A bride reflects with satisfaction on the success of her love spell; A woman sees a scene from her childhood played out in the reflection of a dew drop; A young girl has an eerie feeling that all is not right; Two women share a home hundreds of years apart; A tired nurse meets a vampire whilst waiting for the last train home; Something in the woods crunches bones that snap with the dry crack of a winter twig... 
Twelve voices tell tales of the unexpected, in the winter when the light is low and the veil between this world and the next grows thin.

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?

My shelter from the storm by BrittneyGoyer

Anita," her angelic voice calls to me. Thunder rumbles in the distance. Her soft, delicate hands caressing my face, sparkling green eyes grounding me from the dark past I wish I could forget. "You're safe, it's okay." I bring my hand up, running my finger over the mound of scar tissue. The constant reminder of that night. The raised bump covers the bullet fragment embedded in my sternum. She takes my hands as more thunder rumbles and tears roll down my cheeks. "Breathe Anita," she says in a soothing whisper. My lungs were burning with the need for air and it was then that I realized I'd been holding it. I take in a gasping breath and recall the first time my eyes met her green eyes. My sister had been lifted off me and my eyes opening had startled her. The first time she touched me gave me strength to hold on. I held her hand tight, trying to tell her what happened, but couldn't get enough breath to form words. Sitting in the present going through the same as I had five years ago. "They were all found, Anita. They can't hurt you anymore. It's just a storm. All the doors and windows are locked, the alarm is set. It's just you and me." "Will you keep the light on tonight, please?"

Guardians of the Light by platypii6

That is until one oddly cold summer day that Mrs. Weevile, the cranky old owner of the orphanage she's in, tells her to get lost. Drawn into the forest late at night, Sierra meets an odd group of four six-year-olds, who tell her they need her for a special mission. What that mission is? Well, it seems so obvious at first. Then as the group continues on with the mission, meeting new people like a girl who can't stop singing and a supposedly famous wizard, they discover that there is more to this than they think. Finding out new information every day, it seems that one of the group is not who they say they are. Join Sierra on her magical mission through time and space as she discovers secrets about her family, and who she really is.

Forgive Me by wonderingWord

"In the eerie stillness of the day, In the shallows, of our home. I feel a presence all around me, In the silence, when I'm alone The silence is so deafening, The shadows on the wall. Hands of time slowly ticking, Only memories left that's all. Echo's of laughter of bygone days, Ghostly images of how life used to be. Sunlight shines through, In my darkest hours, Spirits of loved ones comfort me. The sound of children's voices, Echo's from my past. Now there's only a eerie silence, Just a void an emptiness. All that's left are dreams Of a time so long ago. Reality's so cold and dark, Without them don't you know. But I will always treasure, Those moments of days gone by. I promise to be strong, And hold my head up high. Then when twilight pays a call, I shed a silent tear. Thinking of our days together, And pretend that your still here." -Eerie Silence by ANN A Six Part Short Story

Fade Into Black - Shadows of the Night 5 by Solipsist

Colors danced behind my eyes, until the world fell into a haze of dark mist. Black fissures of power within arm's reach. Mine. Magic slammed into me, endless and vast like a tidal wave coming in and crushing over my head. I took it, absorbed it, glutted myself on it because it felt good. No consequences. No pain.

Mrs. Avery by RejectedConcepts

Love is strange. It exists in many forms and is one of the key components that makes humans happy, but there isn't a lot of understanding surrounding it. At least not the kind of understanding with which the average person identifies. Agnes is one of the few people that can accept all kinds of love. Despite her dated name, she is a woman in her late 20's dealing with the death of most of her family. She's now stuck in the middle of figuring out how to raise children that she never saw in her future and deciding what love means for her, when it has to exist within layer upon layer of complication. She let go of her boyfriend after almost a decade because their love wasn't meant to exist under the strain of children, only to find herself confronted with the overpowering connection of her old high school sweetheart. The same man she ran away from because their values hardly aligned when it came to how love should be expressed long term. Within the midst of learning how to raise children and balance her ever-building career, Agnes tries to recover from her mother's death, seek comfort without complicating her circumstance, and figure out why her mother would name her Agnes. Finding real comfort starts to feel impossible, as her most available options are her ex-boyfriend and her assistant. Completed! Rejected 6 times** "This one just isn't for us." By far the most plain rejection I have ever received and I can respect it. 1/22/2022 - 1K 9/28/2022 - 10K
