"I know many things," uttered the wise little frog. "I know why the wolves howl at the moon, I know that the heart cannot be reasoned with and I know that you, Christophe, are a good and kind child. Three wishes I present to you, for you to do with as you will. But take heed, young one, for once a wish has been made, it cannot be undone. Do you understand?"
"I do."
"And so, little one, what is your first wish?"
* * *
After encountering an strange frog in the forest, a young boy is granted with three wishes. However, as he grows up, Christophe must learn a painful lesson: that there are some things that magic can't change.

Careful what you wish for... Wishes can come true. They always do at this wishing well. But in what form are they granted? And can you afford to make the wrong wish? The town understands the well. They know its history. They've been waiting, the lot of them, waiting for someone who doesn't know how it all works--that many wishes have been granted but some not as happily as others. For the well grants wishes in one of three forms: perfectly, oddly, or tragically. No one wants the third. For years the well has been waiting, waiting for its next coin, that next wish and the townspeople are only too happy to pass the outcome on to someone outside their circle, starting the cycle fresh. Everyone wants their turn at a perfect wish. When Olivia arrives new in town, she's the perfect target. The well has been calling her. How far will the town go to get her to make a wish?Complete

Release Me
Highest ranked- #10 in action 2/16/2017 A promotion. That's all I wanted. I didn't want to run for my life. I didn't want to be kidnapped. I didn't want to face death. I didn't want to find out my whole life was a lie. I just wanted a bloody promotion. Guess fate had other plans? **** The cold air fanned over my face as I opened the door. The exit door lead to the back of the building so it was pitch black. I leaned against the wall trying to control myself. Blood was running down my arm and head. My hair was stuck to my face from all the sweat and blood. Everything was spinning around me and the ground seemed like it was shaking. Groaning I sat down and put my head on my knees. He knows who I am. He knows how I look like. He knows where I work so possible knows where I live. I am not safe anymore... no where. While I was in my own world I heard faint sounds behind me but I didn't bother to look or run away. The footsteps got closer and I was pretty sure it was Walker's men. I should run. I should try to fight. But what's the point in trying to run away? He would eventually find me and if he has his way he would most likely kill me. If this is my fate then why am I trying to fight it? I felt someone harshly grab my waist and pull me up and I complied. They dragged me down the alley and into the busy street. I heard the opening of a car and the next thing I knew I was being thrown into a car. My head hit the hard leather seat and the door shut behind me. Maybe this is how my life will end. Maybe I should just let it happen. Maybe I was destined to die alone as a no one. With that I let the darkness consume me.Complete
