Until You Break
Summary: She wasn't interested. When she finally did cave, she never meant for it to be more than one night. A fleeting indulgence. A mistake she could forget. But Jake doesn't forget. He doesn't let go. And when she tries to move on, he reminds her- violently, that he won't allow it. What begins as an unsettling fixation spirals into something far darker, something suffocating. He watches her. Follows her. Marks her. She runs, she fights, but the deeper she falls into his madness, the more terrifying the truth becomes. She's starting to crave it, too. Trapped in a brutal game of obsession and power, she faces an impossible choice: destroy him before he destroys her... or surrender to the monster she helped create. Warnings: Toxic Relationship, Obsession, Desperation, Violence, Language, Drinking, Alluded Sexual Content, Depictions of Mental Health Struggles, Gaslighting, Mental Abuse, Emotional Abuse, Trauma, Gore, Death and other Mature Themes - Use your own judgement, and read at your own risk!

The Hollow Prince
COMPLETED. *NSFW* Auralie doesn't believe in fae stories-not the ones whispered by dying villagers, not the ones about cursed woods or monsters that eat your heart. But when girls begin to vanish and strange symbols bleed from the bark of the forest, she crosses the veil in search of answers. What she finds is him. Unmoving. Inhuman. Wearing a crown of antlers and eyes like cut emeralds, sharp with amusement. He speaks in riddles. Smiles like a threat. And calls her little moth, like a name he's been saving. The first time they meet, she draws his blood. The second, he offers her a bargain. The third, he consumes her. The Hollow Prince says worse things hunt her now-creatures that wear her face, sing her name, and slip into her dreams. He claims he's the only thing standing between her and the dark. But the deeper Auralie goes, the more twisted the forest becomes-and the harder it is to tell whether the prince is her captor, her shield, or the very thing she was warned to fear. There is a curse. A game. And a price that was never hers to pay.Complete
The Sound Of Your Voice
Dylan Bautista, the 25-year-old boy next door turned world-famous singer, musician, and painter, seemed to have everything-fame, fortune, and the kind of smile that made the world believe he was untouchable. But beneath the stage lights and painted canvases, his world begins to dim when he's diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder known as Usher Syndrome. The news comes crashing down the same night a devastating car accident steals his coordination and balance, trapping his once-brilliant hands in trembling silence. The trauma speeds up the cruel progress of his illness, blurring his hearing, fading his vision, and locking him inside a body that no longer dances to his music. Even the wealth and devotion of his adoptive parents can't buy back the rhythm of his steps or the clarity of his art. As months fade into endless therapy sessions, Dylan's reflection becomes a ghost of who he once was. When tragedy strikes again and his parents die suddenly, the last piece of his world finally shatters. In the silence left behind, enters Lea, the quiet, patient nurse hired by his late parents' trusted secretary to guide him through his brokenness. With each day she tends to him, Lea begins to see the man beneath the fame-the boy who still dreams of color and melody in a world going dark. Her care becomes more than duty; it becomes a lifeline pulling him toward hope, piece by fragile piece. But can she truly heal a man whose world is fading both in sound and sight? Or will Dylan's descent into silence swallow every song and stroke he has left to give? Disclaimer: This story is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to real people or events is purely coincidental - but if it feels real, that's because the heart remembers what the mind forgets. If they remind you of someone or something real, maybe it's because pain and hope speak a language we all understand. Still, if you see pieces of your own story here, take it as a reminder - even in fiction, healing is possible.

Crescent | SAMPLE
For the fae, magic is everything: status, power, wealth, honor. For Vera Reite, a fae born with no magic, it is a shameful reminder that she will never amount to anything. Whispers of a fae-killing monster begin to circulate the Moon Court. It lurks in the woods, feeding off the mana of its victims. Those that go missing and find themselves at the mercy of the beast are never seen or heard from again. Fear quickly takes hold of the fae court; it's only a matter of time before their whole world is destroyed by this creature. However, it offers Vera a glimmer of hope. When she learns of it, she ventures into the wood to kill the beast, believing that she will be able to absorb the magic it has stolen. But the woods are as dangerous as the beast, and Vera soon finds herself lost. In a stroke of luck, she comes across an old manor deep in the forest where a strange boy is sealed away. If Vera wishes to slay the beast, she will first have to uncover the secret of the manor and its prisoner before it's too late. 𝐀 𝐟𝐚𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐜. 𝐀 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐥𝐲 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐭.
