Artemisia has always been different-her mind is a labyrinth of violent urges, whispers of something monstrous lurking beneath her skin. She's spent years perfecting the art of self-restraint, painting herself as an unbothered, detached girl among her friends. But inside, she's rotting, suffocating under the weight of her intrusive thoughts. Only one person keeps her tethered to reality: Monroe.

Monroe isn't like the others. He sees her. He adores her. He tells her she's perfect-even the parts she hides. His touch makes her blood run hot, his voice makes her heart twist into something unrecognizable. But Monroe has his own demons, and his love isn't soft; it's consuming, suffocating, something meant to claim her entirely.

Their relationship is an unraveling-passionate and poisonous. Monroe wants control. Artemisia wants to destroy. And somewhere in the tangled mess of obsession and desire, a single question remains: when the darkness finally takes them, who will survive?

{REWRITING N PROGRESS!! - 13/25 have been rewritten. you've been warned} ---- ---- --- ---- --- Elysian Monroe held one conviction above all others: she simply couldn't believe in love. The agony and despair it often brought seemed entirely avoidable to her. She could never comprehend why people would gamble their well-being for something so fleeting, something labeled as "love." Determined to unravel this mystery, she pursued a career as a relationship therapist, hoping to gain insight into the nature of love. Yet, what she found only reinforced her beliefs; she amassed a collection of facts that painted love as a hollow endeavor. To Elysian, love was ultimately pointless. On the other hand, Akari yearned for a different kind of freedom. For a decade, her life had revolved around the man she now sought to sever ties with-the father of her child. Exhausted from the emotional toll of their relationship, she found that her sole focus should be on her daughter. At least, that's what she had convinced herself. But Akari couldn't quite decipher Elysian, and this enigma only drew her in further. As she interacted with Elysian, her curiosity began to deepen, compelling her to explore the layers of the woman sitting across from her-Elysian Monroe.

Underworld - The SurReal side by fantasydreamer_lover
71 parts Complete Mature
What happens when deepest desires become one's way of life? Behind the darkness lies a world that one isn't familiar with or so they think. A fantasy.... That's what it looks like.... But one would not be able to guess the reason behind its existence. The line that exists between the two worlds slowly disappears when the rules and secrets lose their purpose. FEAR, RULES and CONSEQUENCES... they make this world. What happens when the flow that exists in this world gets disrupted by a commoner who walks into it just for fun? What happens when the same person meets the one person they were not supposed to? Some things are meant to be untouched. Some secrets are meant to be in the dark. Some people are meant to be unseen. 💯Author's note💯: This story is purely based on creativity and imagination. Although the details hold reality to them, the story does not promote the activities or incidents that occur. Please do remember that it's only for entertainment purposes and do not encourage any other underlying intentions. Also, the story is for mature audience. There are scenes that are recommended for age groups above 18 but I would suggest above 21 to be ideal. This is mainly because the understanding and reasoning for such scenes require mature thought process. So, I hope you understand and respect that. But if you still want to go ahead, then I would be glad to welcome you guys to read it. But please don't leave hate because of the mature scenes. Thank you.

This story is for the helpless romantics who know that behind hate there is a need for love, that behind a sweet smile there are thousands of tears being held back, and that behind a perfectly ornamamented family there are cracks awaiting to be ripped. @thee.officialbook

The man keeps visiting Maggie over the years. And when Margaret turns sixteen their father gives them a gift that will change their life for the better. Chp. 4 Preview: She was able to see what the paper had on it immediately after taking it from the shelf, and it made her heart immediately drop. Her blood sugar fell, and her face became pale, feeling dizzy. Her heart began racing as she saw me staring at her. The drawing she just found was a realistic depiction of myself smiling at the person who saw it. Unlike myself, who felt joy and inspiration from seeing father draw me this, mother was scared witless. Her legs became jelly, her body was paralyzed. All she could do was stare at the drawing, knowing that no one could have drawn this except an adult. And she knew I did not talk to any adults- or did I? Now she couldn't be too sure. This picture was from someone who knew how I looked, even getting the dimples on my cheeks and small birthmark on the side of my neck. It was someone that had to know me very well.

"I know you're a virgin but have you never been touched?" He asked, sliding his other hand down onto her leg. "What makes you say that?" Kat breathed, bracing her hands on the counter. "You react like someone who's never felt another's touch," Nex whispered, slipping his thumb under the band of her shorts. "So, have you not?" Kat opened her mouth to speak but stopped when his hand slid up from her leg, gliding up her stomach and stopping just below her breast. "Not even here?" He asked, following the curve of her breast with one finger, not touching, staying just below as he dragged it back and forth. "What about here?" He asked, sliding his hand down from her ribs to the bottom of her shorts then around to her butt, fingers nearly grazing it as he inched them up, under her pajamas. "I can say with certainty, never here," he said, lowering his other hand under the waistband of her shorts, touching the top of her underwear. "No, you've definitely never felt that before. I can hear your heart racing, I can feel your breathing, I can smell your body responding like it's never experienced these sensations before," he whispered, sliding a finger just underneath the band.
