Brooding Stories

Welcome, mortals, night-dwellers, and unsuspecting readers. I am Crimson Bloodthorne, scholar of shadows, veteran brooder, cape enthusiast, and-occasionally-writer. Within these sacred digital pages, I offer you the truth of my life... or at least the most dramatic version of it. These are my memoirs. Each chapter recounts a pivotal moment in my long and unnecessarily theatrical existence-tales of childhood melancholy, cape-related disasters, failed transformations, gothic revelations, and the many catastrophes that forged me into the icon I am today. Prepare yourselves for: emotional monologues tragic backstory fragments questionable decisions and the kind of brooding that would make even the moon say, "Bro, are you okay?" Step carefully, dear reader. For once you enter my world... you may never brood the same way again. - Crimson Bloodthorne Cape Aficionado | Shadow Scholar | Occasional Vampire

The enchanted woods around Thorne Estate are beautiful, ancient, and hungry. When Lord Thorne finds a lost child in the mist, he brings him home. Vaeren, a quiet orphan marked by survival and a magic that grows darker and stronger with time, bending the elements he was never taught to fear. Caelia, the estate's fierce heir, is the only one who sees past the silence and the shadows. Their bond forms slowly over the years. But the world outside the woods is cruel, and alliances are heavier than love. When Vaeren is forced from the estate, old wounds turn into grudges. Years later, he returns. Richer, remade by anger and ambition, carrying the belief that he was left behind by the one person who mattered. A story of longing, resentment, and love tangled in silence and storm. **Author's Note** This short story was written for The Wuthering Heights Reimagined Contest. I don't live in the U.S., so I know I'm not eligible to win the prize, but honestly, I didn't write this for that. I wrote it because I love this kind of story and couldn't get it out of my head. Wuthering Heights has always stuck with me. This is my take on that feeling, just told in my own way. Maybe one day I develop this more, instead of being a short story withso many details being left out. Thanks for reading and letting me share this anyway.

What the Bite Awakens Some Awakenings Draw Blood Rhea Huddleston didn't come to Briar Hollow looking for trouble. She came because her mother needed a job, a fresh start, and a town small enough to feel safe again. Briar Hollow looks ordinary enough-quiet streets, a small college, locals who mind their own business. But some roads carry reputations, and Redfern Road is one people talk around instead of about. Calder Fenrick has lived in Briar Hollow his entire life. At twenty-two, he carries a responsibility he never asked for and a restraint he learned early. He doesn't want locals. Doesn't look twice at them. Familiarity breeds boundaries-and Calder never crosses them. Until Rhea does. She's new. Unmarked. Unaware of the invisible lines everyone else knows not to step over. Calder tells himself it's nothing-just curiosity, just proximity. But when instinct collides with control, consequences follow. And in Briar Hollow, some mistakes don't fade with time. They change you.

Isabella has always lived behind wrought-iron gates and polished smiles-but it is Damian, the quiet man who works in her world, who captures her heart. He is good with gardens and flowers, shaping beauty with his hands, yet believes he could never be worthy of a woman like her. No matter how many times Isabella reaches for him, Damian keeps his distance, hiding behind pride, fear, and the wall he built around his heart. Until the day he sees her with someone else-and realises that walking away was the greatest mistake of his life. Now, Damian must confront the insecurities that held him back and fight for the love he never thought he deserved. Because some walls are meant to protect... and some are meant to fall.

Sarah's never been average. Okay, that's a lie, of course she has. But for the past three years she's been doing everything she can to avoid it. Sarah's given up men, she's given up love, and... she's never been happier. Imagine that. Top of her classes, and with true success only a few years away, she planned to be big. Way big. The David Tennant of Finance. 'Course, her plans kind of went down the drain the day she joined the chess club... The day she met Mark Ubersmife.

Greetings. You may be wondering why an immortal of questionable origin, impeccable capes, and historically poor decision-making would choose to publish a cookbook. The answer is simple. We must eat. Within these pages, you will find recipes-real ones, prepared by my own dramatic hands-alongside reflections on existence, comfort, and the small mercies that keep us upright when eternity feels especially long. Expect: Toast, prepared with appropriate gravitas Eggs, treated as fragile miracles Simple meals elevated through mood, patience, and sighing Occasional affirmations, offered reluctantly but sincerely This is not a book about perfection. It is a book about survival, warmth, and feeding yourself even when the world insists you should simply brood instead. You do not need to be immortal to cook these meals. You only need hunger, curiosity, and a willingness to let the butter melt properly. So come in. Set the table. Lower the lights. But first... We brood. - Crimson Bloodthorne

Bitter misunderstandings turn into tender moments as they navigate through secrets, undeniable sparks and try to heal past wounds.

Where the light doesn't reach, where the joy does not live, where a single candle singes, exterminated in the darkness. These are the poems that live in the darker parts of my mind. The ones that don't have a happy ending, the ones that don't make you smile, the ones that feed off the minds of the weak and burrow deep into your brain. Enjoy as you are taken into the world that is Darkness.
