Raw Stories

Ethan Cole is the kind of man who shows up. For his family. For his responsibilities. For the life he's built. So when something begins to feel off, he ignores it. At first. But the distance grows. Small moments slip through his fingers. Conversations blur. Reactions don't come when they should. And the man he sees himself as begins to feel just out of reach. His wife notices. His son feels it. And Ethan is left trying to hold together a life that's quietly unraveling. As buried pieces of his past begin to surface, he's forced to confront something he's never truly faced. Not just what's happening to him-but why. Because the hardest truth isn't that something is wrong. It's that it's always been there. What Lurks Beneath is a powerful story of identity, trauma, and the cost of disconnection-and what it takes to come back from the edge when everything you love is on the line.

Continuation of Book 1, Do read it before coming here.. Thank you!! 😊

I create my own storyline for wwe superstars (w/ my own rosters) Fyi, This solely for MY entertainment but if YOU enjoy it too then that's also a plus for ME.

What happens when you find peace amidst chaos... in a person you were never meant to choose? A marriage arranged by families. A connection that feels anything but accidental. Was it ever truly arranged... or always destined? Vihaan Singh Rathore-an ex-army officer. An introvert who has faced wars at the borders, conquered enemies... yet remains defeated by the chaos within himself. Niyaati Mehra-a psychologist and a professor. Calm, composed, and perceptive yet chaotic. Someone who understands minds... yet carries a childhood lost to responsibilities, still holding onto the innocence in her heart. Two strangers. Two broken silences. One unexpected bond. In a relationship built on formality, secrets begin to surface, walls begin to crack, and emotions refuse to stay controlled. Will they be able to heal each other... or will their unspoken truths tear them apart?

She comes home believing it's the same night she left-bruised, shaken, asking about butter and planning a shower-only to find a house that feels older, quieter, wrong. Her family looks at her like she might vanish if they breathe too hard. Slowly, unbearably, the truth emerges: she has been dead for five years. No one knows how she returned. There is no miracle to explain, no science to cling to-only the wreckage of a life mourned, a family reshaped by loss, and a town that learned how to move on without her. As she tries to understand a world that grieved her and closed the door, her return begins to disturb something deeper beneath the surface-an unseen thread connecting past and present, memory and meaning, drawing in forces that have been watching far longer than anyone realises. The Night Skye Came Home is a quiet, devastating mystery about love that never lets go, grief that changes shape, and what happens when the dead refuse to stay where the world put them.

March 14, 2004, Sunday, -WrestleMania 20 left an image of a gruesomely damaged and severely bloodied man in the middle of the ring, who happened to be the 9-time WWE Undisputed Champion, popularly known as 'ALPHA WOLF' (Xavier Bonifacio Drake, 29, Filipino-American) At that time, the time and world of Xander Bonifacio Drake suddenly halted and came crashing down upon him, as he heard the news of his older brother's death. It was a few minutes after he had just defended his UFC Heavyweight Championship Title for the 4th time against Andrei Arlovski. At the age of 25, he unexpectedly became the sole heir to the massive multibillion-dollar global business empire that his late father (Lance Alexis Drake) founded. He temporarily handed it to his beloved uncle (Lt. General Atticus Drake) and voluntarily decided to be trained under his strict and disciplined guidance. After 6 years, he returned fully invigorated to take over his inherited vast empire and enter the world of WWE with a mysterious persona - PHANTOM WOLF. And as a ghastly vestige of his brother's memory, he'll be haunting all that wickedly schemed the horrendous slaughter of his brother on the night of WrestleMania 20. Will he overcome the impressive feats that his late brother had made by making his own streak of winning gruesome matches and main event championship titles? Or fight plainly not only for himself but also for those who are close and precious to him? Or both? *DISCLAIMER* This is a work of fiction and is for entertainment purposes only.

A mix of weird, emotional, and (sometimes) whimsical short stories that don't always wrap up neatly-but that's the point.

A JESSICA DURU'S POEM

These writings come from somewhere real. Whether memory, emotion, or something I've never admitted out loud. Some of these moments happened, some were only felt, and some are truths I'm still trying to understand. I won't tell you which is which. I just write what lingers, what pulls, what refuses to leave me alone.

kassia mae calaway is really that diva and basically the shields girl but i won't spoil it. you're going to have to open this book up and find out. (oc x dean ambrose/jonathan good)

The most beloved Kpop idol in the world has loved one woman for thirteen years-silently, desperately, with a devotion that bordered on madness. When a predator threatened her, he struck back in secret, but a lie spiraled out of control, she left and everything they have got destroyed. He stalked her. He surveilled her. He cornered her in a soundproof room and confessed the ugly, feral truth: "I'd burn the industry down for you in cold blood." Now she must decide if a love this fierce can be trusted-or if it will consume them both. This is a raw, intense, dramatic descent into obsession, betrayal, and the long, brutal climb back to something that might finally be called love. °°°DISCLAIMER°°° ▪︎ Whole story is based on Jungkook's pov 🔥 ▪︎ As for the name of the female lead, I used my Wattpad ID name, because I am delulu, I love myself, and I am factually & unapologitically a simp & a hoe for Jungkook 😌 ▪︎ The story is written with the help of AI, so all the bad, weird, repetitive, cringe, annoying, inconsistent parts are AI's fault 😜🤣

Everard D'Cruz, a white-race Portuguese-origin boy born and raised in Goa, grows up loving India deeply despite never being fully accepted as one of its own. His life takes a devastating turn when he is falsely accused of a brutal crime involving the murder of a police officer's family and the rape of a minor. Framed with planted evidence and no support, Everard is declared guilty and sentenced to an inhuman punishment that destroys his identity and future. Just when everything seems over, he is secretly rescued by India's intelligence agency and brought to New Delhi, where National Security Advisor Amar Rastogi offers him a second chance-on one condition. Everard must sacrifice his identity completely and transform into Evelyn D'Cruz to serve a top-secret mission for the nation. With no other choice, he agrees, beginning a life-altering journey of physical and psychological transformation. Mission "Lady Dhurandhar" sends Evelyn to Portugal and then to Wuhan, China, to infiltrate the world of virology and uncover a conspiracy involving a man-made pandemic. Her target is Dr. Adam Costa, a Portuguese scientist unknowingly connected to the project. Using intelligence and honeytrapping, Evelyn gains his trust, but their connection turns real. When her truth is exposed, Adam chooses to stand by her, and together they risk everything to secure critical information about the virus and its antidote. After escaping China, Evelyn hands over the data to Indian authorities and begins a new life with Adam in Portugal. Soon after, the pandemic strikes the world-but India stands prepared because of her sacrifice. From a condemned criminal to a silent savior, Evelyn's journey is one of identity, courage, love, and sacrifice-proving that some heroes remain unknown, yet change the fate of millions forever.

The boy every camera follows. The man who has everything-except someone who sees him beyond the fame. Then he meets her. She doesn't care who he is. She doesn't stay long enough to be known. And somehow... that's exactly what makes him fall. Hard.

A life crafted from small moments, quiet promises, and a connection that doesn't depend on everything falling perfectly into place. As they draw closer to what feels like home, they're forced to confront what it truly means to hold onto love when their future remains uncertain. This is a story about connection, memory, and the courage to stay even when staying is the hardest thing to do. - ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
