'The girl who ran'
'You know I cannot leave you alone.'
out the deep breath I didn't realise I was holding once Lee Know thankfully realised his tight grip on my shaking body. I tore my gaze away from him as he intimidatingly glared into my glistening [eye coloured] eyes.
I gasped as he abruptly gripped my wrist, swinging the heavy door open and dragging me out. The distorting screams entering my hearing once again, causing me to wince at their loud suffering, the guilt and remorse for the prisoners filling my senses.
A million thoughts of confusion rushed throughout my clouded mind as he dragged me down the long, narrow corridor. I frantically looked around my surroundings, desperate to find out where we were going. I don't recognise any of these corridors, I wonder if I could... no... they'd kill me... but maybe I could just...
My eyes lit up as a very risky but tempting idea came into my head. It was to run. I knew how dangerous it was, but in that moment, all I could think about was the sweet feeling of freedom. Oh fuck it...
Not wasting another second, I harshly pulled my wrist out of his grip, and sprinted down the winding corridor. Sweat pouring down my trembling body as I heard him deafeningly scream at me from behind.
"YOU FUCKING BITCH"
"ONCE I GET MY HANDS ON YOU, I'M GONNA CUT YOUR FUCKING LEGS OFF I SWEAR TO GOD."
"YOU'RE SUCH AN UNGRATEFUL WHORE."
"EVEN AFTER ALL I'VE DONE FOR YOU, YOU TREAT ME LIKE THIS?!"
"I'M GONNA KILL YOU."
Tears streamed down my already tear stained face as I forced my legs to run faster and faster. No turning back now. I began to slightly smile as I heard his shouting get more quiet, and his footsteps getting weaker and weaker.

My almost insane looking smile widened as I completely stopped hearing Minho run or shout. My running began to slow down, turning into a light jog as I began to look into rooms with open doors. Seeing if there was anywhere to get out.
My eyes became as wide as saucers when I saw a balcony on one of the rooms I just assumed it was a bedroom. Without second thought, I rushed into the room, not bothering to look around it at all.
My teary eyes stung from the blinding light from the outside world as I greedily breathed in a deep breath of the fresh air. Placing my hands onto the stone railing of the balcony, I looked down. Thankfully, I was only of the second floor, meaning that I wouldn't be seriously injured.
I took a deep breath to try and reassure myself, before swinging my left leg over the railing, then my right leg. Gripping tightly on the smooth, cracked stone, I slowly lowered myself to a sitting position so that my legs were dangling off of the very edge on the outside of the balcony.
There was a small bush below me, meaning that when I jumped, the bush would hopefully help cushion my fall. I slowly put my hands of the edge of the balcony, and prepared myself to push off the edge. It's okay, you're going to be okay, I reassured myself.
Tightly Squeezing my eyes shut, I pushed my hand off the edge of the balcony, onto the jumble of leaves bellow. Letting out a small yelp as I made impact on the bush, thankfully the cluster of leaves and twigs broke the fall. I laid there for a few second, trying to detangle my arms and legs from the twisted sticks.
I quickly looked around to make sure I was the only one around, and strangely enough, I was the only person there. No guards, no sign of stray kids, nothing. That's odd...

Not giving my suspicions a second thought, I pushed myself off the bush, and began running for my life. I ran into the thick, sheltered forest ahead of me. Stumbling a few times, I delved deeper into the darkened Forrest as the mansion became smaller and smaller, until I couldn't see it at all.
Slowing down to a stop, I placed my hands on my knees as I bent over in exhaustion. I gulped nervously as the dreaded feeling of being watched, I tried my hardest to reassure myself that everything was okay, thinking of every possible logical explanation of why I was feeling this way.
My disheveled body began furiously shaking as I felt a presence behind me...

haired man lazily looked up from his paperwork as the office door was harshly slammed open, revealing a furious, out of breath Minho. Chan rolled his eyes before putting down his sleek pen, using his opposite hand to drag the cigarette away from his lips.
"What do you want now Lee Know?" He questioned with a tiresome sigh, clearly fed up with Minho's behaviour.
Lee know took a few seconds to catch his breath, slightly loosening his black tie in the process, rolling up the sleeves of his shirt to try and generate some coolness through his body.
"It's... it's about... [Name]..." he panted as he closed the door behind him. This caught BangChan's attention as he leaning forward on his desk using his elbow.
"What about her?" He curiously asked as he brought his cigarette back up to his pink lips. "She's... she's escaped... sir..." Minho replied, a hint of anxiety present in his voice.
Bangchan did nothing for several seconds, causing the room to fall into silence. Before he replied in an eerily calm tone. "She did what?"

