Malachi is an ungodly man and he knows it. He knows he's a liar every time he fakes remorse when confessing his sins. He knows he's a liar every time his bloodstained hands press together in an act of 'prayer'. And he knows he's a liar when he holds a bible in his hand and it feels as though it burns through his skin. But when what can only be described as the devil herself decides to punish him he can only hope for mercy from being above man, someone to spare him from this sinister temptress.

Falling For You
Zarina didn't expect to find peace - not in this city, not after everything she'd been through. She came searching for a fresh start, a quiet space to heal and breathe again. What she found instead was Malachi - the man who became both her calm and her chaos. Malachi has always been the dependable one - steady, loyal, and guarded. He wasn't looking for love, only balance. But the moment Zarina walked into his world, laughing at his dry humor and challenging his quiet rules, everything shifted. She was light in places he'd long kept dark, warmth where he thought he'd grown cold. As Zarina rebuilds her life piece by piece, Malachi finds himself drawn deeper into her orbit - helping her move in, picking out furniture, spending long nights at the beach under silver skies. What starts as friendship begins to burn with an intensity neither of them can ignore. But love, for both of them, comes tangled with fear - of being hurt again, of losing control, of being truly seen. And as their connection deepens, they must learn to navigate the line between healing and falling, between comfort and surrender. A story about two souls who find home in each other - where laughter turns to love, trust becomes courage, and every broken piece fits exactly where it's meant to be.Complete
Decadent
My hand slaps against my mouth as I try to shut myself up. Don't make too much noise...or he'll hear you. A vehicle's door opens then slams shut. I don't hear footsteps...but as the minutes go by I begin to hear them; the footsteps get louder and louder and louder, matching the sound of my thundering heart. That's when I see his shadow cast over the ditch...over the place where I tried to hide. "Well," he says with a smile in his voice. "I wonder where he could've gone...the footprints stop here...so I wonder if he just...disappeared?" My body begins to tremble. I can feel it now. The pain. I can feel the pain already. He jumps down into the ditch...he stands directly in front of me, with his back facing me. My hand presses harder against my mouth as I try to suppress my whimper, but it's way too late now. But his body tenses up when he hears it. He laughs bitterly as he turns around slowly, and his eyes cut through my camouflage easily. "There you are."Complete

Merciless - Season 1
Welcome to the Sanctuary, a place of spiritual rebirth nestled in the barren desert. At least, that's what the recruitment videos promise. The truth is a lie wrapped in hope. The compound is a prison, sealed by fencing curved inward-not to keep intruders out, but to keep souls in. It is ruled by a man known only as The Messiah. Charismatic, beautiful, and utterly psychotic, he commands absolute obedience through a twisted faith of fear, "Juju," and bizarre sexual rituals. He is a god with a temper and a severe cocaine addiction , and his followers are the broken masses who worship the ground he walks on. In this hell, Mercy is the exception. Wearing the red robe that marks him as "favored," Mercy is the Messiah's most prized possession-his gatekeeper, his advisor, and his sexual plaything. But where others are broken, Mercy is a weapon. He has never truly surrendered his will and is playing a dangerous game for survival. He is surrounded by a hierarchy of rivals: Prince Terrence: The ruthless second-in-command in black, a "personal bitch" to the Messiah who is consumed by jealousy. Elder Mother Supreme: The 83-year-old head cook in green, a sadistic and powerful advisor who handles the compound's "dirty work" and buries its secrets. Headmaster Oakley: The obsessive educator in yellow, responsible for indoctrinating new minds into the cult's twisted ways. All of them want Mercy . But their desire is a vulnerability he can exploit. When a brutal power struggle with Elder Mother Supreme escalates from a slap to a poisoned pie, Mercy must use his enemies' obsessions against them to survive. In a world where escape means public execution and unauthorized sex is punished with acid, the only way to win is to be more calculating and more brutal than the monsters who rule. In the Sanctuary, mercy is just a name.

Beastly || Andy Biersack
"You only care about yourself." I snapped. His face softened. "That's not true." Such a lie. He had no shame in lying to my face, nor did he have shame in his behavior or actions towards me. He was selfish. He only cared about himself and no one around him. The games he played with my head. The things he said to my face. Everything he's done to me has broken me more than I already was, so why was I still here? Why was I here with him? Why was I thinking about him and thinking of his feelings instead of my own? "I care about one thing." "What's that?" I asked gently. "You."Complete
