The Gift Of A Knife

The day has been mostly uneventful. Birthdays as a kid used to be cake-filled days of fun, but as I’ve gotten older, they are now more small-scale hanging with friends and family. I sit in my living room, just as my friends leave after our excursion, and stalk the person making their way up my driveway. Blahblahblahblah. I dont know where I’m going with this lalalalalalalala...

Normal

Nearly three hours ago, I met him. His cold eyes stared blankly into the distance. He didn't notice me yet; his mind was preoccupied with the downtown streets one hundred feet below. I could sense his longing, his desire to finally start living, though there was little I could do. I walked over to the edge of the roof, the wind nudging me forward, encouraging me to help. I was scared—terrified of ...

Coming down my letterbox, a shiver down my spine I rush outside to find the streets deserted. A humble knock is all it takes for me to look inside, And I see a small envelope inserted.

Honeysuckle and Roses

What he brought her was sweet stems of honeysuckle and thorny roses wrapped partially in a wide satin ribbon. It was so out of the blue.

She cracked open the front door—as far as the secu...

Royal Birthday

My seventeenth birthday is today. I know it's going to be a huge affair, being the only daughter of the queen, and becoming an adult is a big deal. I step out of my bed, stretching while looking at the view. I loved that view so much, it was of the teal ocean, the palm trees, and the sand. "Happy birthday Augustina!!" My ladies in waiting all ran into my room, each hugging me. "Thank you all so ...

The Night Of Blades

Baron Cumberlyn was perched upon the high-backed chair he sat in at every moment from once he seized it to the very day in which he stared upon fresh feast set in front of him. There were meats, breads, pastries, pies, and more to the content of any man’s heart. He had stacked his plate heavily with a bit of everything there could be adorning the table.

All the while his council sat abound, o...

_Dear Della Rosette, _ __ _Please m...

You Need Help?

“Brave of you to send a letter,” I muttered as I tore open the envelope. But I couldn’t help the curiosity that had sparked.

Dear Queen Reyna,

I know you don’t want to hear from me. But if you’re reading this letter it means you didn’t tear it into peices when you saw it. From our time spent together I know that you probably didn’t find that funny. I would apologize but we both know you don’t wa...
