"abditory" is a psychological thriller that explores the intricacies of identity, perception, and the fine line between reality and imagination.


In the bustling hospital, two women find solace in each other's company. It was as if they were two sides of the same coin, each facing their own struggles and challenges. Meave, a dedicated nurse who lacks empathy and compassion, and Lola, a patient battling an unknown illness, form an unlikely bond. Despite their different personalities, they quickly discover a shared sense of sympathy and understanding.

But amidst their personal bonding, a sense of unease surrounds the two women. They start experiencing strange occurrences that they can't explain. Patients go missing, medical equipment malfunctions without reason, and eerie voices whisper in the empty corridors. Both women's grip on reality starts to slip as they question their own sanity. Both Meave and Lola began to notice a young woman wandering through the hospital corridors. She appears ethereal, her presence both comforting and mysterious. They would catch glimpses of her out of the corner of their eyes, but whenever they turned to face her, she 
vanishes without a trace.

Both of them, grappling with the truth, discover that their perception of each other has been mistaken all along and things really aren't what they seem. 

When will they discover who they are?

In the Heart of the City by bhavikajain160
22 parts Complete
The door opens and closes thirty times in five minutes, the table clutters endlessly. What's happening? Why am I being held by two officers in the corner of a counseling clinic? Is this an interrogation ground now? Shadows race past me, like mirages in a desert, faces flicker into view only to vanish the next second. The officers speak, but I can't hear them. My senses are failing me. Something inside me is taking control, and I might faint. If I wake up in a hospital, will this still be a nightmare, or something scripted? The city woke to devastation. The news spread like wildfire-Dr. Nadia, a champion for human rights, had been murdered in this very clinic. Yesterday, she voiced her fear for her life; no one listened. Now, she's gone. The press churned out articles minute by minute, TV channels broadcast live updates, and the internet roared with outrage. Police teams haven't slept. Top agents were deployed. That's how I met Inspectors Carla and Javed-while being held as both the prime suspect and the sole witness to this chaos. Dr. Nadia wasn't just a leader; she was a symbol of hope. She fought tirelessly for the oppressed, for justice, for rights the government ignored. Yet, she seemed to know her time was near. A week ago, she hinted at it but continued her fight. Yesterday, she paid the price-her life. Now, the city mourns her loss, consumed by guilt for ignoring her cries for help. The last time I saw Nadia, she was here, in this clinic. She didn't want to live. She seemed tired, desperate for respite. How does someone so adept at convincing others to hold on end up wanting to let go? Her death feels like a betrayal. She trusted us, and we failed her. I failed her. Now, it's on me to prove this was no accident-a cold-blooded murder. Or was it?

12 parts Complete Mature
The story is about two people who meet by chance and quickly form a genuine connection, despite only knowing each other for a short time. It highlights the natural progression of a budding relationship, shaped by cautiousness, vulnerability, and the willingness to take risks. The narrative centers around the protagonist, who, after meeting a woman he finds intriguing, begins to feel a deepening attachment. However, past experiences and emotional scars make him hesitant to rush into anything too soon. He doesn't want to make the same mistakes, so he takes a measured approach. Their conversations are filled with honesty, humor, and mutual respect, which only fuels his growing feelings for her. In Part One, the protagonist is unsure of whether he should act on his feelings. He carefully opens up to her, expressing his hesitations while still acknowledging his growing attraction. She, in turn, responds with a sense of maturity and understanding, offering him the space to figure out what he truly wants. Part Two shows the protagonist wrestling with his emotions, yet ultimately deciding to take a leap of faith. He realizes that while it's still early, the connection they share is worth pursuing, and he chooses to express his feelings honestly. The story concludes with him asking her out properly, feeling hopeful and open to seeing where this new chapter might lead. Overall, the story is a journey of self-reflection, growth, and learning to trust in both one's feelings and the other person. It's about striking the balance between caution and taking chances in relationships, especially when both people seem to have the same genuine intentions. It speaks to the importance of honesty, communication, and the willingness to take things one step at a time, rather than rushing into something without considering the deeper emotional impact.

Book Two of the I Bleed series. - Fay is dealing with a lot now. Knowing her past took a bigger toll than Optimus thought it would, and led her to extremes that landed her in a very special place: a mental ward. As time passes, Optimus and Charlie's visits lead to more and more suspicion on their part as far as what really happens inside those walls. And Fay isn't exactly innocent of keeping secrets. Especially when one of them involves something far more dangerous than Fay is willing to comprehend. Of course, nothing is ever as it seems, especially if it involves a gorgeous male nurse who she finds irresistible and tantalizing. Now if only she could work around two things: his position being her caretaker and the fact that her deceased father told her a while ago to "fight him". But that had been a dream, hadn't it? A product of her subconscious and imagination. She isn't so sure anymore, especially when the new world she's still attempting to absorb slams another secret onto her chest. Neither Fay or FarLust are completely prepared for what the future holds.
