The Painting by colleyflowers

"It took me five seconds to fall. The impact on my chest jarring my body but not my mind. I suppose this is the point where your life is supposed to flash before your eyes as time itself freezes - and it did in a way. But I didn't relive my life physically like walking through an old memory, déjà vu in each step. It was a feeling, something that started in my chest and spread to my fingertips, one so unique to me that it encapsulated each significant event into one single second." For as long as May can remember one mystery has haunted her world. A dirty window before her, the grim obstructing her vision, she has lived with a loss she can't identify - that is until one rainy night. Gradually the spots of dirt May scratched at for so long wipe away with the touch of a finger. But when she looks in will she like what she sees - or will curiosity kill the cat?

$Forlot: Forgotten Forest - Book Eight {Completed} by Forlot_Forever$

It may be a small town. But it has its many secrets. ----------------------------- I decided to forget about it for now and was going to head back to the group... ...when I heard it again. Louder this time. "Help me! Help!" My heart was racing. My legs were quivering. What should I do? "Help! I need help!" I spotted a pair of arms waving in the distance of the forest. My teeth chattered. I had to at least go and check it out. I dashed into Forgotten Forest, zigzagged to avoid the trees, and saw the person. Saw the boy who was drowning in quicksand. ----------------------------- If you like adventure, mystery, humor, or cliffhangers, then this is the book for you! Cover: Recolor Copyright by Ash J.

Weapon in trust lays, laced amongst the thorns of the rose, with your safety that could never be promised in its must. Then who could you rely on? Could you even trust yourself? Even if you walk away, turn a new page and leave it all behind. Could you resist... the thrill of the game, the verge between life and death that rests in your veins. Your control cracks the sandcastle you built, because no matter how far you run, the past will always hunt you at your will. And the time has finally arrived. For the world to see how exhausting is to be evil...

What Lies Beneath by Loutka

[Book 1 to the Lake Bellinor Duology] [UNEDITED] It can't be controlled. And it can't be ignored.

Nothing more, nothing less. So, when a nameless young woman is found drifting down the middle of the lake, Tyler realizes he just might have a chance to put his ability to the test, and figure out whether it is a gift or a curse.

Love and betrayal by blackcoldwind

She felt stinging pain in her back, she turned around in disbelief, expecting to see him pointing a gun but she saw him standing there with a shocked reaction too she focused behind him. Someone was standing with a gun pointed toward her, they shot again and the force of this bullet imbalanced her hurt, blood losing body, causing her to fall. Hey guys! Here is another story but this one is not a fanfiction, but I hope you like it. If you do, don't forget to vote for all the parts. Warning: • I use curse words openly. Without these '*'. So, if you are uncomfortable, I would recommend not to read. • This is all fiction, It has nothing to do with real life.

The Girl without a name✔️ by The-popcorn-maker

"I scanned my surroundings, attempting to identify where I was. Or more importantly...who I was." One day. One forest. One girl. A Jane Doe is found wandering the forest, her hair uncombed, her clothes torn. The last thing she remembers is the forest, an extensive case of severe head trauma wiping her memories. She tries to regain control of her life, renaming herself Jane Hope and joining the Police Academy. But memories haunt her, images appearing in her mind...images she can't ignore. Familiar faces surround her, forcing her to face her past. And as Jane makes new friends and becomes irrevocably attracted to a fellow officer, one question pulses through her mind, churning inside of her brain: Can you ever look to the future when you can never leave your past?
