Silas Pinepeak is a gravedigger.
A widower forever, childless, this honest profession fits him like a glove. Silas is a skilled professional and takes great pride in finding the best grave; for a fee, in hard cash, needless to say. A life in the great outdoors, with quiet and accommodating neighbors. In short, happiness, if you want it.
That's why on a Thursday - a rainy Thursday, no less! - he finds himself in his cemetery, roving the vaults section in search of a gem to satisfy a grieving family.
However, not everything goes as planned. Nothing could prepare him for what he would see that day, which would profoundly change his life.

Under Their Control by Nyx_cyl
29 parts Ongoing
One minute, Clara was walking home. The next, she was gone. Kidnapped off the street by three strangers-Ezra, Silas, and Lucian-she wakes up in a mansion too perfect to be real. Every room is tailored to her. Every meal, every hobby, every word-they knew everything. And now they expect her to play along in their twisted version of a family. They wanted her. To them, Clara is the missing piece. The daughter they've been waiting for. The one they've been preparing for. Every room is made for her. Every rule is meant to shape her. And every smile hides something sick. Ezra. Calm, calculating, always three steps ahead. No matter how careful Clara is, he sees through her. Every lie. Every escape attempt. Every flicker of rebellion. Silas is distant and cold, but dangerous in his silence. Silas keeps his distance-but when he looks at her, it's like he sees straight through. And Lucian... Lucian's the gentle one.The one who brings her hot chocolate with extra marshmallows and brushes her hair. The one who says this is all for her own good. Lucian is soft-spoken and kind... almost like he wants her to believe this could be real. But it isn't. They don't want her freedom. They want her obedience. Her love. Her role. They call it family. She calls it a nightmare. But if Clara wants to survive, she might have to play along. Even if it means pretending to love her captors. _________________________________________ Author's Note: This is a story I've been wanting to post and now I've finally done it.

The Horned King: A Kingdom of Ash

20 parts Ongoing

Death was supposed to be the end. For Crowley, it was just the beginning. Given a second chance in a brutal new world teeming with monsters, Crowley is granted the power of a Necromancer a class he never chose and a curse he must learn to control. To survive, he must raise the dead, command spectral armies, and build a safe haven for the living. But in a world governed by a mysterious System, true power is not found in a legion of undead, but in the answer to a single, impossible question: What is the value of a soul? If he can't find the answer, he'll lose more than just his second life, he'll lose himself to the very darkness that gives him strength.
