"You are not heartless no you have a heart but it is full of darkness overflowing and dripping onto the lives of everyone else"
I says finally recognizing the demon behind the innocent smile she always wore. She took a step towards me looking straight into my eyes she was smiling it wasn't cruel it wasn't victorious it was the smile of a person who was looking in a mirror and loved exactly what she saw

She says and at that moment I realized I wasn't the only monster in the room

Okay, I can't help myself. Here you go pookies >>

When I looked out my window, all I could see was the darkness and its twinkling stars, faintly reflected in the puddles on the asphalt. Everything was quiet; only the rain and the occasional passing cars broke the stillness of the night. A soft beep made me look away; it was coming from my coffee machine. So I went back to the counter and took the warm cup in my hands. I blew on the surface to cool the hot drink a little before taking a sip. The coffee flowed down my throat with a pleasant warmth, a perfect contrast to the cold that was spreading outside. Before I knew it, the cup was empty, so I put it in the sink. I jumped for a moment when the doorbell suddenly rang—at this hour?
I walked through the hallway, slightly hesitant, to get to the door. I slowly opened it and froze... My enemy was kneeling before me.
His white shirt was torn and soaked with bloodstains, and his black trousers were stained with dirt. He looked up at me through half-closed eyelids, raindrops trickling from his ash-black hair down his face, which was adorned with bloody scars. I was so shocked by the sight that I didn't even notice I had put a hand over my mouth. "Shira... you have to help me." The words came out of his mouth like poison, but he still sounded vulnerable. I swallowed my shock and helped him into the house. Before I dragged him into the living room and laid him on the sofa, I quickly closed the door. My thoughts were racing, and I could barely think straight, but still clear enough to get a grip on the situation. I quickly ran into the bathroom and grabbed my first-aid kit from one of the shelves above the sink. I went back to Zane, who was still half-conscious on my sofa, carrying the box. I knelt in front of the sofa and gestured for him to sit up. As he sat up, I took out a bottle of disinfectant and a cloth. "This is going to sting for a second," I said, squeezing the liquid onto the cloth.
He mumbled something unintelligible before I began dabbing an open wound on his arm. A loud hiss filled the room as the disinfectant hit his injured arm. His arm twitched, but I held it gently so he couldn't pull it away. A deep, dangerous growl escaped his throat beneath my grasp.
"I can let you bleed to death right here," I said sharply, looking at him warningly. His dark, deep blue eyes met mine, flashing with a mixture of anger and vulnerability. With a contemptuous snort, he looked away and finally tried to stay still. With a satisfied nod, I continued my work. Once I had finished disinfecting his arms, I wrapped a pressure bandage around the wounds.
"What even happened to make you... look like this?" I asked after a while, breaking the silence between us. "That... is none of your business," he mumbled to himself as he watched me bandage him. "Well, oddly enough, I'm the one treating your wounds right now; I should know where they came from." When I finished bandaging, I picked up the disinfectant wipe again. He didn't respond, just avoided my gaze and let me continue. I dabbed some scratches on his neck and moved on to the scars on his face. I worked intently as his gaze rested on me once more. His jaw muscles twitched slightly with each dab, and his eyes narrowed a little, as if he were suspicious.
"Don't worry, I'm just helping... like you wanted." I said, under his gaze. "You could have just left me standing outside, then at least you would have been rid of me." A mischievous smile flickered across my lips at his words. "I could have done that, yes." For a moment, confusion flickered in his eyes, but he quickly hid it. "And why didn't you?"

My name is Abbie Emmons I teach writers how to make their stories matter by harnessing the power and psychology of storytelling, transforming their ideas into a masterpiece, and creating a lifestyle that makes their author dreams come true.

Story isn’t about “what happens” — it’s about how what happens affects and transforms the characters. I believe that there is an exact science (a recipe, if you will) behind a perfect story. And if you know what ingredients you need, you can create your own perfect story with ease and confidence. That’s what we talk about every week on this channel – and if it’s something you’re into, be sure to subscribe and join this community!

