Realm of Renee by PastelOB

Imagine waking up one morning, with no memories of the past three months. Learning that everyone you know is either injured, dead or brainwashed. And trying to remember your memories may result in coma or brain death, or atleast that's what the mysterious ISA claim. Don't worry, it gets better. Your past self has left behind a document, narrating all the events that has happened in the three months. A love story. Between two teenagers, one is a Human and the other, a Spirit. A love that made you do things, feel things, believe in things that you normally wouldn't have. Something that has blinded a rational person like you, maybe for the better, or worse. A love that was the best thing that had ever happened to you. And the worst part? You'll probably never remember any of it ever again. Join Renee and Noah, as they wind their way through carefully planned murders, prying eyes of the ISA, all while creating something highly illegal: The Realm of Renee. ***** 🥇1st place under Fantasy in the Carnival Awards. #1 in #realm.

#ONC2025 Third Place Winner (Finalist) #ONC2025 Short List #ONC2025 Round 3 Ambassador's Pick #ONC2025 Long List #ONC2025 Round 2 Winner *** After spending 30 years in another world, Ariana wakes up in the life she left behind, only to find echoes of the love she lost in a stranger. Was this fate, or just a cruel trick of her grieving heart? ============= When Ariana opened her eyes in a hospital bed, the world she had known for the past thirty years had vanished. There was no elegant hanfu, bustling marketplace, or warm smiles from her children and grandchildren. Instead, she found herself back in her original life-the life she had lost in a car crash, the life where her fiancé, Paul, had betrayed her with her stepsister, Julie. Her best friend, Tina, is the only anchor in this cold, unfamiliar reality, helping her navigate a world that has moved on without her. But Ariana cannot forget the lifetime she lived in another world, the love she had discovered, the husband she had mourned for a decade before she was ripped away. And then she sees him. A stranger with familiar eyes. A man whose presence tugs at something deep within her, inscribed into her soul. Is he the reincarnation of the man she loved beyond the boundaries of time, or is her grief distorting reality, causing her to chase the shadows of a dream? As Ariana struggles to regain her place in a life she no longer wants, the lines between fiction and fate blur. The past is written, but love might find a way to reshape destiny. ============= A novella inspired by the ONC prompt 129: "The ink of our souls binds us beyond the pages of time," The Ink of Our Souls tells a story of love, loss, and the unbreakable ties that transcend worlds.

So, when she finally comes and looks at you with eyes full of hatred, you can't help but glare back. *** After cheating on his former fiancee, Janus was cursed to walk the earth, never settling, until he found one woman who could love him as much as he did them. So much so, that they would stay together eternally. He knew he had his looks going for him, but none of the millions of relationships he tried had worked out. Until one snowy easter night, in a brief conversation, he met her. After 300 years, he finally found a woman he could love so intensely, the curse would break. But he soon realised a terrible problem: that woman, with all her incredible wisdom, was not only blind but also hated him. Rated PG-13 for dark mental themes.
