she tries to help, Margaret pinned her down as a possible culprit. The final time Margaret was going to trust Audette would be the time when they visit the indigo flowers' owner -- the old lady -- for a cure.
But was there really a cure? Was there a cure for greed in human beings?

Obsession Unveiled
Damien, an average and unassuming student, walked the halls of his school like a ghost-present, but invisible. He wasn't the top of the class, nor the bottom. He didn't draw attention, and he liked it that way. Blending in gave him space. Space to watch. Space to observe. Because while the world barely noticed Damien, he noticed her. Annette. She was the only ripple in the still water of his quiet life. There was something about her-something undeniable. She was elegance wrapped in confidence, untouchable but painfully real. And to Damien, she was more than a girl. She was an obsession. A purpose. Around others, Damien maintained the perfect illusion. Calm. Collected. Just another face in the crowd. But when it came to Annette, that illusion cracked. His quiet demeanor masked something darker-something sharp. Possessive. Dominant. It wasn't just that he liked her. It wasn't even that he wanted her. He needed her. As if the universe had carved her from the very core of what he lacked. He watched her like a predator stalks prey-not out of malice, but with a deep, feral instinct to claim. He noticed everything. The rhythm of her footsteps. The tilt of her head when she was lost in thought. Every person she talked to, smiled at, laughed with. And deep inside, something twisted every time she gave her attention to anyone who wasn't him. No one suspected. How could they? Damien was forgettable by design. But behind that forgettable smile was a mind carefully weaving a future where Annette belonged to him-wholly, unquestioningly. In his thoughts, there was no version of her life that didn't revolve around him. Every passing day without her acknowledgment was a glitch in the reality he was building. He didn't just want to be close to her. He wanted to own her heart. Her mind. Her choices. Not in a way she would resist-but in a way she'd learn to love. He'd make sure of it. After all, love was just another form of control when done right.Complete![𝐔𝐧𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐜𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐫𝐞 [𝟏𝟖+]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/366735281-256-k845863.jpg)

"𝐒𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐝𝐨𝐧'𝐭 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐝𝐞𝐯𝐨𝐮𝐫." [Slow update] They say love feels like sunlight after winter. But no one warns you - sometimes, it burns. Sometimes, it scars. I never asked for obsession, for manipulation, or for love that feels like poison. He came like wildfire - raw, relentless, unapologetic. My first. My beautiful mistake. He was dangerous in the most beautiful way. Gentle with me, brutal with the world. Every moment with him was comfort laced with chaos. His love? Honey laced with venom - sweet, addicting, and lethal. He didn't cross lines. He erased them. In his madness, I mistook devotion. In cruelty, I saw protection. How do you run from someone who'd bleed to keep you breathing? He saw the cracks no one else noticed. Whispered promises in the dark. And a part of me clung to them. In his arms, the world ceased to exist. But the next storm didn't come with fire. It came in silence. He arrived like a shadow - watching, waiting, suffocating. He didn't touch me - not yet. But I felt him, like smoke in my lungs. He studied me. Then he moved. And when he did, everything changed. He didn't want to love me. He wanted to rewrite me. His silence screamed louder than words. He wanted me to destroy myself for him. Now, I'm torn between two kinds of insanity: One who would ruin the world to protect me. Another who would ruin me to make me his world. And I can't tell the difference anymore. They circle me like wolves, each calling it love. But love was never meant to feel like this. Was it? I used to believe love was a gift. Now I know - it's a gamble. A bloody one. And in this game of obsession and betrayal, I'm no longer sure who the real villain is. Because when both players would kill you for love... What does that make you?
LUNA
In the shadowy depths of the Ape King's mind, a vision stirred, born from the whispers of the Beast God. Fifty years ago, he beheld the image of a mystical creature, a kitsune with four tails, radiating an otherworldly aura. The Ape King's eyes, once dimmed by the weight of kingship, burned with an inner fire as he gazed upon the vision. This was no ordinary beast, but a divine messenger, foretold to bring salvation to a world on the brink of collapse. The prophecy spoke of a female, born with the essence of the fox, who would wield the power to heal the beast world. Her arrival would be marked by chaos and upheaval, yet she would be the only one capable of restoring balance to the realm. But what struck the Ape King as most peculiar was the notion that this female would be a shifter, a being capable of taking on both human and beast forms, a rarity in their world, where females were scarce and precious, and none possessed the ability to shift. The Ape King's mind reeled with the implications. Could it be that this prophecy was not just about saving the world, but also about rewriting the very fabric of their society? He thought of the females in their world, precious and fragile, and wondered if this prophesied one would be the key to unlocking a new era for their kind. With a heavy heart, the Ape King shared the vision with the other monarchs, the Wolf King, Hawk Queen, Tiger King, and Leopard Queen. Together, they vowed to prepare their kingdoms for the prophesied savior's arrival, unaware of when or how she would come. The fate of their world hung in the balance, and the Ape King couldn't shake the feeling that time was running out.
