We Live We Love We Lie

All that we Buried

The cruelest part of time is that it never waits for anyone. It shatters, it wounds us and then heals us. It did the same for me, but did it really? Just as I thought I had evolved, distinguished, improved, I was pulled back to where it all began. Johnathan Liang hadn’t changed at all either. Same sharp gaze, same unreadable expression. Same man who once shattered me without a second thought. I met his eyes, and for a moment, I wondered if he saw it—the wreckage he left behind, the girl who once begged for his love had now changed. So, I smiled. Easy, effortless, like I had never bled for him. I watched his jaw tighten, his fingers curl ever so slightly. He sensed it, didn’t he? The forgiveness that wasn’t real. Because I had moved on. I had won. So, why did seeing him still feel like losing? And why was my life putting me through the same again? To love him all over again was impossible! I would never do that, at-least not until he was on his knees for me. *** She was a nightmare, like the ones in childhood. The ones that seem to have gone away, until they appear all over again one night. A secret of past and the present only you know. I for a second thought she’d changed when I laid eyes on her—because for the first time, I wasn’t sure if I hated her or wanted to know what had made her so untouchable. Elena Zhao was putting a great mask, as if she did not care about my presence. In-fact she was calm and poised--too calm and too poised that it irritated me. And I would have been a fool to neglect the resent that lingered beneath her stare despite her small smile. I had not chosen her in the past, I would not want to. But the circles life had put me in, it no longer mattered who I had to spend the rest of it with. Elena wasn't an exception right? There was no reason for her or anyone else to get under my skin. But damn it, she bugged me, like an itch creeping my skin which I couldn't seem to reach. (SPICY, DARK, ROMANTIC, INTENSE, TENSION GUARANTEED, CHEMISTRY, POWERCOUPLE) ************ [NO CLICHES & NO LONG BORING CHAPTERS GUARANTEED] Rewritten completely by me in 2025 march! I started in 2020 so, makes sense if the story isn't as thrilling. I have tried not to take away the original Idea. Good luck and have a great read. Your author- Prabhleen/Theunknownsoul

We are the fear

Hello everyone. I'm the creator of the horror short story collection *We Are the Fear*. For me, creating this work is like embarking on an exciting journey to explore the dark corners deep within the human soul. It's also a fantastical adventure of translating the thrilling inspirations surging in my heart into words. For a long time, the horror genre has had an irresistible appeal to me. The unknown and dangers lurking beneath the surface of daily life always stir up my boundless imagination. Many moments in life, whether it's the eerie shadow cast by an ancient building or the sudden strange sounds in the dead of night, can become the sparks for my creation, lighting the fuse of one terrifying story after another. I'm enthusiastic about excavating the most hidden and fragile parts of human nature. In my opinion, the complexity of human nature is an inexhaustible wellspring for horror stories. Everyone has seeds of fear within. It could be the fear of loneliness, the worry about loss, or the awe of unknown forces. I attempt to amplify these emotions in my works, placing them in extreme situations to showcase the diverse reactions of human nature in the face of fear. Each story in *We Are the Fear* is a painstakingly crafted crystallization of horror. I'm dedicated to creating an atmosphere that can make readers' hearts pound and send chills down their spines. Starting with environmental descriptions, I use delicate strokes to sketch out gloomy scenes, enabling readers to feel as if they're on the scene and experience the chilling sensation that rushes towards them. Then, I delve into the characters' inner worlds, depicting their psychological changes when confronted with horror, so that readers can truly empathize with the characters' fear and despair. When it comes to the narrative rhythm, I strive to achieve a proper balance. I artfully set suspense, keeping readers in a state of high tension and curiosity throughout the reading process, eager to uncover the mystery. And at appropriate times, I slow down the pace, giving readers a brief moment of respite while inadvertently planting new foreshadows to prepare for the next onslaught of fear. I hope this book can bring readers an ultimate horror experience. While reading, they can feel the excitement of an adrenaline rush, and after closing the book, they can sink into profound contemplation about human nature and the unknown. *We Are the Fear* is not merely a collection of stories; it's a testament to my love and pursuit of horror literature. I hope it can touch the unique perception of horror deep within each reader's heart.
