Abgeschlossene Geschichte, Zuerst veröffentlicht Juli 22, 2025
In the rural town of Maple Hollow, 39-year-old Matteo Bourbon runs the Bourbon Slaughter Shack, a butcher shop as storied and worn as the oak tree in the square. Matteo is a rugged man of discipline and routine, raising his imaginative nine-year-old daughter, Yasmine, in the aftermath of his wife Clarisse's mysterious death.
One day, a nervous stranger arrives with a strange cooler and an even stranger request: store the "animal" inside for three months no questions asked. Against his better judgment, Matteo agrees. When the cooler is opened, it reveals something beyond comprehension: a semi-sentient, speaking creature, something like a jellyfish or a squid, it's scared.
As Matteo hides the creature in the cellar, life above continues with increasing tension. Yasmine is drawn to the creature's loneliness, sneaking into the cellar and forming a bond. When the creature reveals it once knew Clarisse-and that she hid it before her death-old wounds reopen. Clarisse had found the alien and tried to protect it, and her silence cost her life.
As Matteo investigates Clarisse's past, he uncovers journals, maps, and a trail of missing people-all pointing to a local man named Dale Carter. Clarisse had tracked Carter's grotesque experiments and human disappearances, and it becomes clear she died trying to stop something evil. The alien watched it all-and now, so does Matteo.
Driven by grief and rage, Matteo confronts Dale, only to discover Clarisse's severed finger-still wearing her ring-kept like a trophy. In a blind fury, Matteo murders and butchers Dale in his own cabin, returning to the shop to dispose of the evidence the only way he knows how: the meat goes to market, fed to the very community that ignored Clarisse's warnings.
The act is both horrifying and purifying.
But it's not over.

8 Kapitel Abgeschlossene Geschichte Erwachseneninhalt
Lotticia Andrews had spent her entire life behind the walls of her library. Her father raised her to be selfish, and to fear the outside, and even after his death- she never left. She and her border collie had remained- until their food ran out. Lotticia wasn't a fighter, she only ever knew how to use knives- a knife her father had taught her how to use. A knife, a dog, a journal, and anxiety are all her father left her with. And books- hundreds of books. Then a Warrior general stomps his way into her life- trampling her solitary and lonely life. He's loud and obnoxious, imposing- but there seemed more beneath his hard exterior. His personality was a weapon he wore like his armor. General Christoph was a harsh leader compared to his predecessor Zelle. The warrior who trained him and chose him to continue in his footsteps after his death. He was bitter and cynical- and didn't intend to take another woman after his mate had died all those years ago. But things don't always go according to plan- he never meant to stumble upon a small female, nor her furry big-eyed dog. Christoph needed this human, for her knowledge and the language she could help them to understand her hand language. A small group, a one-day trip- that was all it was supposed to be. But then no one expected poachers, Another human female, or the natural cycle and what it could do to the human body. Christoph had completely underestimated the trip. Now war has broken out and tensions rise- both buried feelings and skeletons come falling out of the closet. Can this spunky smart girl survive the Palace's wrath? Can Christoph face the reality that things aren't always what they seem nor black and white? Will Lassie play her part- and find her way home? Who knows- maybe humanity was doomed on Earth- but that won't be Lottie or her dog- because she's willing to do whatever it takes to get moved up to the front of the list. Even if it means dealing with the palace, poachers, and skrill alike.

NOTE: This is the companion piece to Mnemosyne's Daughter, which I suggest you read if you haven't since it will paint the picture more thoroughly than reading this story alone. ---------- He reaches for the tea cup and shakes his head to himself for the words he's about to speak. "Well, I'm not from around here." She nods, biting her bottom lip. "Where are you from?" With her words a frown develops on her forehead and Max suspects that not only he feels the déja vu this time. "Liz, I'm from another planet." The corners of her mouth twitch as if she is about to smile, but her eyes reflect fear and she too picks up her tea cup. He watches as her hands envelop the cup and he wonders why she doesn't burn herself. Maybe she just doesn't realize that it's hot, her mind on other things. "You're an alien." It's more of a statement than a question but he nods an affirmative anyway. "I know I should be screaming and running out of here or just laugh at you, but I know it's true." He waits for her to continue as her eyes scan the apartment. "We were together." "Yes." "I loved you," she whispers, still not looking at him. It's difficult to breathe and he puts the cup away. His voice is strangled when he answers, "Yes." ------- Summary: Following the alteration to Liz and Maria's memory, the I-know-an-Alien-Club is forced to live with the consequences and adjust to a life where pretending that two of their friends are strangers becomes reality.

"Death, I think I could handle. It's the waiting that kills me." Humanity is no more. Struggling out of the rubble are the Lumière and the Fos, two races whose only edible source of food is the hearts of one another, and no matter how much they eat they're eternally hungry. Perhaps they were once the same-- brothers in humanity-- but now they're brothers in cannibalism. Though these monsters may look human, it's important to remember they are anything but. They are not alive, and they are definitely not human. Kai Chrysostom's brother, Ash, just died. He was the family's Sawney, the hunter of Fos: the one who went into the white plains just beyond the city walls to hunt Fos for food so his family could live. Most days, he would arrive home, place heart after heart on the dinner table and smile at his brother, whose constant twitching and childhood disease meant he could never kill a Fos himself. Now, the task falls to Kai. Considered by most to be disabled, Kai has no hunt training, a fear of death, and worse-- a fear of the past. A death. A journey. Eternal hunger. A hunt he never wanted to join. And love. A girl Fos who spares everyone except him, and takes pity on the poor fool as he literally faints at the sight of blood in front of her. A prison. A savior. A loss. More death. And the past that demands to be remembered. And, it's great-- you've sympathized with your only source of food-- but you're hungry. And, deep down, you know you must eat. ~~~ 45,205 words! Finished! Finally~!!

(This story does occur in the True Silk universe, but it is a few hundred years in the making.) He doesn't blink, still. She kisses her teeth, folds her arms and walks away. "Fine, you wanna stay down here? You can." "Come on, man." I turn around again. "This really isn't funny -" A tall, pencil-thin figure looms behind him. Its white skin is translucent and papery and its fine, greasy black hair has been formed into matter locks. Its neck, which is slightly too long for humans, is stretched like a turtle's while its shoulders are pitted down and and hunched. If it were possible, Grants eyes go even blanker, as if the life had just left his body. It's a few seconds before his body collapses to his knees and then laggingly onto his face. The creature's slender, skeletal fingers drip with his blood, in its hand, a fresh, still desperately beating heart. Grant's heart. * Julien would be your run of the mill bad girl; smart mouth, always picking fights, doesn't take anyone's crap bad girl. She would be...if only it weren't for the fact that she is an out-of-the-ordinary vampire. That much is made very clear when she and some friends go poking around the forbidden catacombs outside of their home city. They accidentally find something ancient and murderous lying beneath its surface with ties to old, dangerous magic kept locked away for good reasons. And now he has ties to her.
