Whispers of the Past (Chapter 05)
Maya's mind was spinning. With every step she took, she felt like she was being pulled deeper and deeper into a labyrinth of realities she wasn't sure she was ready for. James had urged her to leave, but something inside of her compelled her to believe that she had no choice but to uncover the final truth, no matter what.

Whispers of the Past (Chapter 04)
Maya couldn't shake the feeling that she was teetering on the edge of something enormous—something that could annihilate everything she had ever known about her mother, and even herself. She walked rapidly down the streets, the notebook Daniel had given her held tightly under her arm, its weight now a constant reminder that the truth was at last within her reach.

Whispers of the Past (Chapter 03)
Maya could not get the letters, the photographs, and the man in the photos—Daniel—out of her head. Her mother had never spoken about him, not even once, yet here was evidence. These were no ordinary letters; they were confessions, heartbreaking admissions of a love that had remained hidden for years.

Whispers of the Past (Chapter 02)
Maya couldn't help but feel that the walls of the house were closing in on her. The letter she had just read left her gasping, the burden of her mother's secret weighing heavily on her breast. Who was her mother really? And what kind of life had she lived that she had kept hidden for so long?

Whispers of the Past (Chapter 01)
Maya stood on the porch of the house she left ten years before. The house she promised herself she would never again set foot in. The house where memories she never wanted to see again were packed away in dusty corners and empty rooms.

What lies beneath the surface. Content Warning.
As I lay awake in this California king bed, staring at his dreamy face while he sleeps. I keep replaying our last conversation over and over, how he could screw his secretary like what a cliche. We've been together for over 20 years, we met in high school, he was the high school jock while I was the school nerd. I got pregnant the first time we were together. In all this time I don't even realize that I had grabbed a knife from the kitchen, walking over to my husband who loves screwing young 22-year-old girls while his 38-year-old wife is at home waiting for him to come home, I climb on top of him, as I slowly start to bring the knife down to stab him, he wakes up and he says "hey what are you doing, are you crazy?" He throws me off him and gets out of bed, yelling "I can't believe I had to marry you and have a stupid ugly son with you. I should have listened to all my friends in high school when they told me to stay away from trailer trash."

Chapter 2: The Ill Favored Clove. Content Warning.
SOMETHING IN REGINA WAS NOT RIGHT. There were a lot of things lately, but this feeling was weird. Considering it wasn’t rage, anger, or reluctant helplessness. Turning on her back, yet again, she began to feel annoyed. With a sigh of exasperation, she sat up and turned on her lamp. With a tilt of her head, mouth pouted, she picked up the folded note on her nightstand.

Chapter 1: The Ill Favored Clove
“Clover! It’s time for supper!” An eleven-year-old girl with blonde hair, raised her head from a field of daffodils and began running towards her mother’s voice. Lips thin and uneven, a protruding nose that was narrower than a match, (it was wonder how she could breathe at all), accompanied by arched, slightly bushy eyebrows.

The Shattered Oath Part 4
The chamber erupted into chaos. Vaelin barely had time to react as the Vowbound warrior in obsidian armor lunged at him, the crackling energy in his gauntlet warping the air around it. Vaelin twisted aside, his sword flashing in a desperate parry. The impact sent a shockwave through his arm, the force unnatural—tainted by Veil magic.
