ballykittery death fiction frame old suspense thriller

Ballykittery has witnessed many a strange and unusual event within the frame of its borough. Some of these stories have been told, plenty of them remain untold. 

Some people leave and inevitably return, others come to dig into the town's rich history and learn about themselves, the majority live their days out in Ballykittery with no yearning to know what lies beyond the town limits. 

There are things that never change- the townsfolk's outrage and grumbling acceptance at council spending, Ballykittery United, the local football team, being good for a cup run but rarely good enough to see it through and bring home any silverware, and the all-enduring Saturday market. 

One Saturday, a new fellow sets up stall. He hasn't come to sell fruit and veg, knock-off clothes and nor do his curious items fall into the usual market bric-a-brac and tat category. On the lookout for something for her grandson, Joyce Garnett finds herself drawn to this oily smooth-voiced and well-travelled vendor's stall. Surely there could be no harm in treating herself to an unremarkable oak photo frame from this charming salesman, could there?All Rights Reserved

It may be a small town. But it has its many secrets. ----------------------------- I sat down at the table and drummed my fingers on top of it, waiting for my food. Dad flipped two big pancakes into a plate and placed them in front of me. "Your favorite syrup is on the table," Dad informed. "And before I forget, could you take your sister to that antique shop that just opened up? They sell dolls there, and well...I accidentally broke one of Amy's dolls." I picked up the bottle of syrup and poured some syrup on my pancakes. "Nice one, Dad." After I had finished eating breakfast, Kira asked if she could tag along. I quickly denied, telling her that I was a big boy, and scooped up Amy. We headed out and downtown. That is where most of the shops are. We reached the new antique store, and I happened to peer through the window and saw... "...Mom?" ----------------------------- If you like adventure, mystery, humor, or cliffhangers, then this is the book for you! Cover: Recolor Copyright by Ash J. All Rights Reserved

Bound In Blood (Bound In Blood - Book One) by crystalglacier

I'd always known the horror of this world. The archaic arts, men who became beasts they could hardly recognise and twisted murder plots. I just never thought I would have to see it firsthand.

With the help of companion, Conner Franklin, our protagonist must persevere against betrayal, loss and prophecy. Only the gods know the fate of our unlikely hero. You see, assassins know two very important ideas: stealth and bloodshed. However, when their location is discovered and Alex is exiled from the only home they ever knew, a whole new set of problems arise and the true villain is exposed. With the aid of nightwalkers, an alchemist and a barmaid, Alex must learn the truth and put an end to this supposed "prophecy".

What Game Will You Play by Bri-Bunny225

The New World has been the last peaceful and resourceful country for nearly two hundred years. Or at least that's what they say. Samantha Ivory has been living a boring average life in an old town with lots of history. That is, until the news of a carnival coming to town ignites new excitement. This carnival promises a night of fun for everyone. There are games, promising rewards, and food that no one has ever seen or tasted before. But what if this carnival isn't what it seems to be? And who are these people that have come into her town? Can Sam figure it out before it's too late, or will she get stuck playing a game she never wanted to play? (Currently completed as of October 2023, and finished editing as of March 2024) *****Excerpt***** Excerpt: Instead of seeing myself standing in front of me, there is somebody else and it's not my brother or anyone I know. A boy no older than me is just standing there, he is wearing a gray shirt with a hole in the shoulder and it has a handful of stains and dirt spots on it. I immediately know he is not from Treegrass. Not only have I never seen him before in my life but everyone in our town always wears nice clean and washed clothes, therefore nobody should be looking like him. The boy has a small cut on his cheek and is thin, a lot thinner than he should be. I look away from him and around at my surroundings, there is no one else here. I regain my composure and look at him again. That's when he says something that makes my blood run cold. "Run."

Soren Bianchi [+18] by jasminkssss

"Soren, P-Please," I begged, my hand clasping around his wrist, desperate for him to thrust his finger inside me. "I love it when you beg, Amore. But we're running late." He stopped, and I definitely wanted to strangle him for making me frustrated. "I hate you," I groaned. He spun me around and placed one hand on the back of my neck, pulling me in for a kiss. "No, you don't," he mumbled against my lips. He pulled away from the kiss, with a small peck on my forehead, and a light smack on my ass. "Did you strap on your holster?" He asked. ♡♡♡♡ Aurora Daniels, a young exhibition coordinator finding her footing in a new country, runs into a man who had given her the best sex of her life in a one-night stand.

Obsession. by jezxzica

If you like fantasy/romance you should try my story The Flower Longed Death. It is written a LOT better than this one is! -------------------------- "You must've got the wrong impression if you keep expecting to get away with shit like this, so let me make things clear," He says with a calm smile. He moves his face closer to mine, losing the lighthearted grin that had previously cooled my nerves. I get a better look at the scar across the bridge of his nose, and the vague one X'ed onto his lips. Now I want them even more. -------------------------- Eighteen year old Mileva never thought her past would catch up to her after leaving years ago to live in New York City. She didn't think she wanted it to. However, she also didn't think she would cross paths with a guy like Valen, the Italian Mafia's heir. He's only twenty three, but he's somehow the most attractive and intimidating man she has ever met, let alone heard of. Mileva battles her anxiety adjusting to this new life of hers, while Valen is just getting comfortable with his new obsession. -------------------------- Word count: 110,000 There is a lot of graphic content, so please read carefully! List of specific warnings can be found in the introduction. The writing gets better as the story progresses, I promise.

Immortal (COMPLETED) by JORDANCIAGA

His hands rush to pick up thin dollar bills leaving small paper cuts on his fingers and I can feel the anxiety seeping off of his body. Sweat collecting into a small bead on his neck as he says something like, "You don't know who my boss is, bitch." I press the metal deeper into his scalp, saying I don't give a fuck about who his boss is and if any money is missing I'll take it in the form of bodies. I pull a long strand of brown hair out of my mouth as he tosses a bag into my hand. With a slight smile through my ski mask, I shoot two tiles out in the ceiling before darting out the store and into a back alley. The cashier's nametag ringing in my head as I ran. Cedric. * Wren Parker. A young woman with a troubled past attends her sister's wedding after years of separation. Throughout her visit she finds herself entangled in secret meetings with her sister's fiancé. Little does she know, this is only a twisted start for her and the Thomson family.

After Effects by S4_angel

"I'm not going to kill you Ms. Harrington, and why, you ask? Well, first of all, it would be too obvious that it was me who killed you since I have all the right reasons to do so. And second of all, I have a corporation to run, a reputation to uphold and too much money to make, so I refuse to waste that all for the sake of fulfilling my only wish and ending your life. My life is too important to be spent in jail for killing you anyways." •°•°•°°•°•°• Katherine Harrington: 22 years old, financially stable, a recent university graduate, fun but assertive.
