"To the left and right, the trees were drawing closer and closer. The wind blew at my back as if it wanted to throw me off the cliff.
The cliff.
The abyss right beneath my feet. I gathered all my courage, took a few steps back, started running ... and jumped."

You lose your memory. That's what they say, happens, when you cross the fence.
The very person of you fades into the fogginess of oblivion. What comes out on the other side,  once the fog has lifted, will be nothing but the empty shell you left behind.
I knew this. I knew this very well. It had been recited to me countless times. Over and over again. And yet, what really happened was reserved solely to the one, who dared to take the leap.
And I knew I was different. I always had been. The two voices in my head had been fighting for as long as I could remember. They had slowly melted into one and I was no longer able to tell them apart.
Had I another choice? I was running out of options, just as I was running out of breath.
Staying in the North meant losing myself to darkness. Going over the fence meant losing myself to oblivion. 
But if the person I was, was really meant to die, then I would choose to be free.
I took a deep breath and counted down from ten.

Goodbye, Fenrok. Whatever happens next, is Fenn's part of the story.All Rights Reserved

She....I....... I was running through the thick branches, pushing the leaves out of my way with all my might. I had to get away. The wet, brown, ground made it easier for me to slip and let her red, chilling hands slip around my innocent, scarred body, not knowing where she would take me next. I was almost out of breath, but I had to keep running if I wanted to make it out of this forest alive. My red dress was getting torn to shreds, and my hands and feet had mud all over them. My long, bushy brown hair was getting hooked on every possible branch, making me push my hair in the back of my dress, just like I used to when I was forced to cook everyday for my loathsome 'parents'. Returning back to the real world, I had to stop otherwise I would black out. I took a few seconds to catch my breath silently, and to look around to see if she was there behind me. I was looking up at the tall, old tree when I heard a twig snap behind me. Just like in the horror films. I turned and ran in the same direction, not daring to look back and see her wretched face fixed on my body. I sprinted and sprinted, but slowed down when I saw I was heading to nowhere but a ragged cliff. The unknown would me known if I continued to run and jump. I stopped two metres away from the cliff and looked down to see a valley so far down. If I jump..... I die. If I let her take me..... the unfair horribleness awaits me. I had no choice. I jumped.

Save Me by LunarDivinity

I was drowning. I knew that. I also knew that the hands around my throat, pushing me deeper into the river water was the cause. What I didn't know was who was drowning me and why. It hurt thinking. It hurt to do anything right now. But I still screamed under the cold water and pushed the hands away as hard as I could. It didn't have much effect. I fought and fought, but I was getting weaker, and colder. The pain was overbearing. I couldn't breathe. It was the worst pain imaginable; and as the hands that were around my neck were forcibly ripped off by some unknown force, I slipped deeper into the depths of the river. My hair was straight above me along with my arms. My eyes were open and the water burned. A darkness started to pull me under, taking the pain away. I felt a small pressure around my waist, before the darkness completely consumed me. The last thing I remember is thinking, save me.

The Ivory Princess: A Steamy Age Gap Reverse Harem Snow White Retelling by elodienyx_author

My life changed forever on the eve of my 18th birthday. Instead of celebrating in the grand halls of Sylvanova's palace, I was running for my life, the threat of my stepmother's guards echoing through the forest. The dark forest swallowed me whole, and just when I thought all was lost, I stumbled upon a hidden cabin - and seven rugged woodsmen who would change everything about the world I knew. These handsome brothers offered me sanctuary, but they gave me so much more. With each passing day, I felt the princess in me fade away, replaced by a woman I barely recognized - wild, free, and hungry for experiences my royal life never allowed. Each brother awakens something different within me. Their rough hands and hungry kisses teach me more than any court tutor ever dared. But as I lose myself in this newfound passion, a shadow looms. My stepmother's reach extends far, and even in this forest haven, danger lurks. Now, I must make an impossible choice. I'm caught between two worlds. Do I surrender to this primal life, reveling in the touch of seven devoted men? Or do I reclaim my throne, using my newfound strength to fight for a kingdom on the brink? My heart, my body, and the fate of an entire realm hang in the balance. This isn't the fairy tale you thought you knew. It's darker. Steamier. And the ending? That's still being written, one tempting page at a time.

The Contract by MyWeekendIs_Booked

Something didn't feel right. I looked around my room slowly; cautiously; taking everything in and trying not to feel too nervous. Perhaps Lure was in my room right now, watching me, silently laughing to himself. I didn't doubt it. I slipped off my bed and walked around, hugging my waist, and tilted my head. I felt my rough ponytail slide against the back of my neck and over my shoulder as I moved. "Lure?" I hissed, "Lure, are you there?" I wandered around a little, for some reason feeling scared. But why? It was only Lure. He wouldn't hurt me, would he? "Okay, Lure. Quit it. I know it's you. Who else would it-" I stopped, startled, when I heard a strange sound that made me cringe. It was like fingernails being dragged across a chalkboard. I whipped around and came face-to-face with my mirror. Immediately, I saw the difference. Various scratches were displayed across the glass, forming words. It looked as if claws had written the words in the mirror. "Deepest apologies, but it was fun." (All credit goes to my sister, who wrote this when she was in the twelfth grade)

