crime ghosts heroine horror strong vengeance

This is a NEW story and a departure for me. It is incomplete as I am still working on it. Here is a brief blurb:

Crime; horror; and a lot of snark; what's not to like?

After a devastating home invasion, Emily is left reeling and griefstricken. Her pregnant daughter-in-law is dead as are her hopes for a grandchild to ease her grief after her son's untimely death. To add the final bitter straw, the family of the man who killed her daughter-in-law is suing Alicia for wrongful death after she managed to kill him during their struggle.

All Emily wants is to get away. Years before when "civilization" got to be too much, Emily went walkabout. Sure, it's an Australian concept for an adolescent Aborigine's spiritual journey and she's neither Australian nor an adolescent, but sometimes, simple concepts transcend continents to become universal. And now, amidst the stress of daily life, Emily feels the need to go on a spiritual journey to rediscover what is important. Or at least to find a reason to live.

Only when she goes camping with a friend, they find a hostile force in the swamp, a force that turns the swamp into a killing ground and her walkabout into a struggle to survive.All Rights Reserved

Live Wired (on indefinite hold) by RisingStarx

# I will stop publishing my story on wattpad because I'm worried about plagiarism. The world has been destroyed. All that remains is the Ark, and inside it, humans are oppressed by the Eldritch. On the outside, only death awaits thanks to heat so scorching it burns you alive, and cold so chilling, it freezes your retinas in under half a minute. Erin Watts is a 15-year-old human living in the slums of Designated Area No.6. He attends the prestigious Arlington School of Servitude and wants nothing more than having a bright future. Unfortunately, things aren't going his way as of late. His mother, a syred human, is sick and about to die. When she bites the dust, her protection from being syred to an Eldritch master will die with her, leaving Erin unprotected. His school is also starting to suspect he might not come from a wealthy background. And, to top it all off, his Eldritch neighbor wants to rape him and torture him to death. Could it get any worse for him? What can Erin do? How far will he go before he breaks down? Can he beat the system? Find out in this story about oppression, desperation, violence, and a pair of crazy girls. Disclaimer: The girls in this story are not the cliche mindless and submissive Daisies you find around Wattpad. If you are into that, then don't let the door hit you and leave. It also won't have your cliche yanderes.

I'll Never Let You Go by acurriebook

In the summer of 1960, Liv killed someone who deserved it. But every action has a consequence... *UPDATE: I see I have some new readers! I'm starving for feedback so please feel free to leave me any. Even if it's horrendous, you little goblins. *I'm in the middle of editing this book and seriously considering (after a few beta readers brought up real concern about the ages) raising the protagonist's age. The idea to make her so young was to show how society has a habit of rubber stamping truly perverse behavior towards teenage girls, even though they are just that, girls. It happened in the 60's, it happens now. But I understand how reading it can be distressing. Also, sorry for any glaring grammatical errors, repetitious phrases or mistakes. This is a finished draft, but still a rough draft. Really, very interested in feedback, be it story beats, character, concerns with content. Any and all of it. Thanks!

the Missing Piece (Jemily x Reader) by _healingmyself_

Jemily x Reader Story Emily Prentiss and Jennifer Jareau have been dating for a year. After working together for years, one night after a difficult case finally brought the two women together. Now they live in an apartment together and try to make friends with the nice couple next door. The shy Y/N in particular caught the attention of the two FBI agents. They would like to know more about the Woman next door. Why is she always so quiet and almost seems scared? Why is it so rare to see her without her girlfriend? Why is she so secretive when it comes to her private life? Can they lure the shy woman out of her shell? And what will come of it, friendship or something more? And why does Emily have such a strange gut feeling about the girlfriend? I'm writing this story from the first person perspective. I use the pronouns she/her for Y/N, if you would like something different, let me know. English is not my first language, so please be gracious. This story covers typical case-based topics such as murder (not clearly described), domestic abuse, violence. Also mental health problems such as depression, anxiety, eating disorders, self-harm and suicide attempt/thoughts. Please don't read this story if it triggers you. If you want to know exactly what TW each chapter has, feel free to message me. There will be Smut, smut- chapters will be marked with a (*) in the title. I don't own any of the characters!

