Nightmares are creatures of shadows, who create nightmares for the humans, transforming their fear, sadness and despair into energy. They are totally invisible and intangible to humans, even if they can grab and touch objects. Desire is one of them. Being chased by another Nightmare, who wants him dead, and all alone, he tries to survive.
And then he meets Camelia. A human capable of sensing Nightmares, which would normally be impossible. Intrigued by her, Desire decides to stay with her. But the thing is; Camelia is no ordinary human: she is blind.

---The first desired something he could never get.
The second wished to be someone else.
The third allied with loved ones to better destroy them.
The last was so different it attracted the others.
For better or for worst.---

Completed!!! :D

Darkness has a new face, and it's hungry. They thought they were ready. They were wrong. A creature born of nightmares rises, threatening to consume the very light they fought to ignite. Liam's grip is all that anchors her as chaos explodes around them. Their only hope? A desperate gamble with an ancient altar. But victory is a cruel illusion. Selene's warning echoes: the shadows are more than minions; they're them. And as familiar faces twist into grotesque mockeries, doubt becomes a weapon more deadly than any fang. One wrong move, one moment of weakness, and everything they've fought for will be swallowed by the abyss. What lurks beyond the shadows? And what price will they pay for awakening it?

In the darkest depths of the Void lies a dream. It's been there of thousands of years undisturbed and thriving. Well maybe not the people in the dream, but the monsters that were conjured into being the moment the dream started seem to do well for themselves. Beasts made out of mangled body parts And congealed flesh, some with dozens of eyes, others with dozens of mouths. All seeming impossible to the eyes of any who aren't one of them and maddening to look at. They rule the dream with tooth and claw, terror and torment. And they relish it. The worst of there are Pathos and Addac, two such creatures of speed and strength who banded together to rule over the rest. They are brothers in bloodshed and destroyers of whole kingdoms. However, the dream isn't permanent. Like most dreams once the dreamer awakens the dream will end along with everything inside or tied to it. Then a new terror will arrive to take its place; the Sleeping God who was sealed away years ago by the All Fathers themselves.
