The Clock of Miss Fortune ✔ by ChintanBhanushali

Hannah is an antique collector. One day she stumbles upon a very old Longcase clock and immediately gets pulled towards it as if a voice was calling her to posses it. She buys the clock and soon after that her life and everyone around hers start to change. Time twists, memories surface and above all whatever rests within that clock is about to awake from its deep slumber. This is not an average jump scare horror story. I've managed to write it as I wanted it to be and I love the outcome. So, I hope everyone reading it will show the same love to this story. Vote and comment for support. Thank you very much for reading. This will be a short story. New chapters will be published on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. If I miss any mentioned day then I'm either sick or out of town for work.

Be careful what you wish for. by megan02xo

Time travel. It's interesting huh? One minute, you can be on a weekend holiday with your best friend and the next minute you have traveled back 100 years, living in a completely different city with a new family, new house, new job and a new life having moved to Birmingham at some point in their life. The only thing that has stayed the same is their body, face, personality, hair and the fact that they were both born in Leeds. Read on to find out what happens in this twisted time-travelling tale. PS: there will be changes to characters in this, like characters who die and characters who don't etc.

The Messenger (Mortal Beloved, Book One) by PamelaDuMond

But when Madeline’s shoved in front of a speeding commuter train she believes death has claimed her. Maybe. Maybe not. Madeline wakes in the warm, dead body of a girl who was slain moments earlier in a brutal raid on a colonial outpost. She quickly learns she has time traveled hundreds of years into the past to claim her birth right as a Messenger – a soul, who if properly trained, can slip through time’s fabric at will, delivering messages that could change one life or many. But falling into a forbidden love with her soulmate, Samuel, a Native boy, attracts the wrong kind of attention. Rumors of witchcraft and spying could get them killed. Worse - deadly Hunters, dark-souled predators as well as skilled time travelers, crave Madeline's powers. Can Madeline find the way back to the future in time to save herself and Samuel?

The Time-Traveller's Choice by sennalily

One moment, Emma Scott is in her college room in 2015, and the next she's in 1921 falling in love with an ex-soldier with a charming smile and a secret... Emma's an old hand at time travel: the first time she was pulled backwards she was ten years old. She can sense the memories that stone, fabric and wood have soaked up: usually she just sees them, but sometimes she ends up living them. She knows the drill: (1) avoid getting pulled backwards in the first place; (2) avoid the object that's pulled you backwards; (3) prevent the memory that imprints on the object, or, if all that fails, (4) wait it out until you're back in the right time. The problem is that the object was an old ring that her Granny Alice bequeathed to her, and Emma last saw it on the finger of her great grandmother, fleeing into a crowded London street. Now Emma is trying to find the ring and go back to her own time, but her great grandmother has vanished, and meanwhile there's Charlie Lawrence who's making Emma wonder if she even wants to go back at all...

A Journey Through Time by spark_your_curiosity

What should one do when they find themselves suddenly in 1899? This was certainly not a question Aria ever thought she would ask herself-not yesterday, not today, and certainly not on the 2nd of October 1899. After all, she is just a junior journalist at an independent media company with dreams and passions, living a simple life. She is determined to make a difference by telling people's stories and giving a voice to the voiceless. What she truly seeks is normalcy and happiness, hoping to move past the trauma that has haunted her for the last ten years. But everything changes when she purchases an antique silver box from a mysterious stranger who speaks of fate. Ignoring her warnings, Aria wakes up overnight as a 21-year-old aristocratic lady in a world where societal norms confine women to strict codes of behavior. With her modern sensibilities clashing against the rigid expectations of 1899, she meets historical figures she had only heard about in her father's history lectures, making her question the nature of her new reality. As she navigates her new life, Aria must contend with a pestering mother eager to see her married off, a bickering elder brother who constantly challenges her, and a pair of ocean-blue eyes she just can't seem to look away from. Torn between two worlds, Aria must confront questions of destiny, family, and love. Will she fight to return to the life she once knew, or will she embrace the possibilities of a life she never imagined?

A Time Traveling Fairytale by ElsaS7

Fate leads those who are willing but must push those who are not. One might interpret this saying a bit too literal. After all, Elena did end up on the bottom of a hill in the middle of a forest, suffering several injuries. But do not worry, fate loves a rebel and has something magical stored for our sarcastic heroine. Time travel. An adventure in the 16th century was not something our main character had in mind, but when her path is built with music and joy, it can't be that bad, right? Oh, who am I kidding. . . At first glance, it seemed to be the perfect fairytale for our main character; being able to experience the medieval time and be surrounded by enchantment wherever she went. She even meets a monk, blessed with the gift of music, who shares her passion and is willing to teach Elena the secrets of the piano. It's perfect. But it was only the tip of the iceberg. Elena's piece of tranquility is broken when she stumbles into another mess, leaving her caged and alone in the forest. Fortunately for our heroine, a prince crosses her path, helping her in her need. One might see this as the Universe's way for entertainment, or the fate's bizarre tactics to bring people together. Whatever it might be, it did not stop Elena from catching the eye of the prince of a powerful kingdom. Before anyone knows what's even happening, they're caught in the middle of it all; like a cat trapped in a yarn. After all, even the stone you trip on is a part of your destiny. What happens when the Universe, and basically everything between hell and heaven, is against you? Simple: it's a journey filled with unforgettable events. So buckle up, folks, because you are in for a ride of pirates, songs, chases, jokes, and a broken soul. After all, there is no flying from fate.
