Never Trust A Shadow After Dark

WSA 2025 entry. Lady Melisandre ‘Lisa’ Belmont was a young, French beauty wrongfully accused and publicly executed for crimes she did not commit. In this new lifetime she's claimed the body of a beautiful aspiring actress who got fed up with constantly being duped by her conniving manager. The last straw was being forced to marry a complete stranger. Coerced to sign up as a married couple for a reality tv show where contestants vie to win the coveted Shadowhurst legacy. Rumored to be an inheritance worth billions that was left behind by the elderly recluse Eleanor Shadowhurst. What might be an ideal situation for the other women is a nightmare for Lisa who wakes up trapped in a marriage she never wanted. She has no choice but to play along as Lisa can see no way out of the contract which seems pretty ironclad. After reading the contract, she realizes that it may be beneficial as long as the couple doesn't get eliminated before reaching the top ten. Lisa stands a chance to win a lifetime of lucrative endorsement deals & royalties, that can only help boost her career as an actress. Win or lose Lisa will still get paid by her husband the enigmatic and handsome Bane Shadowhurst as long as she does nothing to cause a scandal or get the couple disqualified early. His main stipulation is that Lisa pretends to be in love with Bane. They must awkwardly overcome their differences and live with other competing couples on a sprawling, isolated estate located on an island not found on any map. Every need is met, every comfort is provided, even the security of the mansion is world renown for its defense. All of these couples have secrets and are fleeing from their own personal traumas. It seems like the opportunity of a lifetime until the unthinkable happens. Hysteria grows as suspicious accidents escalate, couples feel their personal safety is threatened as the security system is repeatedly breached. Everything is hush hush, the handlers, the producers and media company can’t be trusted. Life hangs in the balance as the group is slowly cut off from the outside world. An insidious intelligence wants to stop Lisa from leaving the island alive. It will stop at nothing to dominate Lisa against her will, invoke terror and consume her soul. Only true love can overcome the insidious evil and save their souls. Lisa will just have to search her heart before it's too late and never trust a shadow after dark.

Finding Him (BxB+)

Kalypso "Kali" Brunn was searching. He was trying to find someone he once knew well, someone he'd lost without even realizing. Kali needed the man who could wholeheartedly love himself and the company of others yet live happily, even alone. That someone wouldn't need another leading their life, completely shaping every thought he had, each action he performed, and the emotions he'd felt. He simply had to see that man's lost smile once more, a smile so true and pure, and he believed the Black Manor was the best place to look. It was the perfect home for Kali to find himself again. A peaceful, private, and honest(deceptively so) abode for him to relax and heal in. It seemingly had the most perfect conditions. The only downside of the new arrangement would be that he's yet to shake off his loneliness. He's determined to get along with his new housemates, but it's proven to be hard, especially as half of them blatantly ignore him and the other half downright hate his mere presence. But who's to say the future won't change? Perhaps his clumsy, self-deprecating ways will finally garner him some much-needed attention. Maybe they'll see just how much he needs someone to stand by him, even if he happens to claim otherwise for pride's sake... Or suppose they could continue to ignore him until he stays forever stuck in his regrettable past. Kali doesn't want to think about the 'scumbag' he ran away from or the friends that hurt him. They didn't deserve his tears any more than he deserved the emotional turmoil he'd suffered through.
