My hands are plunged in a darkness- I am cursed by my own skin. The sky shines in the scars that adorn me.
One slash, one line for each time I was betrayed.
But there is a story to be told of a boy, an adventure, of triumph and of death. We were the rulers of our own darkness, not heroes, but chaos in a land old and ready to crawl into its bed just one last time.All Rights Reserved

Altered by LuellaOpal

Have you ever met someone who alters the course of your life? For good or for bad, they've come in, given and taken, and then- BOOM! Your life was never the same. There's always a change, an altering of reality. When you meet those people, the reality that you've known your whole life is suddenly gone and a new one has taken its place. When those moments happen, there's no going back. You can try to return to the way things were but nothing, and I mean nothing, can take you back to exactly how it was. That's what happened to us. I think that's why we're still trying so desperately to get back to some sort of normalcy. Four years later and we're still on the ground, crawling, in search of the happiness that was lost that June. Summers will never be the same. Midnight walks through my neighborhood will never be the same. Field parties with bonfires and loud music will never be the same. I still don't know why you left and what lead you to the decision you made. What I do know is that we're here. We're alive and we're pushing forward to the future. A future that you're not a part of. But in some ways, I'm glad you're not a part of it. I just wish it wasn't like this. *** TRIGGER WARNING*** SA, abuse, suicide, substance abuse, and mental illness. This is a complete story that is much like life; fast, full of surprises, and not always how we want it to be. This has been a project of mine for over three years. It was self-published on Amazon, but after some issues in publication, I decided to just upload it on here. I hope you fall in love with these characters like I have. The friends in this story are trying to make names for themselves, figure out who they are, who they can trust, how to love, and how to separate themselves from a restrictive community. As in any coming of age story, they will experience growing pains... but will they survive them before its too late? PLEASE READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS.

Different Indifferents by Keikofeliciano22

When I said that I wanted to be different, of all the ways possible I didn't want it to be this way. I just feel like I am being played by my own words and I am being betrayed by myself and my mind, it is also not much of a help. . . . "You know, what makes the night sky even more beautiful, because our loved ones are there. Every day people lose someone they cherish and they go up there and join other stars. This is why they are so beautiful".

Moth by DArenson

They say the world used to turn. They say that night would follow day in an endless dance. They say that dawn rose, dusk fell, and we worshiped both sun and stars. That was a long time ago. The dance has died. The world has fallen still. We float through the heavens, one half always in light, one half always in shadow. Like the moth of our forests, one wing white and the other black, we are torn. My people are the fortunate. We live in daylight, blessed in the warmth of the sun. Yet across the line, the others lurk in eternal night, afraid... and alone in the dark. I was born in the light. I was sent into darkness. This is my story.

The Black Stars of Melanin by TheBlackStarWriter

These chains... they bind me. Her face... it reminds me. My love was turned to hate, my freedom revoked by those who subjugate. That nightmare became a reality. That fateful day when the blood-red sky wept. And the rest of the world slept. When we became your slaves. All that is left, is survival!

The Only Star in the Sky (wattpadprize14) by kittlecake

"I was in a bad place, a dark place. It was like it was night and it was too dark to see the beauty in...well, in everything. And then I met you, and you were like the only star in the sky, come to light my way through life."

Let There Be Darkness by 8Caraphernelia8

"No. I don't want to," I answered. Our conversation didn't go well, because I wanted to be silent, and he wanted to talk. It seemed to me that it had become even lighter around, although the night was only deepening. It couldn't be dawn already, could it? I looked around and ran my eyes along the horizon. The sun was not visible, and the sky was not turning gray. "The night is so bright. ", Drake noticed too. And now I frowned. Why was it? And then there was an explosion that almost deafened me. Rocks flew in all directions. Something exploded in our house. In our dear asteroid. Drake and I jumped almost simultaneously, fell to the ground and covered our heads with our hands. Before I could understand what had happened, there was another explosion and this time screams...

My Mate's Betrayal by stanakatic1995

When you are at your lowest there is only one thing you can do and that is to rise. Our protagonist went through some tough sh*t and then like a phoenix she was born again from her ashes. Every time someone tries to take you down you must not feel degraded or keep wallowing in self pity. Be the champion you wish for to come and rescue you. This story is about one of those people who choose to become their "Knight in shining armour" rather than waiting for one to show up. A sneak peek of what's inside. Have a look. I am sure you will like it. "Romantic dates, public declaration of love, standing by her side when going gets tough. Girls were jealous of her for getting such a loving and attentive mate or so she thought. It wasn't jealousy that seared their bond but the hidden truth that she stumbled upon. Daughter of an alpha, a girl who wears her heart on her sleeve, sheltered from world by her herculean father, over protective twin and annoying younger brother. A girl that looks at world in good faith. Sooner than later her faith was shredded to pieces. It happened a week before her 18th birthday. It was a moon less night but her pack was awash with light and cheer. It was for marking ceremony, where she would be marked by her mate and then after a private family gathering they were to leave for secluded wood that were sacred in its own way. It was a way to welcome her mate into the family and getting to know what was in store for him after they complete their mating when she turned eighteen. All in all it was a big day and she was supposed to be happiest person alive as nothing seem better then bonding to someone for life that makes you happy and love you for who you are. But alas! it was an illusion, a beautiful mirage that ended that day." To know what happened next you have to tag along, i will only say one thing, HELL HATH NO FURY LIKE A WOMEN SCORNED. ~SK.

Shattered Hearts ✓ by itstaani

In a world where trust is a fragile commodity, one girl's journey through the depths of deception and heartbreak is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit. Once enveloped in the warmth of unwavering faith, her world shatters when the ones she trusted most become architects of her pain. As she navigates the treacherous waters of betrayal, labeled as arrogant and burdened with trust issues, she finds solace in the quiet strength of a companion who stands by her side. Together, they face the crushing weight of broken trust and the haunting echoes of deceit that threaten to consume them. In a narrative woven with the threads of resilience and redemption, "Shattered Hearts" explores the profound journey of survival in the face of unimaginable pain. It is a story of love tested by betrayal, of wounds that refuse to heal, and of the indomitable spirit that rises from the ashes of betrayal to reclaim the light of hope.

The Viscellie Princess by maleclaceizzy

The air stills as I stand from my spot on the cold, hard ground. I didn't see this coming, but who has the power to tell the future? They all stare at me in awe. Waiting. But for what? I'm not sure. I don't know how this happened. I can tell you how I saw it from my eyes. But it's probably the only story I'll ever tell willingly. Let's start from the beginning.
