Noun: A part broken off or detached. 

He woke up dead. The world is next.

Carter remembers nothing-not his name, not his past, only the bone-deep cold of the void inside him. When his hospital reflection shows a scarred soldier screaming silently, he runs. But the city is glitching: shadows crawl, faces unravel, and reality bleeds static.

His only anchor is Lena's ghost-worn by a woman who shouldn't exist. Together, they're hunted by:

Dr. Reynolds, who resurrected Carter as a weapon.

Shape-stealing horrors stitching themselves into human skin.

An ancient entropy scraping at the edges of time, hungry to unmake everything.

To survive, Carter must become colder than the dark between stars. To save her, he might shatter the world.

But the nightmare doesn't end when the creature releases her. The real horror begins when she realizes it never truly let go. With her body forever changed and something unnatural growing inside her, she fights to reclaim her sanity before the thing inside her takes over completely. Vi, desperate to save her sister, embarks on a dangerous path through the ruins of forgotten experiments and the whispers of beings that should not exist. But as she delves deeper, she begins to question whether Jinx is still the girl she once knew... or something else entirely. As the abyss tightens its grip, the sisters must face the ultimate question: Can you escape a monster that now lives inside you? Or was Jinx doomed the moment she let it. Content Warning: This story contains elements of psychological horror, body horror, eldritch themes, and steamy yet dark encounters.

32 parts Complete Mature
A dystopian thriller that evolves into a violent sci-fi nightmare with hints of monster (very) dark romance. --------- Alice has a good life: a great job, a cozy, paid-off apartment, and a loving husband. She also has an oppressive government, a war-torn city, and general social decay around her, and what seems to be an alien invasion, though nobody is willing to admit it. You know, the kind of things that can really throw a wrench into a morning commute. She should have left a long time ago, but right or wrong, it's her country. What's the worst that could happen? No, seriously, what's literally the worst? ------ It starts as my lightest and most melancholic work, but will end up the heaviest -- expect constantly rising tension as we go from moody dystopia into politics and philosophy into bdsm and violence, and into... oh well, read it. Overarching themes: evolution, adaptation, duty, freedom, metal music. The first 10 chapters are a clean, dystopian, political story. From 11th chapter on, wheels come off. I tried to make it sound universal; still, you can figure out approximately when I had it first outlined. Warnings (from chapter 11 on): violence, attempted SA, dubcon, smut. ----------- If you are reading this story on any other platform other than Wattpad you are very likely to be at risk of a malware attack.

And some acquaintances are impossible to walk away from. Rebecca is forced to choose between the life she's been handed-and the one she's willing to risk everything for.

The Bright Room | 18+ by paleverse
24 parts Complete Mature
A deconstruction of dark romance set within a psychological thriller, wrapped in an erotic horror story, inside an urban fantasy setting, infused with sci-fi elements, and sprinkled with plenty of nerdiness. I can't guarantee you'll like it, but you definitely haven't read anything like it before. Fair warning - the erotic horror elements are pretty hard. ------ Samantha is ambitious, determined, and strong - a habitual overachiever. But happy? Never. She returns to her hometown and her old best friend, hoping for a weekend of respite, perhaps even a fresh start. Instead, she finds herself thrown into mortal danger, left hovering one breath from death. But survival is only the beginning. Saved by a man whose intentions are anything but clear, Samantha undergoes a procedure far worse than dying, losing herself, layer by agonizing layer. She awakens in the Bright Room reborn - a mystery, both to her captor and herself. To reclaim her life, she must confront impossible questions. Is freedom worth becoming a monster? Can she exact vengeance on the one who saved her? And does she truly want to? For you if you love: Strong, complex women who never back down; moral ambiguity; intense psychological drama; power struggles; trauma explored deeply; twisted relationships that make typical love/hate dynamics look tame. Not for you if: You're young or easily triggered - this story doesn't look away when bad things happen. Note: the cover is temporary, working on a proper one (though similar). ----------- If you are reading this story on any other platform other than Wattpad you are very likely to be at risk of a malware attack.