A Scarlet Crown (Scarlet #1) by xforeverbookedx

Farren was told to never go beyond the borders that separated her town from the woodland. Hearing stories of people who cross the border and never come back. But one day something makes her cross the border, and she finds a world she thought only exists in storybooks. The Scarlet Crown kingdom is to be split among the princes. Three of them will lead powerful packs, and one will rule over the entire kingdom, after all there can only be one king. He's a monster, but she made him feel human. ~~~~~ "You look really nice tonight" he compliments in a soft voice, bringing me back to earth, my eyes widen in shock "Are you saying this because of your wolf or because there are people nearby?" still dancing, I ask him quietly. "No, I'm doing it because I want to," he says, removing his head from my neck to look at me, his beautiful emerald eyes shining with wonder. Something I've never seen before. "Well, you don't look half bad yourself,"

Sanely Yours by Ashra45786543

-- PROLOGUE "Let me get this straight. We have nothing in between us, except for the deal we made that day" he spoke in a monotonous tone. "I am the one carrying your name behind me; we are married. how can you say we have nothing in between us? Huh" She yelled at him, tears blurred her vision, and she spoke her heart to him. "For god's sake, this marriage was to save you! Can't you get that? I did not do it willingly, I do not love you!!" He yelled back at her, shattering her heart into pieces. "Why can't you just love me?" She spoke, as she cried the tears of hurt, and pain. Her heart thumped loudly due to the shivering sensation She felt all over her body. "I never made a commitment to you, or gave you any false hope, neither did i say that i love you. Did i?" He asked her, in a very cold tone. She looked at him through her teary eyes. It's getting difficult for her to even breathe. "It was your eyes, the damn eyes. Who gave me the false hope. They say, "Eyes speak the truth," but what about mine? Couldn't you feel the sincerity within them, expressing my deep affection for you? Why didn't you see the love shining in them? Was it too complex to understand? Couldn't you notice the warmth as they gazed at you? They search for you in every corner, If only you realized how they silently echoed the emotions I couldn't articulate. They say, "Eyes never deceive." But what about yours? They played a trick on me when they met mine, painting a facade of a world that wasn't real. They made me feel loved, Leading me into a belief that crumbled, louder than your spoken promises. Why did they betray me? Was it your eyes or you that masked the truth?" He stayed still, not moving or saying anything at her statement. --

My Last Breath (Book one of The Portal Series) by Chinesechickens123

BOOK ONE: Having enough courage to run through the woods and away from the people who convinced me they were saving me was not how I believed I'd spend my day. Yet, there I went escaping from the only place I knew existed in the world. Being held captive was too much for me, especially when these people wouldn't tell me who they were or even who I was. The first moment in my life I recall very clearly. I awoke in a dark room, with recollection of everything that happened in the world except for one thing. I had no memory of myself existing, I didn't know where I was or why these men kept me from leaving. Days after I first woke I asked plenty of questions, and yet none of them were answered. The only thing I learned was that I was not allowed outside because the woods heald the most powerful magic on the planet, the most dangerous magic. It was more than just bad men and curiosity about the forest that got me to leave, it was a pull towards something; towards magic. Once I was in the forest turning back was never an option, so I put it in my head that I'd keep walking until I found a civilization or a nice paved road that would lead to safety. But that never happened because the forest has a force living through it. Believing that the forest held something strange was the easy part but experiencing it myself was something totally different. I didn't expect anything normal but I didn't expect to be completly engulfed into the forest. I was led by an unknown presence that made me truly believe it was a living being, and in fact it is. I was innocent then, but now I know that anything can be hidden under a small platform in the woods with a secret bigger than the world itself. I was given life that day, until it all ended months later; the day I took my last breath.

The Kingdom Thief by chlo_dance

You know that saying that goes like 'things don't always work out the way you planned'? Well I know that saying very well. It is the only thing that can explain what is happening and why my whole world has been flipped upside down. I'm part of the revolution, I've always been. The king of our little land called Terrian is oppressive and crooked, making the rich richer and the poor poorer. Although he doesn't like using the word 'poor'. People like me are referred to as the 'unfortunate'. As if luck had anything to do with our situation. So how did I get here? How did I go from being the most wanted criminal in Terrian and supporting Jack in his effort to kill the royal family to a guest in that same exact royal family's castle? The only answer I can find is the young prince who, despite his horrible father, gives me hope. Hope for a better life for the unfortunate. Hope for a better ruler. Hope, a thing I barely even remember feeling before. But I can feel as well as see the revolution stirring in the streets right outside the castle. A revolution I helped create. A revolution that was planning on killing the only thing I had faith in anymore. I couldn't let that happen. So let me tell you the story about how I, the notorious Kingdom Thief, got stuck in the middle of this war.

The Crimson To My Snow by pinea-pples

on the building roof... staring at each other... Knowing that they both loved each other to death, the cold soft wind making her hair float, adding to the tension, red and black, while his was shining through the night, whiter then snow... Controlled by the urges and the voices in her head, she grabbed her knives from her thigh straps, looked into his blues, With her darkened reds, afraid that her reasons are now winning over her feelings... "Who are you?", he asks, he knew her more then he knew himself, how can he not recognise her now? Hell even herself don't know who she is or what she is anymore... mybe she never knew? "I'm the crimson sent to destroy the pure whiteness of your snow, darling" She said with her cold tone, trying her best to hide her ache... hide her tears, The truth was all the both of them seeked, yet none of them was ready for it... Guess 'fate' had his own plans... ♡ blood and snow : Despite being named 'Eineige' after snow, she's like an uncontrollable fire, red and furious, a cold blooded killer with a fucked up mind, guided by her reasons and her blades that are always hidden under the past she seeks to reveal... she was sent to end him... He was there to enlighten her... despite being named 'Aithne' after fire, he was like snow dragged into her heat, blinded by the facade she always kept, he knew she'd be the death of him all along, yet he couldn't help but drown deeper into her flames, more and more, addicted to the sweet pain she made him feel, growing obsessed beyond limits.
