Silas Rowan has lived his life in silence, haunted by the memory of his brother’s death, hiding behind a mask of unspoken truths in a city that never listens. One night, he nearly drowns in the same river that claimed his brother. But instead of dying, he awakens in his industrial high-rise apartment, soaked and gasping, with something waiting in the shadows.

The creature is ancient, born of drowned voices and forgotten confessions, and it knows every word Silas has never spoken. It follows him, echoes him, and feeds on the silence that defines him. Yet in its haunting presence, Silas feels a dangerous intimacy, a pull he can’t resist, caught between fear, desire, and the desperate need to be understood.

As neighbors begin to vanish and the building itself seems to close in around him, Silas is forced to confront the truth he has buried all his life. To survive, he must decide whether to finally speak, or let the creature consume him, body and soul.

A gothic blend of psychological horror and dark romance, Silence Between Us explores love, silence, and the terrifying cost of never saying what you mean.

Dali's Clock by JouetMort
1 part Complete Mature
In a crumbling hotel lost to time, Silas awakens in a room he cannot leave, staring into the eyes of Delphine-his lover, long dead. Haunted by addiction, guilt, and the unbearable weight of memory, Silas is caught in a liminal loop where time collapses and death is not the end, but a haunting echo of everything unresolved. Delphine, a woman both fragile and furious, took her life in that very room. Her return marks not resurrection, but repetition-an eternal recurrence shaped by Silas's inability to let go. As he searches for a way out, guided by Mortem, a spectral hound, Silas encounters mythic forces that govern fate itself: Death, weary and watchful, and the Harbinger-Death's estranged soulmate and the cosmic midwife of endings. The Harbinger reveals to Silas the truth of his entrapment and the love story that predates their earthly lives. What began as addiction and loss transforms into a metaphysical reckoning-a journey through trauma, memory, and the cyclical nature of suffering. But within this ruin, there is also the seed of something new: a child, born beyond death, carrying the legacy of Silas and Delphine, of the Harbinger and Death, of all that must end to begin again. The Harbinger is a darkly poetic, emotionally charged novel that blends literary fiction with supernatural elements. With echoes of The Lovely Bones and The Ocean at the End of the Lane, it is a meditation on grief, intimacy, reincarnation, and the redemptive power of enduring love.

shattered souls: a dark romance

16 parts Ongoing Mature

Rose I was always used to doing what people tell me to do. Get good grades they said. Take care of your little sister they said. Let me borrow everything you own and never give it back they said. No matter what was asked of me I always complied but it was never enough. I was always the people pleaser, the one who bends and breaks for everyone else's needs, but no matter how much I tried I always end up alone. ...Until I met him. Silas My entire existence was a mistake from the moment I was conceived. Born to a 15-year-old girl in Rome, Italy. Then orphaned. I learned to fight to survive. No one ever knew what to expect from me, and it scared them. By the age of 10 I had a reputation as a psychopath. Some even say I'm a cold-hearted unhinged killer. Cold-hearted? Wrong. Unhinged killer? Accurate. People barely considered me human. ... until I laid my eyes on her. Two shattered souls, two broken hearts, find healing in love. New cover designed by Nightenghale. ♡
