"Cursed by vengeance, bound by fate"

*************

"In shadows' embrace, grudges entwine,
A tale of vengeance, an oath malign.
Two souls adrift, in darkness they're bound,
Seeking redemption, a fate unbound.

Whispers of old wounds, revenge takes its hold,
In the labyrinth of grudges, stories unfold.
A dance of darkness, a symphony of pain,
In the web of hatred, hearts break and strain.

Forgiveness withheld, destinies entwined,
In the shadows of vengeance, souls confined.
Through echoes of spite, their paths converge,
In 'The Entangled Grudge,' a tale they urge."

***************

Amidst the shadowy corridors of power and betrayal, where two formidable mafia families once reigned supreme, a love story unfolds-one that defies time, life, and death itself.

Jade Collins, the fierce heiress of the Collins empire, crosses paths with Tristen Frost, a vengeful spirit from the rival Frost clan. What begins as an eerie encounter slowly evolves into something far more dangerous-an entanglement of souls bound by secrets, wrath, and a love neither of them asked for.

 As twisted loyalties and buried truths rise to the surface, the lines between love and hatred blur.

**Sneak Peek**

Jade says, eyes narrowing, voice dripping with defiance "You think you can control me, Tristen? You're nothing to me."

Tristen with a dark smile curling on his lips, his voice a low whisper in her ear  "Perhaps. But your past... and your heart-both belong to me now, Jade. Whether you like it or not."

Jade steps back, her eyes flashing with fury "You don't get to decide that for me. I'll break free of your chains, even if it means burning this whole world down."

Tristen speaks, his eyes gleaming with a mixture of admiration and menace "Then burn it. I'll watch, and when it's all gone, I'll still be here-waiting."

*************

Can vengeance ever sleep when hearts refuse to forget? Will their hearts heal a history of bloodshed-or will they be doomed to repeat it?

The Grean Household by uninstalledproxy402
61 parts Complete Mature
"It was a mistake..." She told her mother, folding her hands into each other. "Marrying him..." Her mother said nothing, she simply sat there as her only daughter stood across from her, on the verge of collapsing from bruised ribs and cracked shins. "Mom." She wanted to reach out, softly tap her aging mother. Though that was the restriction of her life. The binding stereotype that she was gentle and slow to anger. In reality, what wanted to explode from her ribs was a scream of an animal, and the tears of repressed rage and fear. She wanted to throw her body onto the floor, but the thought made her damaged body ache more. There was no response from her mother. The deafening silence reminded her of her own quietness as her husband shouted at her, his fists bloody. He told her that she was only a tool for his amusement and a money-whore for her indigent family. She was nothing else but a tool for both parties. And she was starting to believe him. --------------------- Sarah Johnsen's life spirals from the normal gritty resilient fight to a serene wonderland. On the outside, she's married to a kind family with untold riches, but on the inside, her husband is the devil himself. Forcefully married at 18, Sarah was forced to kill her own dreams of becoming a doctor in order to bind her poor family to the rich bastards of Glendale by marrying their youngest; Oliver Grean. Their arrangement had the ability to brew the largest timespan of misery any of them has ever known. From lost toddlers to paid staged kidnappings, the binding of the two families, the Johnsen's and the Grean's created a mixture of chaos, confusion, sorrow, fear, grief, and dangerous rage. And there seems to be no haven to escape to. Or is there?

"I call this one pain. And this lil one right here under his wing is suffering." "No offense, but...who the hell would wanna be reminded of pain and Suffering? If I was going to get something etched into my skin forever, I'd want something that would bring me joy." His grin bemused her. As if he expected her to contradict his moral logic. "True that, shorty. And I agree, no doubt. But who's to say my birds don't bring me joy?" Dumbfounded, Jett lifted her eyes from the silhouetted birds up to meet his tender gaze, stumped on how to answer his question.

BlackBiirds is the intertwining story of two characters-who's deepest pains and struggles happen to be caused by the other person. Ironically, surrounding situations, dangerous rivals, and even their own family members cause these two to become tangled in ways they can't escape from. * * * BLACKBiiRDS is the rewritten, reworked 2.0 version of its former draft: Souled Out.

*COMPLETED* My head bowed in a heavy mannor, not in respect, but in trepidation. I discern his unwavering gaze over my ill silhouette. "Look at me." I opened my eyes, though it made no difference. Black is still black, all I am left with are my four senses. He will kill me if I don't look. He will kill me if I do. He will look into my sightless eyes and see my futile existence isn't worth living. He will kill me, and he will be doing the pack a justice by it. He growls a low, throaty snarl to warn me about disobeying an alpha. There will be consequences, we both know that. His lingering growls let me know he is not going to allow me to contravene his word. I steadily inch my head upwards, visibly shaking everywhere else. Maybe he won't notice my depthless eyes from across the gazebo. My life depends on it.
