What if the past suddenly becomes an unpleasant presence? What if the ghosts would come back to life, rampant again and manifesting themselves in a completely unenjoyable way?
And so, unintentionally, the sorcerer Rogier runs into someone, who is nothing more than an echo of a distant past... A past made up of broken promises and conspicuous blood that sullied hands and faces, in a skillful chiaroscuro technique.All Rights Reserved

The Voice Within by Robertonewyork

In a world where races like elves, dwarves, and humans are constantly at odds, Ryker, a teenage boy, is caught in the middle of a dangerous pursuit. Born half-elf, half-human, Ryker's very existence is illegal, forcing him to live in hiding with his guardian, Doc, a mysterious and skilled doctor who raised him with discipline and care. On the night of Ryker's birth, a violent storm raged, and a strange face appeared in the fire, marking his life with an air of mystery and danger. Now, on his 17th birthday, Ryker's secret is discovered, and multiple races-including gods-begin hunting him for reasons he does not yet understand. Doc, always prepared for emergencies, has trained Ryker in survival tactics, teaching him to use hidden meeting points and escape routes. But for the first time, Ryker must put these plans into action on his own. As he tries to evade capture, Ryker reflects on the strained yet loving bond he shares with Doc, recalling moments of harsh lessons and tough love. Despite Doc's strictness, Ryker knows he is more than capable of handling the dangerous world around him. He must now navigate a forest filled with guards, untrustworthy villagers, and his own fears, all while unraveling the mystery of his heritage and why so many are after him. Armed with his intelligence, survival skills, and a powerful weapon said to be able to destroy gods, Ryker embarks on a journey that will challenge everything he knows about himself and the world. As he faces powerful enemies, including gods, and confronts the mystery of his father, Ryker discovers that his mixed blood may be the key to saving-or destroying-the world.

An Accord for Development (An Elden Ring Two-Shot) by Epsonea_482

"Arise now, ye Tarnished. Ye dead, who yet live. The call of long-lost grace speaks to us all!" It was a simple, yet grand purpose to those given a second chance by the Light of Grace. To become Elden Lord and claim the Elden Ring. Many would be emboldened by the flame of that ambition, and many more would perish at the hands of those who wished nothing more than to see the Tarnished dead. Such was the way things were in the Lands Between, shattered and fractured to the point of chaos between its residents. Only a select few would be guided by Grace, however only one would truly be gifted with something incredible. A gift that would render the physical well-being of a soul... unworried in the face of death. Yet the mind of that same individual would only be further damaged from it. So what did it mean to have true immortality? A blessing? Or merely a foul curse in disguise? One Tarnished warrior would grow bitter to it nonetheless, all the while cherishing the one gift he truly had. A friend. One he would do anything to protect, and one he would grow to love in spite of fate itself. This is an Elden Ring Two-Shot story; a Male reader X Melina story.

I lost my family and everything, all because of you" Seraphine, her eyes welling up with emotions, responded, "How did I cost you everything? I lost my parents too. What do you mean?" Darain, his eyes reflecting the pain of unresolved emotions, replied with a hint of bitterness, "I lost everything because of you. Your parents were involved in decisions that cost me my family, and now you're a constant reminder of that loss."

Struck (A Vampire Novel) ✔ by CaitSarai

[Completed] Elysia's life is turned upside-down when she's abducted by supernatural creatures with demonic eyes and threatening fangs. What's worse is she has no idea what it is they want from her, except that it has something to do with a side of her that she's never known. The chances of Elysia getting out alive are slim, but perhaps with a bit of luck and a lot of bravery she can escape with more than just her life. Excerpt: ''What trick is this?'' The creature asked, but it didn't sound like a vicious question. He sounded... confused. When I didn't answer, he appeared in front of me, snatching my face in his hand once more and growling. ''What is that on your back?'' ''I don't know,'' I blindly answered, but corrected myself quickly when his grip tightened dangerously, ''It's a birth mark, the doctors called it a... a Lichtenberg figure. My mother said I was born with it, I swear it, even though it's usually what happens when you survive being struck-'' ''-by lightning.''

What if I lived? ✔️ by Chihirophie

Two hundred years ago Rhysand lost his mother and sister in a grueling murder. But what if that sister had survived? What if the head in that box was just a tree-stump, transformed to look exactly like her? What if she had instead been sold for her knowledge on the mysterious Night Court? And what if that sister would now, just a few years after the war, find her way back, but with agendas of her own? ****************************************************************************** "Alright, oh wise one, my need for wisdom has run out now, so you can be on your way now" I waved my hand. "That's cold" Rhys put a hand over his heart, " I thought we were having a big-bro-little-sis talk here." I rolled my eyes, but he slid an arm around my shoulder: "We both already know what you'll do anyway." "Oh, we do, is that right?" He nodded: "You always been so predictable, if you would write murder-mysteries everyone would know from the beginning who killed the victim." "That's weirdly specific, how long have you been sitting on that one?" I snorted. "Since you insulted my taste in art" he sniffed theatrically. I laughed: "You are one petty High Lord." "I don't even know what to say to that insolence" he shook his head.

Supernova by infamous0110

Zora always knew she didn't belong to this world. She didn't even know her real name. She never met her birth parents, having been left in a firehouse as a 6-month-old baby. Zora has bounced from one foster home to the next since she was a troubled child. Bad things, or "accidents" always followed Zora. She always felt like she was one step behind everyone else trying to catch up. Trying to be normal, but Zora is not normal. And never will be. Bryce Cullen is another lost soul in the world. He is also one of a kind. When they first met it was a supernova, two stars coming together in a stellar collision with stellar dynamics. As an evil is looming, threatening to destroy the Earth, can these two outliers save the world with powers neither utterly understand? ~~~~~~~~~~~ Zora could only shiver as: his eyes darken looking at her, becoming more onyx black, and purple bruise-like shadows appear beneath his eyes. Bryce stands at 6'2" and has a thin and lanky but muscular body. Zora felt a tiny piercing pain trying to hit her over and over, but somehow it was blocked. "Where am I?" "Who are you?" Bryce asked sternly, glaring down at Zora. "It's her!" Piper said running onto the field. "That's the girl! She is the girl from my dreams! She is the one to bring Hell Fire!" ~~~~~~~~~~~ Updates every Wednesdays! Participating in: #theseasonalcontest
