What Lurks Beneath the Surface ✔️ by neurotick

"Maybe I should bring you home," he suggests. "Maybe you should find us a more secluded spot," I toss back, snaking my arms around his neck. "You're pretty drunk, Vange." "I am." "And we barely know each other." I feel myself deflate like a balloon after receiving the sharp end of a needle. Of course Rem doesn't want me. Nash doesn't want me, either. Hell, my own father doesn't even want me. What is it about me that's so unlikable? ---------- Good girl Evangeline Porter has always felt like there was a darkness inside of her, just trying to claw its way to the surface. She hides it well, but when she starts having nightmares that feel more like memories, she is desperate for answers. Unfortunately, no one will give them to her. With the help of her longtime crush, Rem, she launches an amateur investigation into her family's history, except what they uncover is more sinister than Evangeline ever could have imagined. The truth doesn't set you free, after all. ‼️WARNING: The romance in this novel is fast-paced. If you want slow-burn, this isn't for you. That's all I'm going to say about it.‼️ ***BOOK THREE IN THE RAE OF LIGHT SERIES. However, it can be read as a stand-alone.*** Copyright © 2020 Briana Eliza. All rights reserved.

Human Alastor x Fem!Reader (It has a whole asylum bit, if you don't like that don't read, okay? Okay cool bye!) "Do you realize that I've murdered, tortured and killed people giving me less attitude than you are now. You are acting like a sulking child, Is that what you want? To be treated like a child?" He raised his voice and took a few steps forward. Your back hit the wall and you felt trapped. "I should've just killed you..." He said quietly. "Why didn't you?" You spoke through stuttered breaths. "I-" He went silent and stared into your eyes trying to think of an answer. (In this book you slowly go insane 😍) This is a 18+ book there will be: - Gore -murder -Smut (yes I know Alastor is ace/asexual BUT this is like an alternate universe) Smut chapters will be skippable and won't affect the story :) -violence -torture -sexual themes -swearing -cannibalism I will put a warning at the top of a chapter.

Walking through a crowd is hell. Not to mention that when she opens her big mouth to tell people what's going to happen to them, most treat her like she's crazy - even after she saves their lives. But meddling with the future has consequences, and Death is not all there is to fear. As Evelyn races to find a way to save the new transfer student from being murdered, a voice starts whispering in her ear. Someone or something lurks in the shadows. Watching. Waiting. Trying to get close using mind games and tricks. It knows about her powers. It knows she can change Fate - and it's not alone. ------------------------------------------- This book is written in Australian English and uses British style grammar.
