Welcome to Wanderlust: (A Short Story)
1. I planned this to be a short story. No more than 10 parts but I did a little extra by accidentally making the plot a lot deeper/complex than intended, and I needed to find a way to properly close it. Still, it's a short read.
(8/14/22) !TW! 2. Mentions of rape and sexual assault. I'm currently not editing this story but while momentarily revisiting it I felt the need to add this warning for precautions for fellow readers. The mc gets sexually abused by the antagonist and I gave no advanced notice. I wrote this story when I was younger and didn't know how important warnings are. So here it is. It's on "1| Isabella" The scene doesn't go into intricate details but is hinted at.
3. Perhaps one day in the future I'll revisit this story and extend it to a full one. It has the potential & storyline to be a full-length story, but right now I want to work on my other plot ideas. With that being said check out my other works:
