Psychological Horror and Slow-burn Dark Romance. 18+
---------------------------
It's been five years since that fateful Friday night. I remember it like it was yesterday.
The night I was kidnapped.
I was held against my will. Tortured. Starved. Broken apart, piece by piece. All in the name of "curing" me.
He didn't just steal my freedom. He rewrote the rules of pain, of fear - and then, somehow, of love.
If you'd told me I'd fall for the man who ruined my life, I would've laughed in your face. But reality doesn't always follow logic.
He's given me this journal and I'm going to write my story.
This is my truth. My confession. My war cry.
Because what he did to me deserves to be known.

And then... there's his. It's not cruel. It's not loud. It's something far more dangerous - quiet, calculated, all-consuming. He was my best friend's brother. The man I was never supposed to notice. He watched from the shadows, memorizing me without ever needing a single word. I never really knew his name... but he knew everything about me. My fears. My patterns. My dreams. Even the parts I hadn't yet discovered myself. He's always been there, just a step behind-waiting, watching, wanting. And now, he's no longer waiting. He calls it love. I don't know what to call it, only that it pulls me in like gravity - unavoidable, inescapable. There's safety in his arms, yet danger in his silence. Gentleness in his touch, yet fire in his gaze. And somewhere in the tension between fear and longing, I find myself unraveling. Because the scariest part of being wanted like this... Is realizing you might want them back.Complete
Escape
I quickly grabbed my keys and left the apartment to head towards my car. It was already dark outside, but it wasn't cold, I didn't need a jacket. I got in my car, and put the key in the ignition, when I looked in the rear view mirror and saw a pair of brown eyes. My eyes went wide, but I couldn't even blink before he laced his fingers around my throat from behind. A scream wanted to leave my lips, but he put his other hand over my mouth to muffle it. His lips ghosted over my ear as he whispered: "I wouldn't do that if I were you, Lucy."

He barely believed in living. Most days were spent in silence - a numb, gray existence made of sleepless nights, empty mornings, and a constant ache he couldn't shake. People called him cold. Emotionless. Maybe they were right. Then he met Viara. She was a stranger at a convenience store on a rainy night - two dollars short and smiling like she had no reason to be. Ren gave her the money. She gave him something far more dangerous: a reason to feel again. What started as curiosity became obsession. Every glance, every word, every secret he uncovered about her pulled him deeper. Soon, Ren wasn't just watching from the shadows - he was protecting her, perfecting himself for her, and removing anyone who dared to get in the way. Love made him better. Love made him worse. Because when you put her before you, there's nothing you won't do. Even if it means blood on your hands. Even if she never asked for any of it. Chapters Will Be Added Overtime.

"Shh, shh, now baby-girl, it's alright, you're safe, don't cry" he soothed, moving closer to me. "N-Noah, I w-want to go home," I sobbed, feeling weak from my inability to talk without stuttering. A gasp left my parted lips as his hand forcefully connected with my cheek, "You are home, so I don't want to hear that crap from you, okay?" shaking, I looked down at my feet, his gaze too menacing to hold. "I said, do you understand" he spit through clenched teeth, "y-yes, I'm sorry" I whispered, a new wave of tears making their appearance. "Good girl, now I need you to keep being a good girl, okay?" nodding, my eyes met his dark ones. His form towered over me, making me feel small and irrelevant. "Words, Embry!" He demanded as I stuttered out a quiet yes. I studied him cautiously as he walked towards the far end of the room, shuffling through drawers before stalking back towards me and crouching down. I sucked in a breath as I saw the knife in his hand, his face held a mischievous grin as it glinted in the light. "Now baby-girl, you see, as much as I hate to, you need to be punished, do you know why?" Warning!

I'll go crazy without you, you cannot leave me, I won't allow you to." And she shook her head, a laugh-filled with disbelief escaping her lips as she struggled to unbind herself from the chains.

Stockholm Syndrome
Naomi Monet was a normal American girl living in residential New York. Her life was average; she had a boyfriend, family, dog, was attending university- when it suddenly wasn't. She was plucked from the streets and forced into a completely different life, being trafficked by a multi-million dollar company. And her captor? A morally grey man who goes by the name Brandon, tasked to keep her healthy, happy, and trapped. Will she continue to fight against his control over her? Or succumb to a mental decay which seems to slowly be convincing her that he 'cares for and protects' her? ________________________________________________ "So you're my handler, but are you also the one who kidnapped me?" He drew his gaze away from mine, back to his computer screen and nodded. "Yes." My heart sank. I was hopeful that maybe he wasn't the one who committed the act, but was only assigned to me after the fact. That way I could hold on to the hope that he's not an entire monster. Now I can see that he is, all the way down to the core. I swallowed my fear as I recalled the sensations that came over me when his hand wrapped around my mouth. A moment I'll never ever forget. "U-uhm why, why me?" I stuttered as I feared he'd snap at me for all my questions, but instead he closed his laptop and sat back in his chair. "Because you're pretty."Complete
The Devil's Crybaby
Eliza Labelle had survived a shooting that should have killed her, but surviving turned out to be the beginning of her problems rather than the end. After waking in a hospital bed with a bullet wound and a government determined to bury the incident, she discovered that the man responsible had vanished behind the walls of a place most people only whispered about. While her family tried to push her back into her privileged city life, strange events and growing unease made it impossible for her to forget what happened. When she was suddenly taken from everything she knew and dragged beyond the safety of the world she had grown up in, Eliza found herself trapped in a brutal land ruled by old loyalties, hidden power structures, and people who lived by laws far different from those of the city. As she struggled to survive among dangerous strangers, she uncovered secrets that connected powerful families, forbidden territories, and a world that had been carefully hidden from ordinary people. The deeper she was pulled into that world, the harder it became to separate friend from enemy, truth from manipulation, and survival from sacrifice. What began as a fight to return home slowly became a journey that forced her to confront the darkest parts of human nature, the cost of loyalty, and the reality that some doors could never be closed once they were opened.

You're my solace, my salvation. And I'll do whatever it takes to make you happy. Even if I have to break you first, I'll piece you back together with my own hands. Even if it costs me everything... even if it costs me my life." -------------------- "Run, Akshaya. Run!" I whispered to myself, my breath ragged, legs trembling as I pushed harder. "If you stop now, it's over. You'll never be the same again. They all betrayed you. He betrayed you. He's been playing with you-your feelings, your trust. Don't look back. Just go!" I reached the bus station, my chest heaving. Without thinking, I stumbled into the first bus I saw, collapsing into a seat as it started moving. My head fell against the window, the weight of everything crushing me. Fear and exhaustion pulled me into restless sleep. But it didn't last long. A sudden halt jolted me awake. My eyes fluttered open, heart pounding as I looked around. The bus was empty. A chill crawled down my spine. Something wasn't right. And then I saw him. He stepped onto the bus, his dark eyes locking onto mine immediately. A slow, knowing smirk played on his lips. "Enjoy your little escape, wildcat?" His voice was calm, mocking, as he moved closer. My heart raced, and I pressed myself against the seat. "Stay away from me," I said, trying to keep my voice steady. His smirk deepened, his steps deliberate. "Stay away? After all this effort, you think I'll let you go?" He stopped just inches from me, towering over me. "You don't get it, do you? You can run all you want, but you'll never escape me.
