***Unedited***

A companion story to my novel Shadows May Fall.

*Folks who have been reading along - you may have noticed that some of the parts have been unpublished (the ones set in 1904 and 1908.) The reason for this is that while I really enjoyed delving into the past with these characters and fleshing out Daniel and Lillian, they weren't really adding anything and coming up with a third one to fill the gap was just that -- filling the gap. I'll post them over at my website once this story is complete.All Rights Reserved

The Venantium Auallonia Trilogy: Summer Tide by prettyoddGal

This is a story I wrote a long time ago. I was about 12 and obsessed with Buffy the Vampire Slayer when I started writing it. I mainly wrote it for myself as a method of self-therapy, even self-published it for a time, but It never got anywhere. Im hoping maybe putting it on a site like this will give it some recognition. If you've liked what you read here, there is a second book titled Midsummer Sky that you can read on here as well. Commentary of all forms and rating is welcome. Here's the description: "But all the story of the night told over,  And all their minds transfigur'd so together, More witnesseth than fancy's images,  And grows to something of greater constancy; But, howsoever, strange and admirable." ˗˗William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night's Dream In May of 1827, Emery Winchester, a young man who like his uncle was a starving artist living off the streets of downtown London. Until the night he was murdered by a beautiful woman that was less than human, awakening as an immortal, and a vampire. From this, he swore off love for eternity. Now almost 200 years later, in quaint little Cape Cod, fate gives him an cruel deal. Dawn Waters, another anti-love supporter because of abuse, neglect, and sexual assault, finds herself falling in love with the strange newcomer. There's something off about him that sends Dawn into a roller coaster of life changing events...

Antiquities: A Short Story Collection by Nightfest

This is a collection of Shorts and unfinished pieces that I wrote and loved in days long past or had terminated prematurely. These are pieces that couldn't hold my attention or have been forgotten to time. I wanted to post them somewhere instead of letting them collect dust in my archives, because again, I loved them at some point. These have undergone edits for grammar and structure. From the years 2011 - 2016. Enjoy!

Yeji's Holiday Party Part 2: "Christmas in July" by snowcat22_2

This one has begun! To fully understand the background and motivations for this story, please ready my other three stories. This is a direct sequel of the first two. I can't figure out how to post links here, so unfortunately you'll have to search for them. WARNING: This story is much more 'sex-forward' than my other three stories. If that offends you, don't click on it... My next story likely around Halloween will be much lighter and fluffier and more emotional with less sexual situations. I'm doing my best to give all audiences something to enjoy.

The Edge of Tomorrow by Aia_Je

As his family pushed him to the top, he gained everything that everybody ever wanted, power, fame, and wealth. People were jealous, resentful, bitter of his achievements, they all wanted to be just like him. Beneath these cloaks was a man who longed for love, affection, happiness... But never has he gotten even a single drop of it. Trying to cast aside his past, he reincarnated after he died in a cold-blooded war. Still wanting love, affection, and happiness, he now seeks to get it all. In a world filled with magic, monsters, and swords he wants a chance to meet his desires in his second life. Now born as Alexander Hollows, he will create a path full of life... But never has he thought that so many challenges will face him from now on. With the help of the ones he trusts the most, they will discover what actually hides beneath the peace and prosperity of the new world, they will find the shadow that lurks beneath them. As the people around him discover and accept the truth of their own world will they also accept Alex's mysterious past? I'm only a beginner at writing and english is not my first language so please be considerate of my spelling and grammar errors. I have many ideas flowing in my head so please be patient while the plot slowly builds itself. I will give you more info on this novel later. Disclaimer: I do not own the cover!

