Dreams are quite interesting. Every night when we fall asleep, we are destined to imagine a world that doesn't exist. Visions filled with fears and desires. But what if each dream we had was the same. Endless cycles of repetition, building, slowly, onto the story for years. Minutes turn in hours. At which point in our lives will the dream finish? Where the story is complete and there is no longer addition. When our fears stop chasing us and our dreams come true. No one knows the answer, until Loretta. Every night, without fail, she falls slowly into a peaceful sleep just to be thrown into a nightmare. She runs away as her fear chases her. Until one night, she's caught, tangled in the web or her shadows. What will happen now that he has caught her? When will her these visions stop? What does this shadow look like behind the black smoke?

In Shadows of Night
I woke to a sudden breeze invading the warmth from the heavy blanket that caressed my skin. Here, alone with my thoughts, the still, calm quiet in the atmosphere is almost painful. I feel suffocated in the clingy, static air. In quiet, still moments like these, I can almost feel Him. I don't know who "Him" is, but I can feel his presence. It's almost calming, especially on fearful, anxiety fueled nights. Usually, he was the strongest when I had a nightmare. The nightmares weren't as common now, but, right after everything happened, I was having them every night. I'd wake up and swear I was drenched in blood, my eyes and lips sticky, my nose filled with the smell of iron and fuel. After everything, that's when Him first came. From there, he just never left. I can usually sense when Him is near. Today, though, his presence is stronger. I can almost feel Him next to me, weighing down the mattress. Some nights, I roll over and imagine how he looks, envision his smile or the sparkle in his eyes. He's never there and I'm left clutching to the thought that he exists, staring into empty air. Tonight, though, I swear I can reach out and touch him. Extending my hand gently, I sweep my hand out into the darkness and meet an inexplicable warmth. A scream rips from my lungs as hands cover my face and two icy blue eyes stare back at me, daring me to speak again. A soft cloth caressed my nose and mouth before I felt myself fade into bed.

The Blood Order
"Are you coming to bed firefly?" He says to me laying his hands over my waist joining me in looking over the city. "I want to look out for a little longer if that is alright?" I mumble hoping that he heard me anyways, I wasn't ready to walk into that bedroom, and I don't think I ever would be. "Of course, I'll be getting ready for bed, come in whenever you are ready." He says confidently and walks away leaving my waist cold something for which I am grateful. Especially when my mind burns with other more dangerous thoughts. The warmth that forever lingers in the air, never burning the skin, but always reminding about what is around us. I force air into my lungs feeling the unexpected warmth fill me. He stands in the room watching me even though he said he was getting ready for bed. He is worried about me, about me jumping. I have contemplated it I will admit, but he would stop me before I fell even two feet. I was stuck, and no one could save me. Not even myself, my fucking weak self. His presence is demanding no matter where we are, but right now I could sense everything about him, and I try to suppress the unwanted feelings that curl right under my skin. "Firefly? About done?" He calls out and I release my hand from the guard rail not realizing that as I looked at the lights that covered the shining city with the falling fire in the background that my subconscious was thinking about how nice it would be... how relieving it would be... to just fall. True freedom. I take a step back and wrap my hands together turning around to a fully clothed unchanged man and nod once. I could see the fear in his eyes that I would, he knows if he gave me the chance... I wasn't ready for this, but I had to survive. No matter what.

Bleeding Love (+18)
Trailer: https://tinyurl.com/bleeding-love ---------------- I felt him step closer to me, both hands holding my arms. Viktor was a gentleman, he was not going to do more, nor did I know if I wanted more, but I leaned into him and pressed my face to his chest. The hard, firm wall of him welcomed me, and I couldn't help sob. "I keep feeling like I will never be whole... I will never be sane..." His grip grew tighter on my arms, my hands rested on his chest as I looked up. His eyes held storms, and I was caught in the middle of them. "I am sorry," I whispered. "I don't want to look so weak..." There were no more words left for me to say, his lips found mine, and I melted into his cold embrace. His tongue met mine and I moaned as his hands slid down from my waist to my lower body. My robe fell, and I lifted my hands to wrap around his neck, pulling his face to me as he sank his fingers into my flesh, and I felt him lift me in a swift move, taking me to the bed. - Viktor Volkov never thought his short visit to the US would take more than three days, but after finding a woman who had lost her memories, he couldn't help feeling drawn to her in ways he had not felt for over centuries. Dawn woke up from a nightmare into another one. She had lost all her memories, and she didn't know who to trust. But the man who had his cold eyes on her seemed to be the only one who made her feel alive.
The Anatomy Of Us
- She never expected her life to turn this way. A woman devoted to saving lives, a doctor who had sacrificed sleep, sanity, and sometimes even her own happiness, just to keep her patients alive. Every day was a battle against death itself-and often, she lost. Each failure left scars no one could see. And then came Chase. A man draped in darkness, a mafia whose hands were stained with blood. He was everything she despised-ruthless, merciless, a predator in a world where she had vowed to be a healer. Falling in love with someone like him was the last thing she ever wanted. Yet the heart is a traitor. Against her will, against her reason, it beat faster whenever he was near. But fate played cruel games. For the very patients she fought desperately to save, the bodies brought in broken and bleeding... were victims of the very man she loved. His bullets created the wounds she stitched, his violence the cause of the shadows beneath her tired eyes. She asked herself a thousand times- How could she love a monster? And yet, every time she looked at him, she found the answer buried in the silence between them: Because sometimes, the heart chooses even when the soul refuses.![Her Premonition [COMPLETED]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/208295954-256-k856937.jpg)
