In the Quiet After by LoiseAnneRamos

If you were on your third and final life, would you stop yourself from loving someone new? Is the soul truly bound to the past, or can you fight for a different future? Nadia, an art historian fascinated by the origins of artistic forms and the deep stories they carry, never expected a simple restoration project to unravel a mystery centuries in the making. When she stumbles upon an unfinished painting that feels hauntingly sad, she becomes obsessed with uncovering its origins. Her search leads her to Theo, a young artist who has never once finished a piece with true satisfaction-until now. As they work together to complete the forgotten masterpiece, their connection grows, blurring the lines between past and present. But when Luna arrives-an enigmatic art collector who seems to know more than she lets on-Nadia starts to question if this story began long before she was even part of it. Theo has never been able to finish a painting the way he wants to. But will he finish this one... when it holds the answer to everything? And in the quiet after the brushstroke, will the truth still feel the same?

The Vampire and The Ghost | ✔︎ by SammyE9

[BOOK ONE OF THE VAMPIRE AND THE GHOST SERIES] She's dead, he's undead. An unusual duo make their way through the modern world, and its modern challenges. Annalise Redwood had spent too much time alone, floating in a centuries old house. The very same house she was murdered in 5 years before. She'd watched people leave, come in, investigate and even squat in this house. Yet none of them stayed long. And more importantly none of them saw her. It was hell, and she swore she was cursed. But this all changes, on the 5th anniversary of her death when a seemingly normal young man walks in. And he sees her. Eugene Cubert was old. Too old. He was done with life, had lived, breathed (well not really) and seen too much for one soul to bare. Quite frankly all he wanted to do was find a nice house to live in and spend the rest of the century comfortably locked away from all of the supernatural and natural. He's visiting his 5th house that day, when he hears it. A woman, screaming to be seen. And then he sees her. And nothings quite the same after that. ---------------------------------------------------- #No.2 in paranormal 3/7/2021 #No.1 in ghost 9/7/2021 #No.8 in murder 2/8/2021 Updates weekly!

Dark Museum by melsurani

What if you awoke in an eerie art museum without knowing how you and four others arrived? What if those four comprised a musician you had the hots for, a movie star, an office worker, and someone you knew nothing about, all of whom remembered the same woman right before finding themselves there? What if that museum had no easily discernible exits, no means for contacting anyone on the outside, but still had operating internal surveillance? For Sophia Stewart the real nightmare doesn't begin until she escapes.

As they spend time together, Isla finds herself drawn to Luna's quiet intensity and the warmth in her gaze.

Despite the bond they share, Isla can't shake the feeling that Luna is hiding something. Still, the growing attraction between them is undeniable, and as their time together deepens, so does the pull of emotions neither woman can ignore. Isla is torn between the life she's built and the love she finds herself falling into again, but Luna, with her gentle touch and mysterious presence, may be the one to awaken a side of Isla she never knew she was missing.

Thistle | #NONC2022 | ✔ by SmokeAndOranges

❖ ''ZF 16 Ariomma to unknown vessel. Please identify yourself. Over.'' ❖ Farah and Kazem are twins working aboard the Ariomma, a trading airship that sails the edges of a flat world. Out here is a frontier far from civilization: a place known as the Tideless, where water lifts from the surface of the sea, and great creatures rise with it. Only some of them are known. This is not a sailing path known for its safety, but the crew of the Ariomma have rarely feared their work. That is, until they find the carcass of another ship hanging in the Tideless, decimated by an unknown enemy. Soon, their flight to safety becomes a fight for their lives, as the monster turns its attention on the Ariomma... and them. ❖❖❖ Written for #NONC2022, a community-run novella festival operating in parallel with Wattpad's 2022 Open Novella Contest.