Psychotic Death Online
(Side Project for now)In a futuristic alternate reality, the creators of nanotech team up with the VR capsule company to create a capsule where one could stay it in for a year at a time before having to leave. These capsules could be use for rehab and even reconstruction! Eventually, Buzzard, the largest gaming company in the world, created a new VRMMO with 99% realism pending the new capsules, of course the rate dropped to 97% with normal capsules and 90% with the old fashioned visor systems. Unfortunately, the new capsules cost $100,000 and not many people can afford them, either way the new game World of Destiny was a hit with over 110 million subscriptions!Meet our tragic MC Feng Jun, an injured psychopath that simply wants to get his next kill. He has no MO, he doesn't even care if what he kills is an insect let alone a person. He just has to kill every once in awhile to scratch his itch. Up til an injury that left him without a leg, he was able to make do simply killing insects as no one cared and he didn't even have to visit any doctors about it. People just thought he hated bugs! But after his injury he has been suck at his home not being able to do anything! Fortunately he is rich and spends most of his time playing MMOs since normal VRMMOs don't work well with his injury as the realism setting always keeps him with only one leg! But what will he do with a new opportunity to rebuild his leg with nanotech? Knowing he has to spend a year in the game minimum for something like this, he sets a goal to insure he doesn't go crazy (er) without having stuff to kill.This is a VRMMO story where the game is closer to zhan long than royal road with a few twists here and there. The world outside of the game is sci fi and has very little impact at least for the first year due to obvious reasons. No gore or explicit sex in this story, if cursing requires a mature tag I will add it later, this story is at best PG-13. Tragedy is for his circumstances and previous life, the game itself isn't tragic at all as it's just a game more or less.(This story will be put out alongside my main story whenever I feel like it for now, no set schedule at this time)

World of Alvarra: Rise of the Vampire Lord
Van was born a dhampir with memories of past lives that plague him. If he does not overcome them, he may face a slow descent into insanity. Growing up in a world where the memories of his past lives, clash with the truth of this strange new world. A world where women outnumber men to a large margin and are in control. Filled with magic, ki, aura, and creatures from other dimensions trying to break into his world to devour it. Will Van survive and thrive and make sense of it all? This is a story where I’m hoping to take some things and put them on its head. Everyone has heard of isekai about now, but has anyone ever really contemplated what it would be like to have voices, visions, or archaic ideas and views swim around a person's mind? We also hear about how the mc’s always gets the harem. But what if that's because there are more women than men and women are somewhat biologically different then the women we know from our world. Imagine a society where anyone can become strong and since there are more women than men, there are more stronger women than stronger men and now apply medieval history and a view that men are lower than women because the goddess made women in her image. And what if, the mc isn’t the only one with memories of past lives, and he meets some people who have been driven insane because of it? This is my first time writing a book and showing it to potential thousands of people. I won’t promise that my work will be good right off the bat. But I'm hoping that, with enough constructive criticism, I can provide an interesting read for all comers and improve to match and exceed the expectations put on me. The image used above does not belong to me. Warning! There is blood, gore, sex, and rape!(not anymore...) I may not be a good writer yet, but I will try to give a more realistic and authentic view of this world. This world and what you know of it will be of the view of the mc. So if something does not make sense to you, it probably does not to the mc ethier. Finally. For the sex or smut, scenes. I will hide them under spoiler. But you should not have to worry about it until somewhere around chapter nineteen or twenty, so if you don’t want to continue reading a book with sex, stop there. I will also be putting an NSFW sign in the chapter heading to warn people ahead of time. (all sex scenes will now be moved to my Patreon and scribblehub.) Thank you for reading and please help me become the writer I am hoping to be as well as the writer you all deserve to read from.
