Freewill Stories

Every century, the Oracle demands her due. A life. A ruler's choice. And the future of the kingdom is secured with blood. Tonight, it's your turn. You've come to the Hall of Shadows for one reason only-to free your sister, Kainene, from the ancient bargain that has chained your bloodline for generations. But the Oracle doesn't deal in mercy. She deals in sacrifice, and she has already decided what she wants from you. Two paths tear open before your eyes at her words-save your kingdom from being extinguished and lose Kainene forever. Or refuse, and watch your people burn, your father's throne fall to enemies, your entire world reduced to ash and famine. The Oracle calls this monstrosity one word. Choice. And you? You call it a trap wrapped in honeyed cruelty. As she chants in a language older than memory, shadows twist into the faces of every sacrifice that came before you, and you realize the truth: this isn't the first time she's offered this bargain. And you? You refuse to let it happen again. When the Oracle turns her wrath on you instead, it's Kainene-freed, defiant, unbroken-who reaches back. Together, as sister and sibling, both of you make a choice no one has dared make in more than a hundred years: not which path to walk, but whether to burn the whole cruel game down to ashes. A blade forged of hope, a pact broken by two people who refuse to be currency, and a kingdom left standing at the edge of an uncertain dawn, at least no longer fed by the deaths of the innocent. ∞-------×-------∞ DELIVERANCE FROM THE BLOODTHIRSTY ORACLE is a second-person short dark fantasy story about defiance, sisterhood, and the price of finally saying no when needed.

NEVAEH is a mythic fantasy series that reimagines creation, rebellion, and the fall of Heaven through the woman history tried to erase. When Lilith awakens in Heaven's Garden, she is expected to become the mother of humanity, the answer to a divine design, and the obedient beginning of a carefully engineered future. Instead, she asks the one question Heaven cannot survive: What if I say no? Her refusal fractures more than paradise. It exposes the brutal machinery beneath Heaven's beauty, divides twin princes destined to rule together, and sends Lucifer Morningstar-the beloved, brilliant heir of Heaven-toward a fall that will one day make his name synonymous with evil. As Lilith descends into Nevaeh, the realm below everything Heaven refuses to see, she discovers a world of exiles, demons, fae, forgotten gods, dangerous children, living forests, and people who survived being cast out of someone else's perfect story. Blending celestial politics, gothic fantasy, forbidden love, mythological reimagining, and philosophical horror, Nevaeh explores autonomy, identity, power, memory, and the cost of becoming fully conscious in a world built to call obedience divine.

However, after years of failed relationships and watching her friends find their soulmates, she has become cynical about the concept of love. Ivy works as a graphic designer, pouring herself into her art as a distraction from the loneliness she feels. She often feels like an outsider, disconnected from those around her, and has almost given up on the idea of ever finding someone who truly understands her.

Growing up in a bustling city, Julian was raised by a single mother who always told him to trust the red string that would lead him to his soulmate.

He's spent years searching for meaning in the chaos of his string, questioning whether it's fate or his own choices that have brought him to this point. Despite his confusion, Julian has never stopped believing that the right connection could untangle everything, even if he's never quite sure where to start. The story follows Ivy and Julian on their journey of self-discovery, testing the boundaries between fate and free will. As they untangle the mysteries of the red string and explore the depths of their connection, they must decide if they can truly break free from the idea of predestined love or if their hearts were always meant to follow the threads that bind them.

Stair after stair, I fell downwards. The motion just felt right. I could feel myself cascading, plunging, In that sweet gravitational pull. Increasing the distance, Between myself and the surface world. Increasing the distance, between you and I, And that fictitious infancy, I condone in my mind. In one cell of my frontal lobe, You took up occupancy. A top corner suite, several stories high. You wore the clothing of the sheep, The innocent off-white of well worn Bible pages. But the truth was, for all of your charm, That you were really a thief. In the way you must devalue all things In your hemisphere You robbed me blind. I tried to thrive. But every drop I poured out in offering, I wasted. Subtly, day after day, night after night, Thorns and vines made away with another inch of me. You were the intellect's petty thief, Ducking into alley ways, Hiding behind closed doors. But even then, I never slowed my descent, to the underlying truth. A small totem of me, Crawling out from under your shadow. Suddenly, the Earth shook me until I was awake. It took no more than a word for me to renounce you, And my initiation was complete. I packed my bags in the middle of the night, And made for the door. The dark staircase looking up at me, The biblical virgin with a diminishing oil lamp, Disowned by the bridegroom's party hereafter. And even so, what had never been better, Was the coming down of darkness On that declining beacon of kerosene. I smiled and cackled and stared back at you, An escape.
