Bribed by her stubborn and terribly conceited self, Imani Ane agrees to be the personal maid of a creep whose family's a little too perfect.To the undeniably humble Ane, all's generally fine as she struts about the wealthy Campbell's residence and tends to its needy, frustratingly beautiful twig of a Master, but such mercy's bound to not last long── love is in the air with little to no patience, and so are the demons hiding in plain sight, always ready to pounce on any soul that disturbs them, even if they're Ane's own.Prepare yourselves for a wild, unforgettable mash-up of humor, psycho-thrill, and drama.© 2019-2021 Indigo Ivy Salamander / @indigosa All Rights Reserved-----Featured in the 2022 @Wattpad Community Curator List for Hispanic and Latin American Heritage Month.

Something's keeping seventeen-year-old Daniel up at night── something that's growing and developing within him, a certain desire he fears could bring chaos and shame upon him and everyone he knows if it ever comes to light, and things only go south when he reunites with Roger, the best friend he was forced to leave behind after moving up north.With only a telephone to keep their connection alive, the duo have successfully overcome their long-distance problem, but after a series of concerning chats over the phone, Daniel visits his old neighborhood over the spring break to confront his friend. What he finds, however, is not the good old Roger, but rather a completely new person, broken and torn on the inside.When Roger and Daniel challenge each other's secrets, what will become of them and their individual selves?© 2019 Indigo Ivy Salamander / @indigosa All Rights ReservedFeatured on @lgbtq, @FreeTheLGBT, @StoriesUndiscovered & @WattpadShortStory.~This is a Completed Short Story~…
