Oh them eyes why is that spark kept on

I promise I look away

It all seems like it been forgotten,

Power over you

I seen it all before your time came across you

Pieces after pieces keeps on falling apart

I promise I look away

Best decision I ever made

Look away...

Can I even write fiction? How do I have such a good imagination everywhere else but not making stories. People are impossible to create they’re too complicated.

I feel like I don’t even have anymore to contribute. Maybe I don’t. Maybe I’m finally out.

She walked through the door and lights. Music. Dancing. Fun! She closed her eyes ...

“I refuse to wear it anymore,” Lou insists, plopping down in her seat.

Her cuff making a clank when it hits the table she threw it on.

She invites the human friends to her home. Bell, Amelie, Jeremiah, Liam, and Tharen couldn’t come, but the rest did. So Jones, Roman, Ria, Cross, and Zac are lounging about in her animal sanctuary.

All her animal friends choose a human friend to sit near or on...

Everyday is continuous growth.

You fall more in love with yourself and your life daily.

Kaerith Backstory

Deborah Akuagbazie

Kaerith Virelyn was the daughter of Alpha Fenrik Greythorn, by blood, yes, but it meant nothing here. She was born under the Tear of the Moon, which was seen as a flaw in the Lycan bloodline.

She carried the mark of the moon’s sorrow that cursed her to never fully be accepted into Lycan society. No wolf ever came to her. No shift—wolfless. No power. No mate. Just a weak omega slave.

After her mot...

Here I Wait

Miah Anne

I stand there hopelessly in the fog, watching love—and all I had left—fade away from me. I watch as promises run and smiles drift.

He leaves in the mist and drowning rain—maybe so I can feel more of the pain.

But here I wait.

Suddenly, the mist peacefully drifts toward me—almost smiling. Memories unfold between its edges and ripples, and laughter echoes—warmth follows.

The fog envelops me in i...

Around The Mountain

The clouds around the mountain,

Make a little ring.

They circle like a crown,

That makes me want to sing.

The glory of God’s creation,

Covers all like a silver fog.

The sunrise around the mountain,

Brings up the wonder of it all....

I grab my sister’s hands and pull her towards the direction of the cliff edge with me. She nods slowly in my direction. Then we jump.

For a millisecond, we’re weightless, falling fast as the wind whips against our faces. I feared we would shattered apart in the air, but instead I grabbed tighter. The sea is clashed up to meet up, but just before we sink in, everything shifts.

We don’t crash, or...

Sunrise, a castle on a bay

Penfold

It's like the sun can’t quite break through, the hills are too steep, the branches tangled up, and the light is caught between the cusp. Betwixt the night and day, light is matted, woven together by absence or by presence, and it’s the feeling of what might be in those negative spaces, it’s comforting, but also it’s haunting.

The castle like a ghostly ship - my mind wanders, but what of it? Is it...
