It's been days since he last ate. Outside, something waits for something no one is supposed to see. Alone in a locked room, with only silence and whispers for company, he faces a choice, stay safe and starve, or open the door and risk everything. Some truths aren't meant to be known. Some things you wish you never saw.

TRAPPED IN HIS EYES
Nobody ever thinks their life will shatter in an instant-until it does. Not at first. You wake up, you go through the motions, and you trust the people around you. You laugh, you cry, you love. You never stop to wonder if the hands you hold today will be the same ones that destroy you tomorrow. I never did. I never questioned the warmth in his smile, the strength in his presence, the way he stood by my side like a shadow I could always rely on. I thought I had finally found someone who understood me, someone who didn't see me as an outsider. Someone I called a brother. But trust is a dangerous thing. It blinds you. It makes you miss the signs staring right at you. Because the moment I saw the truth- I realized I had been holding the devil's hand all along. #5 Survivor #36 ObsessionComplete
CROSS: Blood Horizon
They didn't die. They didn't teleport. They woke up in a world that hunts them. Leo has no memories, blood on his hands, and strength he shouldn't have. Soon, he meets others like him- teenagers with strange abilities and no way home.
Just Until Help Comes...
"We've only been here for two days now, not a lifetime, so calm down. I know you'd all rather be sitting comfortable at home texting your friends, or playing video games, or whatever it is that you do while not being stranded in the middle of god knows where. Trust me. I don't want to be here either. But help has to come... Somebody has to have noticed us missing by now, and they'll come looking for us. I can feel it. So, just until help comes, we'll do what we have to do to survive."
The Silence Between Us
His eyes met mine, and the world stopped breathing. We didn't need words; the silence between us burned hotter than fire. It wasn't love anymore it was something darker, something that tasted like pain and desire. It was heavy, suffocating... the kind of silence that crawls under your skin and refuses to leave. Between us, it wasn't love anymore it was hunger, obsession, and something far darker. He didn't have to touch me to make me shiver. His gaze did that. His silence did that. And I hated how much I craved it how much I craved him. He didn't say he missed me, but his silence did. Every pause, every glance, every breath between us screamed the truth He was mine, even when he tried not to be. Follow me on Instagram for further updates farmdarm_224Complete
Beneath The Cracks
When Daniel Everly moves into a new apartment, he expects a fresh start-but instead, he finds something lurking beneath the floorboards. Strange whispers echo through the walls, objects move when he isn't looking, and time itself seems to shift around him. As his world begins to unravel, Daniel is forced to question what's real and what isn't. But the deeper he digs for answers, the more the shadows close in. Something is watching him. Something is waiting. And the more he listens, the harder it becomes to escape.Complete
Whispers in the Walls
They told me the house was empty. That the boy I was supposed to care for wasn't real. Just a doll. Just a job. But then I heard things. Felt things. The whispers in the walls, the way the air shifted like someone was always watching me. I should be scared. I should leave. But there's something about him-something that keeps pulling me back. Maybe it's the loneliness in his voice. Or the way he lingers in the shadows, waiting for me to see him. All I know is... I don't think I want to run anymore.Complete
The Room with No Corners
There is a moment before the dream begins where everything feels still. A breath held between worlds. In that moment, time doesn't move forward or backward-it waits. That's where I exist now. In the pause. In the static. I don't remember the exact day I started to vanish. Maybe it was slow. Maybe I was too quiet for the world to notice. They say the mind protects us from things we cannot bear. But what happens when the thing you're running from is yourself? Somewhere, there's a house that doesn't belong to any map. Its windows never reflect sunlight, and its walls curve so gently that you don't realize they're watching you. There's a girl in the mirror who looks like me, but she remembers things I don't. There's a bathtub filled with water so still it feels like a grave. There's a man I created-kind, warm, and perfectly not real. And there's a truth waiting at the end of the hallway. I'm afraid of it. But I think I've always known it. This story is not a confession. It's not a warning. It's just what happens when the silence gets too loud. And the corners begin to disappear.Complete
Haunting Adeline
"No wonder I'm going to protect her from the whole fucking world, but who's going to protect her from me?" ✧✧ "Cat got your tongue, little mouse?" ✧✧✧✧✧ They said the mansion was old. Haunted. Forgotten. I thought I was escaping. I didn't know I was walking straight into his trap. Someone is watching me. I hear whispers when I'm alone. Roses show up where they shouldn't. The air is heavy with secrets... and eyes I can't see. He's always one step ahead. One room closer. One breath behind me. I came here to be alone. But he made sure I would never be alone again. ------------ This is a rewritten version inspired by Haunting Adeline by H.D.
