"Abort it." "Excuse me ?" "Abort that thing inside of you!" He shouts in my face. I put my hands on his chest, trying to put some space between us. The man didn't even budge. "I'm not aborting my baby!" I feel strong hands wrap around my throat, and the next thing I know, I'm being lifted off the floor, fighting for air. "Listen here, you bitch you will abort that child, and if you don't, I'll personally kill you both myself. I'm a man of my word. Do not test me." He spat dead calm. Elora finds herself in a sticky position when her brother was in a terrible car accident, leading to an expensive medical bill that neither of them could afford. Her parents died when she was young, leaving her brother as her sole guardian. The two had been incredibly close over the years, and she had to find a way to help him in his current position. She had no choice but to sleep with a man she knew nothing about for money to cover the hospital bill, but later found out she was pregnant. The worst-case scenario is that the father wants nothing to do with her and the unborn child. After three years of guilt, pain, and regret, the two cross paths once more, and Elora struggles to make the right decisions as he was determined to be in their little girl's life.

Squeak by anboyden

She was the undesired outcast, who stood out, yet simultaneously blended effortlessly into the background. I could see the panic in her glassy brown eyes as she prayed her way through the crowded hallways. She'd tightly clutch that cross around her neck, full lips whispering, asking her God to spare her from their scornful glares, hateful comments, and the occasional rough-up. Silly girl. Did she not know that he was not listening and he would never save her? Like Jesus, she was the sacrificial lamb. The anxiety-riddled girl would burst through the doors of the school's library with her chest heaving, heart racing, and sweat dripping from her temples. I'd watch her from the shadows as she stored her items behind the check-out counter, preparing for her free period she spent assisting the school librarian. I clenched my teeth, watching her wheel a cart of books throughout the aisles as she cheerfully hummed her Sunday hymnals. She wore a green and blue pinafore dress that fell mid-calf on her shapely body. She attempted to hide that body from me with oversized clothes, but you could never outfox a fox. They spoke pure blasphemy when they labeled her undesirable because I desired Jezebel Holmes in the worst way. Those opaque white stockings our classmates teased her for wearing did nothing but spur countless hours of fantasies. I'd dream about ripping her tights apart, right at her center, revealing her virginal cotton white panties covering her untouched paradise. I'd yank them to the side and taste her fear in her cum. Her stockings would find themselves strangling her neck while I fucked a believer out of her. I would be the one she'd pray to absolve her of her sins. I would be the one she would seek protection from. I would be her guiding light. I would be her God. #1 in Dark Romance #1 in Tainted Love #1 in Preacher's Daughter 1st Place in General Category - Hearts Award

"Cross-X" Origin of Leo Fincher [Creepypasta Backstory] by ForessFaction

This is the backstory to my Creepypasta OC named Leo Fincher or well, Cross-X. I spent a lot of time on this and I know it will probably never blow up but, I did have a lot of fun writing this and in hope of it giving someone joy of reading. This is the story of a schizophrenic boy slowly working his way down the cruel path to insanity. My instagram: @foressfactionn (old one was hacked) My Deviant Art: Eye-Dentity00 Editor's/ @Sea_Of_Light artist of the cover: sammyaart on Instagram ø NOTE: Leo is a small Creepypasta character concept that I wanted to put together for a while now, and now that I finally have him all planned out, in hope that his story will get somewhere in the community. He is an OC I had my heart on for a while now. SIDE NOTE: there will be grammar mistakes and miss-spellings. No matter how much I edit it I find more. Bare with me here this is not the final copy anyways as I will edit it all eventually. This is just being posted here so those who want to read it early and easier can do so. NOTE: I also am aware that just making a murderer character with a tragic story and naming it as a Creepypasta is quite cliché, but I do however like the concept of it, and wanted to make my own. As I know, Creepypastas are horror stories and this however may not be a horror story, and more of a thriller, i'd still like to label it as into the horror community. "Upon losing his birth parents who manipulated him to think they were all he ever was going to have, moving into his side family who turned out to have dark secrets, and of course his new public school life to top it all off." Rated R !TRIGGER WARNINGS! This story contains: Gore, Domestic Violence, Child abuse, Substance abuse, curse words, adult content, death. If you are under 13 then do not read, unless you are mature enough to handle it. Yes it will be super long! But I'm trying to build worlds for my characters as i love doing that!

The Tally by kgoodwill

I run a tattoo parlor, I work everyday doing the same thing. The same people walk in and all ask for the same thing. A tally mark among the other cluster of tally marks. I never ask why I just put a l line next to the one I did the week before but after doing it for so long you start to wonder. I should have never put my nose in these people's business but I wouldn't be where I am today without doing so, but for you to understand I must start from the beginning. Tayla is an owner of a tattoo parlor, she was taken away and became a hacker for an assassins organization. After failing one too many times she was taken to the doctors where she became an experiment. They mixed her DNA with that of a Cobras giving her new abilities to be there new weapon. What will happen to Tayla? Will she ever be the same? A/N Pictures do belong to whoever posted them, I found them on google. I understand that the pic I have for my characters are from movies and those movies do belong to those writers. I created all original characters for this story with an interesting time line. My character Victor was inspired from the one of Gotham but he is not the same character I created him to look the same as him (obviously) and sorta the same occupation but that is it. He will be a new character.