I loveee this playlist so much. They have such an epic movie score like vibe ♄ ugh yes

It should be easy. Slid the circus of litgh and end the darkness. Yet, my body stops ritgh in front of him. The eyes of a predator, a hunter. Bloody red glance straitgh to my heart.
"Wainting for a order, Velerie?" Is just what it cost to bring hate to my soul. Or was this burning feeling, that warm my being, what all call... love?
"I hate you" My own throat couln'dt reconise my voice, thin, fragile.. weak.
"I had forgot.." He's hands wait short-distance against my face "How insanely beauty is this so called hatefull gaze."
My breath runs from my lugs. I missed this sound, his deep...cold and invinting voice.
"But we both know i'll get out of here alive" He said. "Cause.. destroy me would be like break a mirror."
A step of him in front. Two step back of me.
"After all, we're the same."
I din't answer him. Not out of fear.. but, out of reason; Neilan knows me better than anyone, and most because he's ritgh. We both the same.

"The only diference is that i don't hide my uglyness with a mask of good girl."

I'm starting to write a sequel to a book I wrote, and during the middle of 'Toxic,' I got a toxic idea where the bisexual protagonist hooks up with the lesbian enemy, who has a girlfriend, but they don't become a couple. The boyfriends get into an argument, split, and during a rumble, the protagonist sees his ex losing against someone twice his size, and so he runs over and tackles the guy. Half of this I thought of while typing, which was STILL in 'Toxic'

"She loved the dark, the storm, the pain, the suffering. She found beauty in broken glass and dying flowers, in the way moonlight made scars look like veins of silver. She let fear and heartbreak fuel her desire to live. I stared at her as I realized...

She could love even who God himself had forsaken."

And so, against his own will, he embraced her in his arms. He tangled his fingers in her hair, inhaling her scent possessively.
He whispered lowly in her ears, "I will protect you... from them, from this world — even from myself."

“I’ll never stop k!lling,” he said gently. “But I could k!ll for you, Lillian. There’s a difference.”

His voice wrapped around her in this dream realm, physically brushing against her skin, caressing her.

“I could feed on the ones who hurt others. The ones you want to destroy anyway. Give me the word,” he said, lifting her chin with one finger, “and I’ll turn this curse of yours into a blessing. It’s the only thing I can offer in compromise, pet.” ---Cursed and Wanted by Amber Vale

Prologue: Broken Whispers

They said the bridge collapsed because of destiny.
But destiny
 was never that cruel.

On 12th November 2025, a bright afternoon turned into a graveyard of dreams.
A bridge that promised to connect lives, ended up crushing them.
Including his family.
Including him.

He died with a question frozen on his lips — "Why?"
And somewhere, in the corner of the same broken city, a girl survived.
Clumsy, chaotic, but carrying a heart bigger than the empire she refused to inherit.

Myra Kapoor — who should have died that day — lived.
And in the cracked whispers of unfinished goodbyes, he mistook survival for betrayal.
Hatred was supposed to guide him.
But love had different plans.

Their worlds collided not on a dark night, but on an afternoon when she screamed at a flying notebook in her living room —
"Who the hell throws stationery like it's a Marvel movie?!"
He, invisible but fuming, wanted to scare her.
She, confused but sassy, threw a slipper back into thin air.
And he? For the first time in his afterlife, forgot why he was angry.

Now, a ghost lost in revenge

And a girl lost in dreams

Were about to collide.

And when they do —
Will broken souls heal each other?
Or break each other all over again?

After all,
Some ghosts don't haunt places.
They haunt hearts.

