I have always been fascinated by the thin line between reality and illusion, the unsettling feeling of knowing something is wrong but not being able to grasp what. The Light in Front of Me is a story born from that idea-a psychological thriller where memories blur, reality shifts, and the truth is never what it seems.

Elise wakes up in a place she doesn't recognize, surrounded by water, with only a distant light guiding her forward. But as she walks, shadows stir, whispers call her name, and familiar images flash before her eyes-memories she can't quite piece together. Every step forward feels like a trap, every clue leads her deeper into something she's not ready to face.

This is a story about chasing the truth, even when the truth is terrifying. A journey through the unknown, where fear is not just in the dark but in the light that reveals it all.

Shattered Reality by cloudynate
10 parts Ongoing Mature
Shattered Reality is a haunting, twisted romance where love, lies, and secrets collide-and the line between sanity and madness is more fragile than ever. Lena Dawson doesn't remember the night her parents died. The crash, the screams, the chaos-it all fades into a fog of uncertainty. Now, she's trapped in an asylum, a place where nothing feels real. The doctors say she's making progress, but the more she tries to piece together her past, the more the fragments slip through her fingers. When she meets Elias, a fellow patient with eyes dark enough to hide a thousand secrets, something stirs within her. There's a connection between them, unspoken but undeniable. As Lena grows closer to Elias, she begins to sense that he's hiding something-something that could shatter everything she thought she knew about herself, the accident, and the truth of her own fractured mind. But Elias has a plan. He whispers to Lena about the hospital-their twisted, controlling ways, and the dark secrets lurking behind the sterile walls. He makes her question the doctors, the treatment, and the very reality she's been told to accept. Could the hospital, not the accident, be the true cause of her trauma? Is it the institution that has warped her mind, manipulating her into believing the wrong truths? Elias tells her that only he can help her uncover the hidden truths of the asylum-and her past. In a place where trust is a luxury and reality is ever-shifting, Lena must decide: Can she trust Elias, the one person who makes her feel alive again? Or is he the key to a truth too dark to face? And as the lines between love and deception blur, Lena's fragile grip on reality is pushed to its breaking point. Shattered Reality is a gripping, psychological thriller where every truth feels like a lie, and every lie could be the key to Lena's salvation-or her undoing.

Meanwhile, Jacob grapples with his family's mounting pressure and his own conflicted feelings, struggling to reconcile his love for Maria with the harsh realities of their lives.

*COMPLETED* Annalise(Ann) had a simple life. A loving family, and a roof over her head. But when that is taken away, when the king and his men destroy her village and take her life away. She is thrown into a life of servitude to the king. But What happens when the king develops a deep desire for her? Will she fall in love with the merciless King? 𝑬𝒙𝒄𝒆𝒓𝒑𝒕: I hear the king get up from his seat and start walking over to me. I see his shoes come into my line of vision. My senses are clouded by his strong scent of cedarwood. I refuse to look up at him. He gives off an aura that is dark and intimidating. My eyes begin to swell with tears at the thought that I will end up like the man before me. "Look at me," he commands in a deep voice. I refuse. He commands again this time more cynical, "Look. at. me!" His voice booms off the walls, echoing in the room. I flinch at the tone but still refuse. Then suddenly, he roughly raised my chin. My eyes meet his cold blue ones. His eyes seem to soften for a moment then quickly return to their cold state. He muttered something under his breath that I didn't catch. He lets go of my chin and walks around, scanning me with his eyes. "What am I to do with you?" He mutters to himself. After a few moments, he is back in front of me. He smirks, "I will make you my personal chambermaid." CONTINUE THE STORY INSIDE...
