    Summary

    After witnessing a brutal killing in a dim alleyway, you become the only known witness to something the police have almost no leads on. with no evidence beyond your words, you are sent home to return to a life that, unknown to you, will never be the same again.
    As fate would have it, the alley wasn't the end of it.
    Objects began to become misplaced, windows are mysteriously left ajar, and sounds you know no rodent could possibly be making are haunting your home.
    Whatever you saw that night... it followed you.
    It's learned your routines, your patterns, all without needing sight to follow you.
    fear becomes constant. Awareness becomes obsession. And as the line between predator and prey begins to blur., you are forced to confront the possibility you were never just a witness.
    You've been noticed.
    And he's seemed to have taken a liking to you.

    Summary

    Had you been a spectator or simply not been out of your senses, the gory sight would have put you off. You’d dug into your flesh so deep, red droplets had been forming tiny pools on the pale marble floor of your kitchen, several layers of coagulated blood gathering underneath your fingernails.

    Yet the only sensation you could focus on was the utter fucking misery. The heavy weight in your stomach, the beast inside your chest that was massaging its fangs into your lungs as you choked out a raw sob. The passive sensation of your stinging wounds was the only thing stopping it from tightening its grip, the only thing that could drown out any of the feelings and emotions swirling through your organs.

    Perhaps you could have gone on like this for hours, almost as if you were entranced, had you been left undisturbed. But you were not alone. You are not uncared for.

    Summary

    Hiraeth: The feeling of homesickness for a home you can never return to, or never existed.

    You were simply at the wrong place at the wrong time. You weren't supposed to see a figure hunched over a body, picking away at the corpse. No matter how hard you try, you cannot get that soulless blue mask out of your mind. With its head turned towards you, it only held its boney finger to its mask in a hushed manner before it ran off. You knew you had to keep quiet, but was it really the right choice?

     

    Please read the first chapter and the tags carefully before continuing.

    Summary

    Y/N is popular. Bright, loud, and adored, no matter where she is on campus. Every building, every hallway, every fucking classroom, there’s always someone laughing with her, leaning too close, wanting her attention.

    Jack hates it. Hates them. Hates how easily she gives pieces of herself to everyone around her… except him.

    She doesn’t even know he exists. But that doesn’t matter. He knows her laugh. Her friends. Her habits. Her scent. He’s broken into her dorm room more times than he could count. He’s memorized the creak in her floorboards. He’s touched her clothes, her books, her jewelry. And when she was finally still, asleep in her bed… he touched her, too.

    Because the second she crossed him on the sidewalk, just casually as any other person would, it was over. Jack wanted to be inside her life. Inside her home. Inside her.

    And when the door finally locks behind them…
    it will already be too late.
