Set in Texas, 1991, Ethel is a young women who lives in the deep southland and has a father who was a beloved pastor. Though the light shines bright at church, there is darkness to come in ethel's story. As she grows up she starts to lose faith in religion, and goes out chasing boys and living her own life, but everything will take a dark turn for the worst.
*NOTE*: this whole story is loosely based on the songs and whole storyline of the album preacher's daughter by Ethel Cain, some of it might be true and some of it might be my writing. If you want to know the full Ethel Cain lore, I recommend YouTube videos explaining it more in depth!

I thought I could trust the vampires around me. But the lies seem endless. I thought I could believe my family had my back. But the secrets seem constant. The demons from my past and the ones in my future will always shadow my life. Always there to remind me that I am not worthy of anything more than I am given. But maybe there might be hope for me yet. It seems impossible, but all I have to do is protect those I love. If I don't, I'll have only my demons for company. Forced to flee London, Roman struggles with what lies ahead of him. Permanently returning to his ancestral home was never on his agenda, not when the past lurks around every corner. His father has goals, even though Roman wants no part of the plan. Determined to get his way, Lewis lays down a serious threat, leaving Roman to question his father's motives. Backed into a corner, Roman can see everything collapsing around him. The demons are taking hold of him, whispering that it is only inevitable that he will be forced into a situation that is far from what he wants. All Roman has to do is figure out what his father is up to, get those he loves to somewhere far away from his ancestral home, and defeat the demons in his mind. The plan for the future is set but there is just one problem that pops up, determined to make Roman suffer all over again.

(READ ALL BEFORE STARTING BOOK) This is unedited. After the death of a 24 year old girl she's reborn, but the world around her seems different. Not only does she have an entirely different family, she sees... dead people. (And maybe more!) Her family claimed she was crazy and a liar for saying she could see ghosts. It was a disgrace to their family and the family name. So, she was ordered to keep quiet about it. She couldn't say a word about her occurrences to anyone. Maybe she is crazy, but the events that unfold when she meets a group of "demons" help explain why she is who she is. All she had to do was find an abandoned crypt in the middle of the woods.

The Summoning (Sleep Token FanFiction)
Making a deal with the God of Sleep wasn't exactly on my bingo card, but neither was getting caught up in a sacrificial ritual. The four men in masks saved me only to bring me to their own church of worship, telling me I can't go home because of the debt I owe. But a pact made long ago with the God and the one they call Vessel has me questioning my trust in them, especially when the standoff-ish Vessel of Sleep, the leader of the group, seems to know something I don't. The only way to learn the truth is to delve deeper into their lives, digging up my own buried past along with it... This is a slow burn romance mystery. Warning ⚠️: talk of suicide, murder, self harm and abuse along with sexual content. I also use swear words occasionally Word count: 85,661 Sequel: TelomeresComplete
