✨ The Decepted Self ✨
🖋️ by Lekshmi A.H
"Sometimes I forget who I am.
Then the house reminds me."

Ava Hayes once had everything - fame, love, and a future carved in ink and ambition. But after a devastating loss, the words disappeared. So did the light inside her.

Now, desperate to heal, she and Lucas move into a forgotten house on the edge of nowhere. He says it's a fresh start.

But the house remembers.
The rooms shift. Time loops.
And a journal appears - one that tells her story... before she's even lived it.

As reality fractures and Ava spirals into a maze of guilt, grief, and ghosts, only Lucas keeps her grounded.

But the deeper she falls, the more one question haunts her:
What if the person she trusts most... was never real?

🕯️ A psychological thriller where memory is fragile, the past is a lie, and love might be the most dangerous illusion of all.All Rights Reserved

The House That Whispers by beingillusionist

It wasn't supposed to be a rescue. It wasn't even supposed to be real. A drunken dare. A reckless chase. A twisted game. Harry and his friends entered the house with one thought-to take what wasn't theirs. But the moment they crossed the threshold, the game turned against them. The doors locked. The walls shifted. Their desires became chains, their laughter swallowed by silence. At first, they thought it was a man-a monster lurking in the dark, toying with them. But the deeper they went, the more the truth clawed at their sanity. The house was alive. And it wanted them to suffer. Time unraveled. Lust turned to regret. Hunger turned to madness. Their mistakes tightened like a noose, and soon, Harry found himself losing more than just his way. He was losing them. And the house was still watching. Because no one leaves until it is done with them. The House That Whispers

The Letters Between Us by kcuf625

And when love blooms between a ghost and a girl who's lost everything - the truth becomes dangerous, and goodbyes... heartbreaking.

Then return-wrong. Sketches appear in his notebook that he doesn't remember drawing. Some are dated tomorrow. Some are signed with his name. Time loops. Friends glitch. Mirrors lie. And every thread he pulls leads to a single, terrifying truth: This isn't just happening to him. It's using him. And it's been waiting for him to notice. (I will try to upload chapters everyday,and if i ever miss...then dont worry....that would be my fault...so you will get the chapter which i missed including the new one... pardon me if this happens)
