Every tree looks the same in this forest. Crooked branches lurch threateningly, leering faces scarring their trunks. Their roots tumble and fall from below, perfect for tripping over. A stumble here, a stumble there.
Twigs snap idly on the forest floor, setting her heart racing at every noise. Succumbing to the shadows seems inevitable, but she can’t allow that.  She has to get home, somehow. Suddenly, a cloth falls over her eyes, making her scream. However, like when a tree falls in a forest and no one is around, there is no sound.

Whispered Shadows by Laconie1975

Years ago, a group of close friends ventured into the secluded Black Hollow Cabin for a weekend getaway. What started as laughter and camaraderie quickly turned into a nightmare when one of them, Emma, vanished without a trace, leaving behind only whispered warnings and shadowy figures lurking in the dark. Stricken with guilt and fear, the remaining friends fled, swearing never to speak of that night again. Now, years later, the past refuses to stay buried. Maya, one of the surviving friends, receives an unsettling invitation to a reunion at the same cabin on Halloween night. Against her better judgment, she joins the gathering, hoping for answers but dreading what she might uncover. As the group reunites, old tensions surface, and eerie occurrences begin: shadows that move without light, whispers that echo in empty rooms, and unsettling reminders of the night Emma disappeared. When one of the friends goes missing under similar circumstances, the group realizes they are being hunted by a malevolent force tied to their betrayal. With secrets unraveling and the shadows closing in, Maya and her friends must confront the truth about what really happened that fateful night. But the deeper they dig, the clearer it becomes: someone-or something-knows their darkest sins and won't stop until justice is served. In "Whispered Shadows," betrayal isn't the only thing that lingers. Whispers of vengeance echo through the night, and shadows of the past may be their undoing.

When Angels Fall by vylbite

Iris never believed in angels. Or demons. Or anything beyond the ordinary hum of life. School, homework, and late-night drives with her best friend-that was real. Then a new student arrives. Cassiel. Beautiful, silent, wrong. There's something about him that doesn't fit, something that makes the air too thick when he's near. She tries to ignore him. Pretend she doesn't notice how his shadow bends the wrong way, how his reflection sometimes isn't his. But then the world starts to change. People disappear. The sky bleeds. And something is hunting Cassiel-something that knows Iris' name, though she's never spoken to it. She should run. She should forget him. But it's too late for that. Because when angels fall, they don't fall alone.

The Shadows Have No Face || 𝐀𝐂𝐎𝐓𝐀𝐑 by Kermit_is_on_fire

With the war against Hybern over, Prythian is finally able to breathe. That is, until four women are brought into a dream where they discover that they are more closely connected to the Cauldron than they once thought, and are now in grave danger. Things have awoken from deep beneath the earth. The power of the Cauldron broke the spells holding them back, and they are now on the hunt for it. They will stop at nothing until they have it. Monsters from another time, beings with enough power to reshape the world, and all they need is the Cauldron. Niana searches for those that share her connection, leading her to the Night Court. What she didn't plan for, though, was to be thrown into a past she desperately wished to forget. Secrets are forcibly brought to the light, and unknown feelings spark between herself and the one person she can't stand. ✩ ✩ ✩ "Take off your glamor," he said against my lips, voice rough.

Eternal: Azriel by emwritesbookstories

Eternal: (adj.) Lasting or existing forever; without end or beginning Athanasia never complained about her situation. She never felt like she had the right to. A random event leads her to befriend a small boy. A boy that she believed she would never see again. His situation was heartbreaking, she knew that there are others that are more unfortunate just like him. However, this one encounter changes everything she expected of herself, gave her freedom when the world only wants to swallow her up. --- "Why are you doing this? Why are you befriending me? Though we met five hundred years ago, why do you still bring me into your life? So much can happen in that many years but instead of staying with your friends or finding other things to do, you're with me. Why?" I ask again. Though I don't like being so forward, I can't help it. I'm scared to hurt him. He shifts his gaze to me. His hazel eyes gleam into my blue ones as if he knows something that I don't. "You're right. I had five hundred years, five hundred years to stay with my friends and five hundred years to find other hobbies." He pauses, taking in breath. "But I had five hundred years without you, we only had two weeks together. And those two weeks were the best I've ever had. That's why I want to continue them-with you, Athy." --- Disclaimer: All ACOTAR characters and plot belong to Sarah J. Maas. My characters and scenes are my own work.

The Elf by yourempress_

I sloshed through the rain,cursing at the noises I was making. A purple light whizzed through the air,hitting the tree to my left. I swerved to the right and slammed headfirst into a tree. Gods I hate this forest, my "HOME". I flipped up off the floor and started running again "You know we can't just let you leave,at least not alive",she responds.
