-Finn's POV

She was sitting next to me, our shoulders slightly touching, her gaze on the ocean.

I could hear the sound of the waves, ringing in my ears like a lullaby. But my focus ? It was on anything but the waves.

She was beautiful. The moon, high above us, was creating a halo of light, hitting the soft features of her face. The light breeze was clearing her hair from her face, allowing me t...

where are you

Error She Wrote

Where can you meet someone you already met ? To see the look of there eyes for the very first time . Go back to a time that already has passed and happened . To look into the love of the future you exist with that person . Did the love there always exist ?

Do we learn to love ?

Do we learn to unlove

And fall into love

And out of love again .

Did you ever love at all ?

Will we ever be cleans...

if your hand could reach inside my

heart, what would you do with it?

Squeeze it?

Pinch it?

Rip it to shreds?

or would you hug it and take care of it,

as if it were your own?...

Opposites Attract

I stare across the river, a huge broken-down castle with black flags in my view. Our enemies are now going to be our guests for the evening. Being on opposite sides of the river has always caused friction between our kingdoms. Having to share our resources, and our land even though it is split in half like a sign for each to stay on our side. However, that is not how greed works.

Sighing I clos...

Chapter 1: A Case Rekindled

Amelia Grant leaned back in her chair, staring at the photograph in front of her. It was a blurry image of a man in a suit, walking out of an office building late at night. His face wasn’t clear, but she recognized the broad shoulders, the confident stride, and the tight-lipped smile.

Luca.

Her heart gave an involuntary lurch.

It had been years since she’d seen him,...

I watched as she walked down the aisle, she looked like a princess that walked out of a book.

But I know that this is not how she liked to dress. If it were up to her, she’d wear a white tuxedo or even a tank top with a pair of sweatpants.

As she stood infront of my friend, her fiance, I could see the faint sadness in her eyes. They no longer had the shine they used to have. She looked like a b...

him

Levi Hermus

Touching him is like breathing for the very first time.

Tracing my hands along his cheek,

down his chest, feeling the lines of his muscles.

Brining my fingers to his stomach, tracing the v that goes down into the waistband of his pants.

I take in the sent of him, not quite able to identify the smell,

but it doesn’t matter,

because it’s him.

I slowly tug at his pants as he arches his waist.

I wan...

"It's easier to ask for forgiveness than for permission." I say vaguely with a shrug of my shoulders, a playful smile tugs on my lips as I slip off my own hood. I pull the satchel back to myself. My hands quickly and carefully take the item out of the satchel and place it on the table in front of us.

There on the table, next to the empty satchel, rests a pearlescent dragon egg.

His gaze meets m...

Birds cirlced overhead, swarming in the night sky before scattering away like pollen in the breeze. The night was cold, crisp and biting, but your words were the coldest of all. My eyes had drifted from your gaze, to the dark void above us. Stars squinted down at us, twinkling like distant lanterns over a midnight sea. To them, we are no more than a sliver of light, as they are to us. In that mome...
