"That's not my shadow, it's my darkness"

Evelyn De'luca, she reads the rules before breaking them. 

A fifteen year old girl, who had seen the worst of humanity yet she survives everyday of living. She never desired anything except freedom, which she never got, and choices she never made. Surviving to the mother who lives on drugs and then surviving the dark years gifted by her mother had made her into something, she couldn't be recognised as her own. 

There's so many scars and secrets she wears on her skin, a secret monster which people fear. She just smiles when people say monsters do not exist, it's a myth but to her? They exist. How does she know that? It's because she is the one.

Join the journey of Evelyn De'luca, how she found her family and how she'll hunt down those demons dancing in shadows. 


Beautifully destroyed

“Do you think burgers and fries are cursed for me?” I asked Xavier, popping another fry into my mouth. The salty crunch didn’t quite distract me from the unease settled in my chest. 


Xavier shot me a unsure glance before returning his focus to the road. “Why do you think so?” His brows knitted together, forming that familiar cute frown of his. 


“The first time we got burgers and fries, we were attacked,” I mused matter-of-factly. His jaw tightened, his hands gripping the wheel a little harder at the reminder. “The second time, we ended up in prison. And now? Who knows what’s waiting for us.” I shrugged, finishing the last bite of my burger. It tasted fine, but my stomach twisted with suspicion. 


He hummed in response, his mind clearly elsewhere. His gaze flicked to the rearview mirror, then back to the road. 


When we had reached the café, Xavier’s phone buzzed with a call from Dad.
