Hell Minds

Kaiho_Koshiro
Hell Minds What if the stories you told… started to tell themselves back? Kaira, a sharp-witted teen with a voice made for the mic, starts a podcast with her four closest friends—Malik the skeptic, Juno the tech genius, Ezra the horror buff, and Lia the quiet empath. Their show, Hell Minds, is meant to be a fun dive into the world’s most terrifying real-life ghost stories—from haunted dolls to cursed houses. But as the podcast gains popularity, strange things begin happening. The lights flicker every time Ezra speaks. Malik dreams of voices he never heard before. Lia swears the ghosts are listening. And one day, their latest episode doesn’t upload—because the file has been changed. Someone… or something… added a voice that doesn’t belong to any of them. Now, the friends aren’t just telling ghost stories. They’re living them. And the deeper they dig, the more they realize: some stories want to be left alone.

Prey Amongst Predators

On the brink of death, Sol had expected nothing more than eternal peace from his lifelong suffering. But instead, fate dealt him an unexpected hand. The Melvires, a renowned family, rescued him that night, and his fate was rewritten. A man who called himself his father, along with the four sons who bore no resemblance to him, offered a life so far removed from his own, it felt like fiction. Ever since then, he had done everything in his power to make himself worthy of the life they gave him. Yet even as the years passed, some truths remained hard to ignore. The Melvires carried themselves with an elegance that seemed inborn, an air of distinction no effort could replicate. No matter how hard he tried, Sol always felt like an outsider trailing behind them–grateful, but never equal. Nevertheless, he dedicated himself to their service, believing loyalty was the least he could offer in return. But everything shattered the night he turned twenty when the veil was lifted. The Melvires finally revealed the sharp claws hidden behind their velvet gloves. Sol was nothing more than a sacrifice. The crown of their design. He fought hard to escape their reign of terror, but the more he resisted, the steeper the slope became. Every path forward was walled in inevitability. His spirit waned beneath the weight of isolation and betrayal, until all that remained was resignation. Perhaps this was simply the closing of a circle. If his life was the price for everything he had been given, then so be it. He opened his arms, ready to embrace death again, just as he had all those years ago. But what was with their sudden change in attitude? Why, after all the pain they had inflicted, did they now seem… wounded?
