i wake up in the darkness of a cold, unfamiliar cellar with the distant echo of footsteps that shouldn't be there. every shadow hides a secret and every sound fills me with terror. i'm alone with no memory of how i ended up here, but one thing is certain, there's something, or someone, watching me. the walls of this ancient dwelling whisper stories of blood and pain. are they about me? every time i think i've found a way out, a familiar sensation chills my veins; an unsettling deja vu that keeps dragging me back. the more i try and understand the nature of this dark presence, the more the line between reality and madness dissolve, pulling me into a vortex of fear and despair. the tension is palpable, the darkness is an enemy, and time is a luxury i cannot afford. every corner could hide a clue to salvation, or a horror ready to consume me. my only hope? find a way out before the lurking darkness consumes me.

To Hell
She was supposed to get better. He was supposed to disappear. They were all supposed to forget. But nothing stays buried forever. Especially not the kind of secrets that leave teeth marks. In a city built on silence and sin, five broken strangers are dragged back into the orbit of a man they thought was dead. Each carries their own trauma, their own rage, their own crimes. Each one marked. Each one watched. Each one chosen. There's the therapist who weaponizes grief. The girl who survived and became the monster. The boy who turned pain into poetry-and then into war. The cult leader who doesn't believe in forgiveness. And the one with blood on her tongue and no name left to pray with. A list has surfaced. And their names are on it. Crossed out. Carved in. Waiting. This isn't a love story. It's a reckoning. A spiral into obsession, violence, memory, and manipulation. Read it only if you can handle: Therapy sessions that turn abusive. Confessions that turn deadly. Love that turns into a knife. You've been warned.Complete

I am Mr. Pink
He fell through the ceiling and landed on a bed. No name. No memory. Just a note on the door: "Do not leave. They want to kill you." The apartment is a puzzle box of cryptic instructions and forgotten technology. Hunger gnaws at him. Time bends. Loneliness begins to rot the edges of his sanity-until he discovers the masks. A boy next door. A father with secrets. A city ruled by silent kings and gold hidden in the walls. Blood in the woods. Wolves that don't stop eating. And a man who smokes a cigarette that never burns down-watching everything. The truth is buried in twelve dimensions. And something wants it to stay that way.Complete

A quiet job in a quiet town, a routine that never hurt, and a heart too careful to fall for anyone too fast. But then he walked in. The new hire. Mysterious. Impossibly attractive. He had the smile of a gentleman and the presence of a man who'd burn the world to keep your attention. He said all the right things. Held doors. Knew how to make her laugh. And when he looked at her-it felt like she was the only girl in the universe. But love, she learns, can be blinding. And not all monsters hide in shadows. Some wear suits. Some call you "baby." Some hold you like you're a prayer-then break you like a curse. Because he has secrets. Dark ones. Dangerous ones. The kind of truths that can't be buried without blood. So now the real question is... Will she uncover who he truly is-before it's too late? Can love survive when it's soaked in lies and obsession? And when she finally sees the monster behind the man... Will she run? Or will she stay?Complete
