Kurapika Buries Uvogin

The Mask Never Slips

The Mask Never Slips In a world where morality is blurred, Shiva navigates the dark underbelly of crime while concealing the unbearable weight of his own existence. Emotionally detached yet deeply wounded, he wears a mask of indifference, suppressing a lifetime of trauma that manifests as relentless physical pain. He is a master manipulator, a deceiver, and a survivor—yet, at his core, he is a man consumed by self-disgust. Despite his hatred for himself, three fragile reasons tether him to life: his love for a girl who barely acknowledges him, his unwavering loyalty to the abusive family that broke him, and the little brother he raised to be everything he could never become. If even one of these reasons crumbles, so will he. As he maneuvers through the chaos of the crime world—both a participant and an outsider—Shiva finds himself drawn into a series of brutal conflicts, each forcing him to confront the contradictions within him. He claims to have no desire to kill, yet death follows in his shadow. He yearns to be understood, yet has perfected the art of deception. He wants to feel something—anything—but every emotion is buried beneath years of carefully constructed lies. When the past he’s tried so hard to bury resurfaces, Shiva’s carefully maintained facade begins to crack. Someone close to him is starting to see through the act. And as the weight of his suffering becomes impossible to contain, he is left with one question: Can he keep holding on, or is the mask he wears the only thing keeping him alive?

THE SHATTERED REALM: FORGOTTEN ECHOES

WSA 2025 Entry What is a man, if not a vessel of hidden truths and whispered deceptions? Beneath the fragile facade lies a labyrinth of secrets—truths buried so deeply they intertwine with the lies we tell ourselves just to survive another day. The masks we wear may fool the world, but they cannot hide the fractures within. Even those we hold closest, the ones we entrust with our hearts, may be the very hands carving unseen wounds into our souls, feeding them to the monsters lurking in the shadows. He was never meant to uncover it. But when fragments of forgotten identities surface and unseen forces move in the shadows, Aramith is thrust into a web of deception, blood, and a history long buried. Worse still, within him stirs an attribute unlike any other—the strongest, yet the most chaotic. A power that bends to no master, a force that threatens to consume him whole. To wield it is to risk destruction; to reject it is to remain powerless. And yet, power alone does not reveal the truth, for blood tells no lies, flowing only when life is claimed, but even its crimson clarity is no guide to the truth. How does one find what is real when their very existence is a fractured mirror, splintered into shards that reflect only distorted glimpses of an identity lost? Each shard offers the promise of clarity, yet together, they form nothing but ruin. To uncover the truth is to face the darkness, and to risk losing what little remains of the self. For in the end, can a man truly hold a reflection if he no longer knows who—or what—he truly is?

The Girl I Buried

When Mara Kline returns to her late grandmother’s remote house in Canada to settle its affairs, she expects dust and silence. Instead, she finds a relic of the past—a rotary phone in the attic that inexplicably rings despite being unplugged. Against her better judgment, she answers. On the other end is Ellie, a frightened girl claiming she is hiding somewhere in the very same house—but in 1999. A masked man with a burlap-covered face and a rusted knife is hunting her. At first, Mara dismisses the calls as a cruel prank or a lingering symptom of her childhood trauma. But soon, reality itself begins to shift. Muddy footprints appear on the hardwood floor when no one is there. Familiar objects rearrange themselves into echoes of her past. A fresh scar forms on her arm, mirroring the injuries Ellie describes in real time. The deeper she digs, the more the house tightens its grip, twisting time and memory until past and present blur into one waking nightmare. As the calls grow more desperate, Mara realizes the masked figure may not be a stranger—it may be something far worse: a manifestation of her father’s grief and rage, shaped by loss and twisted by time. Old diaries appear, filled with entries she doesn’t remember writing. Visions of a childhood she thought she had buried claw their way back into her mind. Trapped in a house that refuses to let go, Mara must unravel the truth before she becomes just another ghost of its history. But even if she breaks the cycle, some echoes never truly fade.

BETIAS THE SUPERNATURAL ACADEMY

Life as the daughter of one of the most feared vampires in the supernatural world should come with perks. Power, wealth, status—I had it all. But all I ever wanted was to be normal. To blend in. To live without my father’s name hanging over my head like a guillotine. So when the chance to attend Betias Academy appeared, I took it. A school filled with supernatural elites—werewolves, vampires, shifters—I figured I could finally disappear into the chaos. No bodyguards breathing down my neck, no constant reminders of the family legacy I never asked for. I wanted normal. I craved boring. Instead, I woke up on my first night with a dead body on my floor. Drew, the only other human in my dorm, murdered. His blood soaking my carpet. No memory of what happened. No alibi. No clue who set me up. And in a school where humans are seen as disposable, I know exactly what’s coming. Not an investigation. Not a trial. Just an execution. Enter Ava—mysterious, sharp-tongued, and way too good at cleaning up crime scenes. She’s the only one willing to help me, but she’s hiding secrets of her own. Together, we have two choices: solve this murder before the Academy buries it—or end up buried ourselves. The deeper we dig, the darker the truth becomes. Someone wanted Drew dead. Someone wanted me to take the fall. And worse—someone is playing a game far more dangerous than I ever realized. Now, I have to survive Bestias Academy long enough to find the real killer. But in a school full of monsters, how do you prove your innocence when everyone already sees you as prey? Prepare for a thrilling ride of sharp wit, deadly secrets, and dangerously hot wolf shifters in this supernatural academy mystery.

All that we Buried

The cruelest part of time is that it never waits for anyone—but somehow, Johnathan Liang hadn’t changed at all. 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. But that girl was long gone. 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 lie beneath my calm. The forgiveness that wasn’t real. Because I had moved on. I had won. So, why did seeing him still feel like losing? ---- I knew she’d changed the second 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. One thing was certain, I had not chosen her in the past, I would not want to. Elena Zhao was no longer the reckless, desperate girl who once threw herself at my feet, blind to the fact that I would never choose her. In-fact she was calm and poised--too calm and too poised that it irritated me. I would have been a fool to neglect the resent that lingered beneath her stare despite her small smile. Love was not something that made sense to me anymore, especially after what I had lost. There was no reason for her or anyone else to get under my skin. But she bugged me, like an itch creeping my skin. (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

Buried Echoes

Maya; Vengeancelis all I have left. Seven years ago, my world was shattered. My twin sister, Mia, was taken from me in a hit-and-run that was never meant to see justice. The man responsible buried the truth, bribed the police, and walked away without a scratch. But I didn't. I died that night. But from the ashes, Diana Ivanova was born. Ruthless. Untouchable. A woman with power, influence, and a single purpose—revenge. Now, I walk among them. The corrupt politicians. The men who destroy lives with a signature on paper. They toast to their success, never realizing I am the blade at their throats, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. And then I see him. Tobi. My childhood rival. The one who was always there—pushing Mia and me, challenging me, irritating me, caring in ways he never admitted. But the Tobi standing before me isn’t the same sharp-tongued boy I once knew. He is colder. Sharper. A man who has already played the game and won. Tobi; She’s hunting someone. I should stay away. I should let her chase whatever ghost she’s after. But I can’t. Because beneath the woman she’s become, I still see her. The girl I once knew. The one who buried her past so deep she doesn’t even realize the truth staring her in the face. She thinks she’s the only one playing this game. She’s wrong. And when the truth comes out about her past, about me, about everything—she’ll have to decide, Will she destroy me? Or will she realize that, in a world built on deception, I’m the only one who has ever truly seen her?
