Season Of Beasts

C. L. Westley

“We need to get the windows boarded up this week.” I knew “we” referred to me where any physical labor was involved. I had to “earn my keep” with Aunt Sophia. Her voice dragging in my mind like nails on a chalk board. I don’t think my parents had this in mind when crowning her my godmother. A life of orphaned servitude.

“I should have time after the final hunt,” angst biting through my words....

"Autumn." I said, "It's your time."

She turns back at me, golden eyes gleaming. "Summer, please. Can't you stay a bit longer?"

I glance at Winter, who clearly isn't enjoying this. He shakes his head at me.

Fall perks up from the couch. "Summer is one of the main seasons. We can't have him stay longer."

"Fall is right." Winter says. "C'mon Autumn. It takes a few months."

"Please?" Autumn begs....

Long ago, in a time much different from the present. There was a world where there were two powerful kingdoms that, while ruled differently, were cordial to one another. With lands that had lush fields and forests, and bellies that never went hungry; for its kingdoms took care of the people.

One kingdom, with a long lineage of elves who seemed to never grow old, was very powerful and respected th...

I know you heard what I said.

These shadows by my side.

Sharp click of my heels.

Quick snap of my fingers.

Down on your knees serve up.

I love the way you fall:

bow when you’re scared.

This is what a queen looks like.

Vicious, threatening, demanding.

A queen who craves someone

brave enough to stalk her.

Fire and Flames burning inside of me

Once in a while disappointment takes place

They start lit up,Under the unfortunate Circumstances and desires

Fireworks against mine

Seeing the peoples trusted the most lit it up

Knowing they sees further ahead

Pretending to ignore a sight of me!

Burning flames awakens once again every day

Every night inside of me against of me

And still blaming me in som...

1. Just Friends

Chapter 1

“Oh no, I think you’re mistaken. He’s just my friend.”

I said it again. Just as I had said it to the women at the run down grocery store, and my parents, and now, to my great exhaustion, the president of Wii Club. He looked at me, a bit startled, with that overt hint of confusion and disbelief that I had grown so very used to seeing. I knew where the disbelief came from. It was our fault, anyway....

Happiness Left With You

“…But where’s my happiness?” She cried. “What about us?! What about all those memories and late nights watching movies till the sun rose?”

“Lily…” Peter started.

She stalked towards him grabbing his collar. “You said forever!” She shoved the wedding ring into his hand, “Then you go cheat on me with some blue-eyed blonde.”

She could see the tension building up in Peter, the way his eye ...

If Nova doesn’t like Cedar, she most definitely doesn’t like Cedar’s mom, Ash.

There is something about her presence that puts Nova on edge. It’s like she feels like she knows Nova more than she does herself. Ash and Nova’s mom knew one another, so perhaps she does know a few family secrets, but that doesn’t mean she knows Nova.

For the first time, she feels out of sync with Haze. Haze seems p...

Knives out.

Cutting throats.

Gutting folks.

Counting blessings:

One, two—

Three, you.

Dead or alive.

Bodies floating.

Noose hanging.

Lovely smile;

Grinning!

I want you.

Nah, only you.

Dead or alive, ah.

Either will do me.

Hold ‘em tight.

Force a laugh.

One, two,

I see you.

Three, four,

Open the door.

And I want you.

I want you.

Dead or alive.

I said dead or alive.

‘Cause when d...