The Dark Rose {discontinued} by fandomcentral1313

I have discontinued this story and never plan on writing in it ever again. But however, if you'd like to read what's here, go ahead. **** Alice had never known a wonderful, joy filled life. Her parents left her often, her uncle had abused her, and she just simply could not cope. She wakes up screaming and crying. Her parents had to figure out something, anything, to help her, for the therapy didn't work. They could only think of one way; moving. When Alice's parents decide to move to a quiet, yet creepy town in the middle of Ohio in attempts to escape their child's horrendous past, they have not heard of a local legend. This was the legend of The Dark Rose. However, when a boy across the street, Dylan, decides to visit Alice, all hell breaks loose. No, it was not his intention, but any child who lives in the house they moved to is doomed to a horrible fate. Alice, Dylan and his sister, Isabelle, figure out clues to save Alice and possibly stop the curse. But when you mess with the dead, you get more than you bargain for. [trigger warning and swearing]

The Darkness in the Light by djscloud

For over a hundred years, humanity has lived in fear of the monsters that roam the streets, lurking in the drains below. Women and their daughters hide, protected in their homes, while men take their sons through the world, teaching them the responsibilities of having a family to feed and dangers to avoid. No one leaves the home unless it's essential, and most of the world prefers it that way. Until one girl spends her days perched on her window seat, looking down at the world below and dreaming of a different life. Her eyes are always drawn to the dark, ominous drains in the street, the ones that often blink open to swallow and person whole. One day, that person is her little brother, snatched right in front of her from their arms of their father and gone forever. When a person is snatched, they never return, and life goes on without them. But she can't accept that. Breaking all the rules, all the things she's ever known, she braves the world outside her little townhouse and goes on a mission into the darkness to find her brother. Only, it's soon her that becomes the one lost to the drains. To survive she must rediscover her world, and in the process, rediscover herself. She will be reunited with old friends, gain new ones, find out deeper secrets about her past than she ever could have imagined, and learn that the world is even more corrupt than she always thought. *** This story contains sexist ideology, mention of cheating, some gruesome scenes, and a whole lot of monsters and darkness. It isn't overly mature... there isn't much explicit language or sexual scenes, but there is a bit of violence, so just keep that in mind... and despite all that negativity, ENJOY!

Innocent: Spencer Reid ✔️ by SpencerReidsOwnWh0re

She's worked with two notorious killers for years, but now she's in an interrogation room while the team at the BAU try to grill information out of her. Where are they? Why did you do it? Why do you kill like that? Why do you spend so long with your victims and most importantly - why were you so easy to find? Spencer's on the other side of the mirror, observing her body language. She doesn't flinch, her eyes don't twitch or move from the desk but she's trying to hide one thing - her index finger rapidly tapping against her thigh. It doesn't take a genius to see her brows furrow a fraction of an inch when she says one sentence. "They are my family." She's a liar. A thief. A murderer. But shes innocent. And they just gave her a job. ••••• On the cover, it says 'Spencerreidsgirlf'. It was my old username which I can't be arsed to change because I like the cover, and I think it's getting my fanfic attention so...enjoy!

Rimelion: The Exploiter by MarekSusicky

What is reality? I was John-now Charlie, a woman with a VR game tester's cunning and a professional whiskey enthusiast's attitude. But then AIs have risen, and my job evaporated faster than last night's drink. Just when I hit rock bottom, this punk kid-barely old enough to shave-dropped a bombshell: "Reality's just a simulation." Sure, buddy. I laughed it off. Until I woke up twenty years in the past. Now, thanks to a hacking mishap, I'm a regular girl in reality-with a debt and an attitude-navigating Rimelion, the VR game I once mastered, as Charlie, an elven priestess with more than a few tricks up her sleeve. Seriously though, fighting in high heels? Will I claw my way up the nobility ladder? Dominate the rankings? Outwit the government and their plans to exploit us all? Maybe. But something's off. The game feels too real. My memories don't line up, and everyone has their own version of what's true. Simulation? Reality? The lines are a blur-and I'm stuck in the middle. If I want to stop a dystopian future, I'll need allies, both in-game and out. Oh, and avoid ticking off the AIs hunting me for bending the rules. Survival's a long shot-but I was never one to play fair anyway. *** What to expect: - Light LitRPG story with an emphasis on strategy and world-building - First-person perspective (and occasional close third POVs) - A witty protagonist with a conversational sarcastic, humorous and often self-deprecating voice - A sci-fi world with mysteries sprinkled with fantasy elements - A rich game world system with kingdoms, rules, exploits, and challenges - Supporting characters with personal goals Schedule: * Posting on RoyalRoad and Scribblehub, here after bulk is done

Reckless Road by reckless_carm

What happens when you take the city girl and move her to the country? That's currently the situation that Elizabeth or Liz for short is facing. Her dad just died and her mom was seriously in a mid-life crisis which consisted of her mother thinking it would be a good idea to move back to her small hometown in the middle of hillbilly central to live in the house her grandma had left them in her will when she passed. Could Liz handle the new move, and leaving behind her glorious lifestyle and friends. The city was her home, how would she deal with fields and stars instead of tall buildings and lights. What would happen when the small towns champion bullrider took an interest in her, would she let all her walls she has spent her whole life building come down and let herself fall for him, or will she ignore him and do everything in her power to get back to her city of lights. Seriously this book is so much better than my lame description of it.
