She stood atop the building, trying to decide if she was to listen to the words of Lyndon that still rang in her head.
"That's the bloodstain of the previous suicide. They all start with diffrent problems, but all end with the same result. What makes you think you're so special?" The wind blew across her face, and put her off balance. She stumbled, and fell.

RED jeon jungkook lowercase intended bxsjjk__ All Rights Reserved Prologue: his eyes were red. they were hunger filled and thirsty for what laid ahead of him; me. another moment passed and he just stood there, staring. gazing yet glaring at the same time. i didn't know whether to smile, frown, cry, or scream. all i could do was stand, and wait. two long strides was all it took for him to be standing right in front of me. his body pressing up against mine. his breath brushing over my face. his presence engulfing me until i didn't feel like a person anymore, but merely a small atom in a space filled of matter. "y/n." his voice sooths me. it lingers in the very air we breathe. "jungkook." without looking down at me, he lifts my wounded arm, "you're bleeding." i thought for a short period of time about how he should just kill me. leave me for dead and devour me until i'm nothing but a corpse. instead, he unwraps my homemade bandage and leaves a kiss on the cut.

Mortal
I looked down the side of the building. Should I do this? I thought stepping a little farther towards safety. What have I got to lose? No one loves me, I should just stop being a waste of air. I stepped to the very edge of the building. Come on. I couldn't bring myself to just step off. My heart raced, my hair was drenched with sweat. Just do it. I stepped off, sending myself hurtling towards the pavement.Complete
Elemental | KTH | ✔️
"Aren't Vampires and Fairies allowed to be friends?" I asked. Tae nodded, "of course they can be. But romantically, no. It's inevitable that the Vampire will end up feeding on the Fairy" I rose an eyebrow, "oh really?" He smirked slightly, "oh please, you can't tell me that having my mouth near your neck doesn't turn you on, remember I can feel everything you can. I feel the blood rushing around your body, each time I graze my teeth along your skin" -♕- || WARNING - MATURE AND SENSITIVE CONTENT, STRONG LANGUAGE ||Complete
Fate | Lisrene |
"You forgot? Right?" I asked, more like whispery. I am really trying my best not to ask, but it suddenly came out without me realizing it. "It's our 100th day today, Bae." I don't intend on looking back up where she is, since I don't want to expect more, to see the reaction and was really trying my best to avoid her gaze. She didn't respond, She must've been so surprise. So, from that, I straightly and directly looked up and see what she's up to. Unfortunately, it was a wrong move. I saw it. I saw how her reaction change. From a relax one to a surprise one. You see, eyes can't lie. "N- No. No. It's just that- - - - " "It's okay." I tried to sound okay. I even smiled to assure her. But, you can't just feel okay, when you know, at any minute my tears might fall. When she did not respond, I kept quiet and continued eating. It's tiring when you know, you put effort to all this and yet you can feel from that person was the opposite expressions of what you expected. Expectations really isn't good at all. "Are you okay?" She was about to touch me but my body acted on its own, I move backward. Seeing her this close and that pity look in her eyes makes my heart breaks and offended even more. "We don't really talk now, why are you curious now?" I can't help myself but answer in sarcasm. This setting is really tiring and obviously new to me. I can't recognize and get a hold of myself, and any moment now I might burst out, right now, right here. I don't even really care now if the camera is actually recording us. I felt the need to go somewhere. I need space to breathe. I need to walk away from her now because I know when it hurts , I can't control my feelings let alone my stupid self. "Excuse me! I need to use the restroom." She nodded without tearing her eyes off me. And, that's my que to walk away. No turning back this time. It may look disrespectful but I can't pretend that everything is okay and it doesn't hurts me at all.Complete

Bring Glory(Us) Life
God's eye shone bright in a clear blue sky, casting warm light upon the earth, nurturing the blooming life of spring. The scents of new flowers impregnated the moist air, birds flew in the sky, people smiled and laughed. It truly was a glorious day to die. The boy with the sad gray eyes stared down at the ground, far, far below, his short dark hair blown back by the wind. His bare toes curled nervously over the edge of the building, knocking tiny bits of stone down, down, down ten stories of brick walls and dusty windows to the empty pavement below. The streets were empty in this part of town where aspiring artists set up shop in abandoned warehouses and old factories. No one would stop him here.Complete
Bird Wings
Wren's life is about to change forever - but not how she expects it to. Kidnapped on her wedding day, she finds herself trapped in a mountain cave, unable to return home with no company outside of the inhuman creature that took her. *** "Wait, Wren! Not that way!" It was darker here and panic limited her vision, but she could see it reaching for her; its wings like two huge looming shadows behind it. "Get away! Don't touch me! No, let me go!" She shrieked. She screamed in earnest as a hand took hold of her arm, and then even more when her own hand reached for something to hang onto and grasped at empty air. She had been scrambling towards a sudden drop! The hands hauled her back, but she still struggled. She didn't want to look at it, and she still wasn't sure she wouldn't rather take her chances with the open air instead. "Stop it, I'm not going to hurt you! You'll hit your head on the rock or something. Wren, please!" It knew her name. Somehow it knew her. She was going to die! "Let me go! Stop touching me!" She was sitting on the rocky floor now with her back against an uneven wall, and it was trying to pin her down and hold her still. She kept her eyes turned away and struggled helplessly, but it was no use. It was strong like a human man too, and she couldn't keep it off of her. The wings had moved until they curved around them both and shut out a lot of the light. Its face was so near hers that she could feel its breath brushing against her skin. "Please just look at me for a second. Just look. I'm not going to hurt you." One of the hands grabbed her chin and forced her head to turn, and then she was looking straight into a pair of dark brown eyes. It had a human face too. She had been expecting something monstrous or ghastly, and the surprise made her falter for a moment. He looked young, with a bad haircut and an earnest expression on his face. "I'll let go of you, okay? Just don't lunge around like that anymore, you'll get hurt." He whispered.Complete
I'd Lose My Wolf For You || Wolfblood (Robyn x Katrina)
"You've gotta go now, come on, please." she was begging now, the frantic edge to her voice undeniable. Even without Robyn's wolf hearing, the drumming of boots outside getting closer and closer was impossible to ignore. Despite her heart being against it, she heaved open the window, logic telling her the truth, that letting go was the only way to ensure her safety, but why did letting go have to be so painful? Thumping louder and louder in her chest, like the boots on the stairs, her heart proved this, as it ached with longing, for her and Robyn to remain together. "You can do a wolf thing and land safely, right?" she asked, already knowing the answer but wanting to savour every word with Robyn as if it was her last, and the bitter reality was that it truly could be. "Yeah, I'll be fine." Robyn replied quietly, panting, adrenaline breaking down the emotionless expression she always tried to maintain and revealing how vulnerable she really was in that moment. Turning towards the window, she prepared to take the leap; a leap towards freedom and safety, but also a leap of loss, the loss of her alpha. "I don't want to leave you!" she cried, whirling around from the window like it burned her, eyes glimmering with tears that threatened to fall. "You are my alpha now," she paused, pure anguish dripping from her words as she stared into Katrina's eyes, cool blue to contrast and watery to match Robyn's. Katrina saw something snap within Robyn, something falling away from her expression, and finally she was seeing her, really seeing her, and she knew, as the words began flowing, that Robyn was only telling the truth. "If you wanted me to, I would stay." she said loudly. Katrina wanted to protest, but could only shake her head in disbelief. "I would lose my wolf for you!" The air was heavy with tension and intent. Words spun in her head, unable to fit together to form sentences, and something almost tangible sparked in the air between them, they just didn't know what.Complete
