The poems correlate to personal and world problems that almost everyone can connect with; some poems are humorous and are metaphors toward inanimate objects. A few poems are dark and twisted while others are pure imagery, relating to and bringing light toward objects and ideas. The collection, “Fetch,” intertwines horror and thriller to explain everyday problems and human action while sprinkling fantasy elements on top. (Trigger Warning for poems 1 and 4: Don't read if you've been/ are suicidal and struggle with/ had struggled with an eating disorder.)

But good for my siblings, they only possessed one side of our parents. One is good and one is bad. While me? Both. So sometimes, I can't control the powers I have. That's why they separated me from my two sisters. They took me away from them, trained me to control my powers, punish me if I do something wrong, enrolled me in a school where everyone's threatened to me, bullied me, hurt me. But it's okay. I didn't want to get hurt so I just let it go. Until I couldn't take it anymore. One day, I made the best mistake in my life. I was sent to exile, never to return again. And I was happy. I lived far away from them, yet I was treated the same. Until I met Storm Gabriel Isaac. Everything has changed. Or so I thought.

Sometimes, detachment isn’t a choice. Sometimes, it’s the only way to stay whole. Jin Sol is silent. Weak. Overlooked. But in his silence, something ancient waits — not for anger, not for vengeance, but for the one spark he’s always lacked: purpose. A cursed pendant. A forgotten name. And a fate that only stirs when no one is watching. In a world where strength is everything, what happens when someone rises… not because they want to — but because they have no other choice?

The Fetch After his twin sister’s brutal death, 22-year-old Rowan Evans thought the worst was behind him. A month later, the nightmares began. He sees her everywhere — watching, waiting, dying in ways that soon become his own fate. Each time Rowan dies, he wakes again… but not unchanged. A mysterious mark burns deeper into his flesh, counting down to something far worse. Whispers speak of an ancient force that binds the living to the dead. To survive, Rowan must uncover the truth behind his sister Reagan’s death — before his final life runs out. And this time, he may not wake up.

In a decaying city consumed by poverty and rot, Lucas, a frail young man working in an old engraving shop under the care of a mysterious man named Lin, lives a life shaped by constant pain and quiet resignation. The streets are broken, the air is heavy, and nothing in his world feels alive anymore. Everything changes when he and his friend Dean discover a child hidden inside shattered barrels. The child bears a carved mark on his skin… the same mark that exists on Lucas himself. From that moment, reality begins to shift. Lin reacts as if he has been waiting for this for a long time. A strange, almost ritual-like act is performed over the child—blood is used, silence follows, and the boy dies in a way that feels unnatural, as if his existence was never entirely human. Whispers spread of something approaching from the north—things that look like humans but are not. When they take the child to be buried beneath a lonely maple tree standing outside the city, Lucas touches the body. And something inside him breaks open. Pain erupts through his mind like a flood of buried memory forcing its way to the surface. The world dissolves into darkness, as if something ancient has finally recognized its own return.

Twelve years ago, 'The Etching' Going home, I suddenly remember things. Plagued by nightmares. Will I be able to escape the grave I've dug?

[Hidebound Older Man VS Two-Faced Heiress: Daddy-Type + Seductress + An Old House on Fire] Everyone in Aethelgard says, a man should marry a woman from the West Family. The eldest daughter of the West Family is gentle and virtuous, a sought-after prize in high society. On the eve of her engagement. Her fiancé cheated on her. Willow West, having played the good girl for so long, decides she's done pretending. Fueled by alcohol, she finds a handsome man. Just one wall away from the scumbag ex and his mistress. The next day, she wakes up to her world collapsing. She had slept with the circle's famous 'older man'—Aiden Pierce, her dear uncle's best friend. Her impression of Aiden Pierce wasn't very good. Years ago, when she was having her first romance, she had tried to sneak a kiss with her young boyfriend, only for Aiden Pierce to report her to her uncle before their lips could even meet. The Aiden Pierce of today is even more dull—celibate and restrained, with everyone from his secretary to his assistant being male, and zero romantic scandals to his name. He's nothing short of a hidebound traditionalist! Willow West wants to escape. Aiden Pierce's well-defined hand grips her chin. "Miss West, a man's virtue is still virtue. You must take responsibility for me." * Aiden Pierce, who had practiced self-restraint for thirty years, was captured by Willow West—a woman gentle and demure in public, yet passionate and daring in private. Everyone thought Willow West was a good girl. Only Aiden Pierce knew that behind closed doors, the young woman not only smoked and drank but was also a cool, badass biker. * The assistant has recently noticed a change in the workaholic President Pierce. Not only is he hitting the gym three times a week, but his style has also shifted from uniform high-end suits to a different streetwear brand for every day of the week. His once stern and unsmiling face now frequently breaks into a smile. Even his eternally unchanged screensaver has been replaced. It's now a picture of a sexy, wavy-haired beauty in a black biker suit, holding a cigarette and sitting on a motorcycle!
