Luminaria
Morinathia Rosales lived for the thrill of luxury - designer labels, champagne toasts, and flawless skin. To her, happiness always came with a price... until the price turned out to be her life. Waking up in a world unknown, she finds herself in the body of a royal - not on a throne, but in chains. From glam to dungeon, from clinking champagne glasses to the screech of iron rails that caged her in. Her second life doesn't crown her a queen... it chains her as a prisoner.
Aspirations
Aspirations were creatures created by the gods to keep humans entertained and happy. Humans would no longer need the gods for deeds; Aspirations could do them. But what happens when a certain mortal goes looking for a particular Aspiration and ends up in a web of disaster? And what happens when the dark and destructive past of that Aspiration breaks from its cage and seeks revenge? This is my first time sharing a story I've created so I hope you all enjoy! I also draw a lot so some of the chapter pictures are done by me to give some visuals of the characters. It's a little bit of a slow start but gets really chaotic toward the end. There are TW in this story just in case. I think after writing this I might need to go to therapy. I swear I'm not crazy!Complete

Give me shelter
Have you ever felt so lonely you believed there was nothing left for you? Stashed away, merely forgotten. I mean you could cry and cry, yet no one would hear you.

You devalue your beliefs, your morals fall short and that hollow rock turns into your Mirror. Do you matter anymore? Would anyone care if you simply disappeared? Could you find your way out of the darkness? Look Closer is one of my favourite quotes and so I'll use it as a guide to understanding the complex characters you're about to meet.Complete

Could it be something as simple as fate forcing us down whatever predetermined path was set upon our birth? No one can really say for sure what drives our lives in the direction they end up going. Sometimes we wake ourselves up to realize this isn't who I wanted to be and drown ourselves in delusions, convinced its unchangeable, or they are not willing to put the effort in to try to change their life because it may be to hard or painful. Others don't care content with the life they have and just float through life trying to not get caught up in everything. There are also those that blame fate or a higher existence then them for their problems and mistakes never truly taking accountability.

The Demon Who Loved The Divine
"What is wrong?" "What is right?" "What does it mean to be a god?!" "If being a god means manipulating and controlling everything like a puppet," my tears trickle down to my cheeks. "If being a god means losing everything..." I cried even more. I can't seem to control my emotions. "If being a god means killing the man I love, then I.." I stand with conviction with the mighty bow and arrow on my hand. "I will stay as a demon and defy the heavens. I will stain my soul with sin and blood. I will burn the world to ashes if it means feeling his warmth in my arms again." "Crush the gods!" Between heaven, earth, and hell, I stand alone, and I alone am overpowered.
