My sister is moving for a new job, so she invited me to go with her. I jumped at the chance, and would jump at any chance for a fresh start. When I found out where we were going, I was a bit surprised - Ava got a job at a funeral home in a town called Hearthway Hollow, a mountain town surrounded by a national forest and nature reserve.
For the time being, Ava and I are renting an apartmen...

2020-05-26 23:36:09 +0000 UTC View PostYou remember having a discussion with Severin about the future, how you were expected to marry, what your family expected of you. Severin had been disheartened by this, knowing that his stature wasn’t smiled upon by most. He felt neither Orc nor human because of it.
“You look Orc,” you told him.
“I look like a goblin,” he huffed. “No one will want me.”
“Don’t say that.” You watched him as he sat their brooding. You looked down at your hands, wonderi...

Some days, it feels like John isn’t there in the room at all. Like before, you’ll feel cold breezes graze against your cheek, or hear something that isn’t there. It starts to feel like that day when he threw the box was all a fluke, maybe even a practical joke.
Mason hasn’t heard John talk at all, but you hear like he’s standing beside you. You try to make sense of it all, but n...

“I would jump at the chance to work with you, but I’m afraid we must go through the board, consider all options, wade through red tape,” he huffs. “It’s all so bureaucratic, it bores me to tears.”

Downtown is full of all sorts of old buildings, which over the years have become the shopping hub for your small town. What used to be old general stores and shoe repair stores now sell handmade soaps, antiques, and boutique goods in pop-ups that rotate like the seasons. Your aunt has come to own one of these buildings, some sort of factory or meat rendering plant. All you remember is being petrified...

“I can tell you’re a hard worker, Torok. I’m not worried about that. Do your job and do it well, that’s what I hired you for.” I marveled at her smile.

I was left at the Temple of the Oracles when I was born, abandoned because of my appearance. The Oracles took me in, understanding already that, despite my appearance, I was born to do powerful things. Mama Neaera nursed me and raised me by her side. She was one of the more powerful oracles in the temple, able to divine by playing a special lyre made from ancient wood from the mountains where the god...

After dinner Othello fixes Cassio’s hair. He trims it down, making it much shorter but so much nicer than before. Cassio has a beautiful face, and the new hair style shows off his sharp jaw and elegant neck.
“Now then, what would you like to do next?” Othello purrs into his ear. “Would you like my Darling to pamper you a little bit?”

Ever since you met Sylvie and Sam you’ve been spending more time with them. It starts out as drinks every now and then, and texting with them while on your lunch break.

The creatures cackles and I swing again, cutting more branches. As foliage falls around me something tackles me from behind. Claws dig into my shoulders, and it’s feet kick into the middle of my back. I use my sword for balance to keep myself from falling and I throw myself backwards, slamming the creature into a tree. It screams into my ear, kicking ...

Sitting at the bar, you watch people come and go from the mirror behind the shelves. You see lovers kiss and friends greet one another, but your mind starts to wander as the person you’re waiting for still fails to arrive. You glance at your phone and check the mirror. It’s become obvious that your date is never going to show.
Oh well, it figures it would be too good to be true. You f...

Atticus nods his head as he looks at me. “That’s okay. You can tell me anything.” He pushes his glasses up his nose and those sapphire eyes watch me closely.
“I went through a pretty messy divorce two years ago.” I look down at my hands clutching the latte cup. “It’s been hard for me to date since then. It still is, even though I really like you so much.”

My father isn’t happy that the Caldera won’t come into our home. Then again, I’m sure he’d be furious if they did. Nothing can please him now, considering that he knows he was in the wrong. He’d never admit to it or back down, even if it means strong retaliation from the Caldera. Candela has warned me her mother isn’t happy, and is eager to forge a new deal with blood if she has to.
“Good afternoon.” An older woman comes walking from the back. “May I help you, young lady?”
I start to ask if she’s Maven but I suddenly clam up. “I was-” My voice cracks. I want a job. Are you hiring? Can I help here with anything? I just moved and I’m a gemologist and a trained jeweler as well.
My phone starts ringing. “I’m sorry.” I quickly step aside and take my phone out. It’s Ava. “Hello?” I answer.

The Cauldron Mountains sit steaming in the distance, so hot that even the snow doesn’t rest on them. The people who live there, the Caldera, are known to be strong, resilient, and terrifying. They are said to be extremely tall, with bodies that are capable of withstanding the heat in the Cauldrons. They have rich dark skin that is beautiful to behold, charmed to keep them safe from the heat.

When I fell in love, I thought it would be forever. I thought she would be mine to hold and protect and never let go. It was so very long ago, yet it still feels as if I only turned around, I would be with her again. I understand why she had to leave, but it does nothing to soothe the pain I felt. Even now, the scars remain, haunting me with stirrings of misery when the memory returns. I was her firs...

The cold has become impossible to combat lately. The monastarey’s huge stone tower is used more for defense rather than, well, a home for you and the other clerics.