O amargor da angĂșstia e da dor latejante impregnava minha boca, denso e metĂĄlico. O pulsar febril em minhas veias reverberava atĂ© o coração — onde mais doĂ­a, onde a dor e a paixĂŁo se entrelaçavam em um fogo ardente, sufocando-me.
Gotas carmesins manchavam minha pele traçando caminhos irregulares sobre meus dedos trĂȘmulos. O cheiro ferroso pairava no ar, impregnando-se em minha respiração ofegante. Cada batida do coração era um lamento, um eco de tudo que perdi e de tudo que ainda queimava dentro de mim.
Os ecos de sua voz ainda dançavam em minha mente, misturando-se ao silĂȘncio cruel que agora nos separava. Meu corpo tremia, nĂŁo apenas pelo frio da noite, mas pelo vazio que se instalava, consumindo-me.
Fecho os olhos. O passado e o presente se fundem, e por um instante, quase posso sentir sua pele quente contra a minha, seu toque ardente, sua presença que um dia foi tão minha.
E entĂŁo, percebo: algumas batalhas nĂŁo terminam com a lĂąmina. Algumas nos perseguem para sempre, gravadas em carne, alma e memĂłria.
Abro os olhos e tudo o que resta Ă© o sangue: rubro, quente, impiedoso. O sangue do homem que matei. O mesmo sangue que antes incendiava meu Ă­ntimo com desejo e ĂȘxtase... agora escorre.
Não hå vitória nesta guerra. Não hå redenção nesta escolha. Apenas o peso insuportåvel de um amor que sangra até o fim.
Caio de joelhos ao seu lado, o gosto amargo da perda envenenando meu peito.
Meu maior inimigo.
Meu mais profundo amor.
Minha fortaleza, e agora minha ruĂ­na, estava morto pela minha lĂąmina prateada. A mesma lĂąmina que ele colocou em minhas mĂŁos naquela noite - entre sussurros e promessas - quando nossos corpos se encontraram pela primeira vez.
Um presente. Um símbolo. Um laço entre nós.
Minhas mĂŁos vacilam, pressionando o peito que antes vibrava sob meus toques e que arquejava ao som do meu nome, ja nao vibravam mais.
Eu o amava... E ainda assim fui eu quem pĂŽs fim a tudo.
Não importa quanto tempo passe, quanta distùncia eu percorra, quanta culpa eu carregue... meu coração sempre baterå ao ritmo do nome que agora repousa nos meus låbios.
Morto pela minha lĂąmina.
Morto pelo meu amor.

Is this fire or nah? it's for my book. "With adrenaline coursing through their veins, they turned and fled, pursued by the dark creatures that seemed to materialize out of the very darkness itself. Desperate and disoriented, they raced toward the entrance, the sounds of their pursuers growing louder with each passing moment. Just as they reached the threshold, a cold hand grasped one of the boys, pulling him back into the darkness with a blood-curdling scream."

The storm raged against the glass, thunder rolling in waves that rattled the walls. But inside, the true storm was silent, waiting.

She stood before him, fire in her veins, fury burning behind her eyes. Isla Sterling. The last remnant of a shattered legacy. The woman who had sworn to destroy him.

And yet, she was the one trapped.

Killian Vale leaned back in his chair, the picture of control, his fingers tapping idly against the armrest. The dim glow of the chandelier caught the sharp angles of his face—his expression unreadable, his presence suffocating.

“Say it.”

The command slithered through the air, dark and unyielding.

Isla’s jaw clenched. “Go to hell.”

Killian exhaled a slow breath, amused. “You first.”

He stood, the movement measured, deliberate—like a beast stretching before a kill. The space between them evaporated in seconds, and then he was there, too close, the scent of cedar and sin wrapping around her like a noose.

She didn’t move. Wouldn’t.

He tilted his head. “Still pretending you’re not afraid of me?”

Her nails bit into her palms. “I’m not.”

His lips curled—not in a smirk, but in something colder, something that belonged to a man who had never needed to raise his voice to be obeyed.

“No?” His fingers ghosted up her arm, slow and taunting, his touch barely there. “Then why are you shaking?”

Isla hated him. Hated him.

For everything he had taken. For everything he had ruined.

And yet, her body betrayed her. The fine tremor in her breath. The way her pulse hammered against her throat.

Killian saw it all.

And worse—he liked it.

“Let me go,” she bit out, the words sharp as glass.

He didn’t.

Instead, his fingers traced higher, brushing the curve of her neck, his touch light as silk. She swallowed hard, but he didn’t stop, didn’t relent.

“You want to kill me,” he murmured, his voice like dark honey, seeping into her bones. “So do it.”

Her breath caught.

Killian leaned in, his lips grazing the shell of her ear. “Or is the hate you feel for me
 the only thing keeping you alive?”

Her chest heaved, anger and something far deadlier tangling in her ribs. She could stab him. She could end this war with a single move.

But she didn’t move.

Didn’t breathe.

Didn’t look away when he finally pulled back, gaze locked onto hers like a wolf watching its prey break.

Then—slowly, purposefully—he took her wrist and placed a dagger in her hand. His dagger. The blade still warm from his touch.

The weight of it burned.

“Go on,” he whispered.

Isla’s fingers curled around the hilt.

And Killian smiled.

Because they both knew she wouldn’t do it.

Not yet.

Not until the line between hate and something far more dangerous had blurred beyond recognition.

And by then—

It would already be too late.
