Gaslight Stories

For anyone who has ever worked in a place where things didn't make sense... In a company where perception matters more than truth, one man controls the narrative - and one woman becomes the story.

"Sin wears silk and smiles." In the glittering decay of nineteenth-century Europe, one woman trades her soul for freedom-and finds herself forever bound to the Devil who grants it. From the gilded palaces of France to the fog-choked streets of London, Jeanette Rouge follows the rise, fall, and rebirth of a courtesan turned immortal hunter. Once a pawn of kings, Jeanette signs the Scarlet Contract to escape her ruin, only to awaken in a world where demons walk among the desperate and angels sell indulgence by the ounce. As she crosses paths with an enigmatic butler, a noble family cloaked in mirrors, and the shadow of a killer who bleeds cities dry, Jeanette learns that desire can damn as surely as sin-and that redemption may demand a deeper surrender. A tale of beauty, vengeance, and the price of eternity, Jeanette Rouge unfolds across five acts of blood and velvet: The Scarlet Contract. The Devil in Black and Crimson. Mirrors and Monsters. The Sins We Serve. Rouge Eternal.

People say," Truth is to be sought today or tomorrow". Nevertheless how much truth is too much truth? "Once there was a scholar who was wise yet very scared of death. One day she came across a castle that was immense yet empty. There she met a boy who wore a disguise, he only came to look for truth. The boy required help from the wise scholar but she was cowardly even so they came to an agreement and set for a great expedition to find the truth. They looked for truth everywhere, in every nook and cranny still they couldn't grasp. But truth was close to them so close that they didn't even notice. The scholar was tired and homesick but the boy was far too ambitious to stop. Soon enough truth revealed on its own and they were terrified of it. The truth they were looking for was ugly, tainted, and sinister. So unable to accept it they tried to bury the truth whole. But they failed and truth grew furious upon them so he killed the scholar and made the boy unable to interpret reality." Conclusion : Never look for truth more than necessary. It wasn't fate , it was fault. A fault in stars . Summer, a girl always terrified at the sight of ruining her life. All she wanted for herself was her life to remain same. Rayburn, he was a bit of a liar. More like his job required it. Lying was his thing. But then again there was one more thing in life it was an obsession with truth. But Ryhs.....What about Ryhs? He was innocent. Then why was there blood in his hand? Who tainted him? Was it Summer? Was it Rayburn? Let's look for truth

A forgotten village on the Cornish coast. A glass that sings to the sea. And two seekers drawn by its call. Kotallo, a soldier bound to the Silver Twilight Lodge, is sent to claim the artifact for those who remade him. Aloy, an archaeologist and heir to forbidden knowledge, follows her own path to uncover what should remain buried. In the mist between them lies the question: will they face the song together... or against each other?

A story of family, death- and forgiveness. A story of being gaslit.

Hmmmm

Jeon jeongguk is a golden child. Or so is what his mother says every time he fulfills his parents' expectations. But this time, Jeongguk has decided to follow his hyungs' steps from Busan to Seoul for his new university life, much to his parents' disapproval. Jeongguk believes he is finally en route to regaining the control over his life, away from his overbearing parents. Kim Taehyung is quiet, introverted, a good observer and an even better friend. He does not feel like a good boyfriend, though. Taehyung can feel his relationship slipping through his fingers and although he does everything he can to make it right, it somehow makes everything worse. This is a slow-burn Taekook AU (with a yoonmin side ship) inspired by the song 'Must have been the wind' by Alec Benjamin. Trigger Warnings ⚠: Emotional abuse, manipulation, toxic relationships, verbal and physical abuse, controlling behavior, alcohol misuse, anxiety, and themes of emotional neglect. (The chapters get progressively longer lmao)

A poem on identifying yet feeling powerless towards a manipulator.

She came to disappear. But some stories refuse to stay buried. Emma Pine is charming, elusive, and always in control. In the quiet town of Elmridge, she's the mysterious new girl with a tragic past or so she says. When questions can't be avoided and people go missing, the truth slips further from reach. Ava's story is captivating, addictive, and entirely crafted. She's not just a narrator. She's the author of your trust.

Most of your thoughts revert back to loosing yourself. You need to stop.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MADDY good luck girl <3

A young lad, the windshield of your broken-down car, and screams of anguish. you can't escape. he is coming.

She doesn't remember who she is. But everyone around her remembers who she's supposed to be. Divisha Rathore wakes up in a hospital with no past, no scars, no truth-only silence, and eyes that won't stop watching. The deeper she digs, the more the world bends: faces shift, memories glitch, and identities blur. What if your mind wasn't yours? What if you weren't yours? This isn't a story of recovery. It's a story of unraveling.