Trapping Quincy (Caspian and Quincy) by Nikkireadw

He teases her. He challenges her. He fascinates her while he irritates her like no other. He drives her insane. He makes her...ughh, so mad she could scream! The only thing he won't do is let her go. Quincy: I'm a human living among the werewolves. My mom is a werewolf. She had a drunken fun one night with a stranger, a human. The union was not supposed to bear an offspring. I'm not supposed to happen, but here I am, an outsider. They all hate me but my Nana loved me. Then Nana died. They moved me to the pack house. Now, their old Alpha three times my age wants to make me his. That is not the life I signed up for. My Nana nurtured me a dream to go off to college. So I run. I run not because I'm a coward. I run to save myself. I will have nothing to do with their kind anymore. I'll be a normal human among other normal humans. I'll be so normal, even the most average normal humans will feel like freaks next to my normal ass. They will bow down before me and call me Queen Normal. Then I see him. The best specimen of men...but I know he's not human. He's not a werewolf either, so what is he? There's this pull between us but I know I shouldn't get close to his kind...whatever he is. The trouble is, he won't leave me alone. Caspian: I've been looking for my erasthai for decades. My mother dearest, the queen of all werewolves and lycans is pressuring me to marry Lady Celeste. I'm supposed to take over the throne from my father and make lady Celeste my queen. I want nothing to do with her. I want my erasthai. Then I saw her. She's a human. The most beautiful mesmerizing creature ever, and she's mine! I thought it's going to be easy. It should have been easy. Come on, ALL girls want me. I mean, look at me. I'm gorgeous! Mirrors weep when I walk past them. She refused to give me the time of the day. Well, too bad princess. I'm not about to let you get away. I'll crush all other competitions. I'm Prince Caspian. I always get what I want.

Brave Enough To Love Again by CalliopeBlythe

I stood with my back to her, shielding her, and my murderous eyes stared down at the poor excuse of a man, promising unimaginable pain if he dared to move or even flinch. The enormity of control it took me to suppress the impulse to eradicate the piece of scum, who dared to even think about laying a hand on a woman, was inconceivable. My whole body was trembling with rage. The guy was intimidated by the fury in my eyes and stumbled back to his intoxicated friends who were too dazed to understand the situation. I was disappointed and relieved at the same time that the chaos didn't end in a fist fight. When I turned around to console her, she was gone. And as I looked around, I saw her back just leaving the bar through the entrance. I hurried out to follow her. She walked ahead of me aimlessly and disoriented like a wounded animal that had just escaped the claws of death. My heart ached for her. I found a kindred soul in her. She evidently had been wounded in the past. Just like me. But in an even worse way than I had been hurt, and it angered me, that someone had dared to harm her. *** Eden Marie Simmons is still recovering after escaping an abusive relationship when she meets Keane, the broody and enigmatic neighbor who is shrouded in mystery. Both are still being haunted by their past and are not ready for a new commitment, but when fate repeatedly puts them in each other's paths, they can't deny their attraction for each other. Life challenges them both with secrets, lies, and broken trusts, and confronts them with their pasts. They both must learn to be brave enough to love again. *** Story is previously called "Paradise Lies"

Shadow Claw: The Life Story - The Fifth Chapter by TheLighterSideOfLife

"YOU SHOULD HAVE DIED ALONGSIDE LOST!!!" The clearing went silent. Who had spoken the words? I looked to Nova, and saw guilt. I looked to Hawthorne, and saw hurt beyond belief. "How- you...- our- my baby boy! Lost was my baby boy, Nova. It was your fault he- h-h-..." He collapsed into tears, rapidly shifting and disappearing into the inky darkness of the forest. Nova gave an anguished cry of frustration, "Hawthorne!" She screamed, spiraling into a state of utter worthlessness. I padded over gradually and rested my head on her shoulder, "Shh, shh." And I sat there with her for the rest of the night, with Jenny and James beside us too. Nova cried, Jenny cried, James cried and I cried. One for a lost love, one for a broken heart, one for a misunderstood heart, and one for a love that could never be bound. ------------------------------------------------------ Shadow Claw is finally in her sixth year of Hogwarts, but the responsibilities are weighing down on her.
