As the time went by, I grew more anxious by the second. The silence was killing me. How could I let this happen? The tap dripped slowly, each thud of water against marble pushing the limits of stress I experienced like I never thought was even possible. If something didn't happen soon, I was sure I'd punch the nearest wall. My eyes flickered from the timer and to the wall as fears, anxieties and apprehensions began to cloud my mind and pulling my train of thought in various directions causing me to wish I went back to the silence I hated only a moment ago. Everything seemed to stop as the timer went off and a chill shot up my spine. Well, it's now or never.

The Corruption Within Us
WARNING: this book includes blood, manipulation, cursing, and mature topics (not smut please don't think that). Feel free to click off if any of these make you uncomfortable. ~•~ Something about it was so mysterious about this cave, and I wanted to know more. I entered the cave and saw a red crystal sealed in ice. "Woah." I whispered. The crystal glowed and the ice shattered. I jumped back and fell to the ground, watching as the ice broke completely. My eyes widened and I looked at my hands. "Did I do that?" I asked, but before I could answer, I heard a guard shout for backup as they had heard the ice shattering. I quickly jumped up and stashed the crystal in my pocket before leaving. I crept to the cave the following day, putting the crystal back into the remains of the ice pillar. As I walked away, the crystal fell, causing it to break into a million pieces. I jumped at the sudden noise and stumbled backwards, my eyes widening as a black smog formed around the crystal. "No, no, no, no! Frick." I desperately tried to grab the remains of the crystal, causing one to cut my hand. "Ow! Shit." I whispered, looking at my bleeding hand. "Tch, tch, tch, poor child." A demonic voice said. I looked up and saw that the black smog had two red eyes and a wide, sick smile that was dripping with venom. "I- who are you?" I asked, backing up. "The one who can help you out of here." It said, stretching out a hand. I looked it up and down and before I could answer, its hand plunged into my heart, causing me to scream out in pain.

Mortal
I looked down the side of the building. Should I do this? I thought stepping a little farther towards safety. What have I got to lose? No one loves me, I should just stop being a waste of air. I stepped to the very edge of the building. Come on. I couldn't bring myself to just step off. My heart raced, my hair was drenched with sweat. Just do it. I stepped off, sending myself hurtling towards the pavement.Complete
The Orion Legacy
Let me tell you a story of a kingdom that was once the most advanced civilization known to this day, a pinnacle of achievement that still astounds the universe with its grandeur and sophistication. Its twin towers were the centre of all knowledge of the universe, and their luminous rays radiated from the lights at the tip of each tower, guiding all travellers from across time and space back to its main doors. Until the day they arrived, from the shadows and as old as our known universe, we battled with all we had to contain this dark and mysterious life form. Our kingdom was about to fall. Our scientists found a way by creating a wormhole through space to a new world, granting us a chance to save our civilization. But something happened during the process... I was jolted awake to find myself alone, hundreds of years later, and all of those who had been with me gone. It was only after certain events that I discovered my immortality, so I vowed to rebuild the Orion civilization in this new world. One day, against all odds, I met her gaze, a unique gaze that only my wife Lisana had possessed. I later realized that it was her spirit reincarnated, as Kayronian we could only love one person, we were irrevocably drawn to each other regardless of distance and time. We lived happily until her death; many years later on a trip to another continent, I encountered her again, this time as queen of a Nordic people, multiple lives together followed, united by our eternal love and the immeasurable pain of reliving her death over and over again, in total I had to bury her with my own hands 87 times. The last Lisana implored me to break the cycle before it started again. Then the first occurrence happened, somehow they found a way to access this realm, through some rift, However, they were unable to keep their physical form in this world, i must find a way stop to them.Complete![Blood's Ink [Tim Drake love story]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/234004706-256-k569767.jpg)
Blood's Ink [Tim Drake love story]
"I know who you are" I whisper and he freezes. I could hear a soft but nervous chuckle come from his lips. "No you don't." he says ... He spun around and had me pinned against the wall, he was so close that I could see his light blue eyes through his domino mask. He radiated nothing but intimidation and power in his features but I could see past that. In his eyes, he was a whirlpool of fear, worry, and guilt as he stared intensely at my lips before looking into my eyes "...Are you going to tell anyone?" He questioned stiffly "No" I answer simply, honestly, only looking into his eyes everything else was irrelevant to us as he leaned closer [Tim Drake love story] ((Does not follow DC plots))Complete
The Crown Prince {The Unholy Trinity: Book II}
Waking up in my eight-year-old body is... bizarre. To say the least. I lie there for a second, my heart hammering in my chest, feeling like I've been crammed into a too-small suit. It's not just the size of the bed, though that's throwing me off too. The sheets feel too big, the pillows too high. It's me. I'm smaller. Weaker. And-ugh-there's that nagging sensation of being powerless that comes with it. The urge to flip out is immediate, but I force myself to stay calm. Breathe. I've been through worse. It takes a moment, but the memories come flooding back. The ritual. Raven, Constantine, the plan-trapping our consciousness into our younger selves, sending us hurtling back through time to fix everything we screwed up. Guess it worked.Complete
Alice
Warning: What you're about to read is not what you think it is so get your head out of the gutter and stop think that way, YOU SICK LIL FREAK! *cute smile and voice* thank you ^-^ A bolt of pain shot through my body. I could feel myself wanting to twitch and yank away but I force myself not to. Tears fell from my eyes, without really my command. A few seconds later, a wave of pleasure shot all over. This was something I couldn’t enjoy. I wanted so badly to touch him but I promise I wouldn’t move. I don’t know what was worst. The pain or the fact that I can’t touch him. Either way, they were both killing me. How much longer will it be until the torture ends?Complete
The Citizen Soldier (DNF)
!!Trigger warning: suicide, Implied/Referenced Self Harm!! Warnings before sections. . This book is currently discontinued, if I find motivation to finish it it is not in the foreseeable future. . "Trust me." His voice was soft and calming, the way that a good father could be assumed to sound. "This isn't what you want, it never has been and it never will be. Confusion is difficult to work through, but if you just let me help you, I can show you that it can be worked through." He rolled up his sleeve, showing several white streaks across his skin. The other was shocked. "N-no, I'm not good for anything, I'm nothing there's nothing for me." He shook his head many times, holding it in his hands after a bit. "No." "Can I touch you?" The boy who was trying to help this poor soul had approached a few paces. His voice was now quieter, more soft, and still caring. The boy at the bridge took a moment to think, then nodded his approval. The savior gently took the boy's hands delicately in his own and gently pulled the boy back. Well, less of a pull and more of a gentle suggestion. It worked and the boy stumbled down off of the edge. The boy started to cry. How could he be so weak that a boy, the same age as him, who seemed to have the same ideas and hatred toward himself as he, could keep him from stepping off? The other simply gently led him to his vehicle and took out a water bottle out of the backseat. The boy took it and looked at it suspiciously. "It's untampered, look, it's still sealed." Upon seeing this, the boy opened it and took a few sips of water. "Thank you. For the water." The savior smiled. "It's nothing much." He shrugged. "Have a phone? If you want I can put my number in and then you'll always be able to tell someone if you're having a pissy day." Surprisingly enough, the boy agreed. . They would both be around twenty.Complete
