I loved him before I even knew what love meant.
I watched him grow, laugh, cry... and do the unthinkable
Leila has always been the girl no one noticed.
Quiet. Invisible. Obsessed.
Since childhood, her heart-and her eyes-belonged to Billy, the golden boy next door. While everyone else just liked him, she worshipped him. Every laugh, every tear, every secret glance... she captured it all through her camera lens, hidden behind curtains and school hallways. Her room? A shrine. Her life? Built around him.
He never knew she existed. But that didn't matter.
He was hers-even if only in her mind.
Until the night it all changed.
She saw something she was never meant to witness but her obsession took a turn of darkness.

The Shadow I Loved...
He came like a secret, wrapped in silence and danger. Everyone warned me to stay away - but how do you escape someone who never chases, only watches? His words were rare, but his presence spoke louder than any promise. With every stolen glance, I lost a little more of myself... and found a side of me I never knew existed. Now I can't tell if he's protecting me from the darkness - or if he is the darkness itself. A story of obsession, surrender, and the kind of love that burns quietly... until it consumes you.

She hated the spotlight. He lived in it. She was just the quiet girl with perfect grades. He was power wrapped in charm. Rich beyond belief. An heir to a name powerful enough to open any door and shut any mouth. Nobody knew her secrets, hidden behind glass smiles and a shine so bright. Nobody knew his darkness, worn like a crown. That was bowed before. He didn't shine, he burned. Selena didn't know what she was getting into. It was her sister's friend. It was a harmless crush. A fantasy. A look. But then, he looked back. Now he wants her. To claim. To possess. To destroy and rebuild until there's nothing left of her that isn't his. He'd bleed, hurt -- burn down the world to have her. She wanted to belong. He wanted her to belong to him.
UNDER HIS CONTROL
"It's funny how a small, foolish belief can either bloom into something that brightens your life... or destroy it entirely. That's exactly what happened to me- the boy who everyone looked at as if he were bad luck, a curse, a sin that should've never existed in this already damned world. But what happens when you start believing it yourself? When you're forced to witness the terrifying sight of a corpse in the pitch- black darkness? It didn't end there. Because of that so-called bad luck... I met you. You became my bad luck. You became my eternal curse. ⚠️Content warning: This story explores dark and sensitive themes.

Heart
Her name was Gabriella Quintanilla. She was a senior in high school during this time. She had the looks, all the boys, the popularity, the clothes, and even the grades. And in no way was she ignorant of any of these things--quite the opposite. She knew that she was above average in most categories of life, and had no problem reminding people repeatedly of that fact. I'm not going to lie---I didn't like her. Not at all. To be completely honest, I threatened to kill her with my bare hands. And the scary thing is, I meant it. I wanted her to die. I imagined dark fantasies of the light fading from her eyes right before my own, her pleading for me to spare her life. And in my fantasies, I wouldn't listen and I didn't care. She had tortured me for five years and I was utterly and simply sick of it all. Sick of her. My animosity towards Gabriella was no secret among my peers. Not many people liked her, so it's not like I stood alone on the concept. However I was the only one who voiced a threat. THE threat. The threat that got me on a suspect list in some cop's notepad. They want to know if I killed her. If they knew the whole story, would they blame me if I did? ©Copyright Timara M. Lewis 2013Complete
