From the age of three, Eleanor's life has been overshadowed by a dark presence that only she can see. Born into a world devoid of warmth and love, she was raised by a distant nanny in a cold, sterile mansion, where the only constant in her life was the shadow in the mirror-a twisted figure that whispered terrible secrets in her ear. As the years passed, the shadow became more than just a figment of her imagination; it became her only companion, growing bolder and more insidious with each passing day.

Now, at the brink of adolescence, Eleanor is slowly losing her grip on reality. The lines between what is real and what is imagined blur as the voices in her head grow louder, more demanding. They tell her things she doesn't want to hear, things she can't unhear-whispers of violence and blood, of destruction and death. The shadow urges her to obey, to embrace the darkness that has consumed her life. And with each passing day, the urge to act on these terrible impulses becomes harder to resist.

Trapped in a nightmare she cannot escape, Eleanor must confront the terrifying reality of her own mind. Is she losing herself to madness, or is something far darker at play? As the voices drive her closer to the edge, Eleanor faces an impossible choice: fight against the darkness within or surrender to it entirely, with devastating consequences for everyone around her.

In "The Watcher in the Shadows," witness the harrowing descent of a young girl into the depths of schizophrenia, where the boundaries between sanity and insanity dissolve, and the true horror lies not in what she sees, but in what she might do.

Cupid's Match | Wattpad Books Edition

62 parts Complete

He's mythologically hot, a little bit wicked, almost 100% immortal. And he'll hit you right in the heart . . . --- Lila Black doesn't believe in matchmaking, let alone soul mates. So why is she constantly being hassled by the Cupids Matchmaking Service? But this gilded, cherub-bedecked dating agency isn't exactly what it seems . . . and it's about to turn Lila's entire world upside down. It turns out that Cupids Matchmaking is the real deal. As in, it's run by actual cupids―who don't look at all like they do in the paintings―and they have a serious problem with Lila's "match." Because this guy shouldn't be in the system. He shouldn't have a match. And while he's irresistibly hot, he's also incredibly dangerous. Because Lila's true love match is Cupid. The original bad boy of love. And he wants her. Now Lila's once-normal teenaged world has exploded into a mythological nightmare overrun by crime-lord sirens, wrathful cupid hit men, magic arrows that cause no end of trouble, and a mischievous, not-so-angelic love god she can't seem to stop herself from falling for . . .
