Hey son, how’s your mother is she still mad at me? I hope she isn’t. Well, I won’t get the answer to this question till I’m back. And hey… Don’t let her read this, this is a story I’m writing just for you. Remember when you got excited after hearing the bedtime adventure stories. The stories are about the hero who saves the day after fist fighting some monsters just to save the princess. You asked me if I went on a real adventure before. I can’t forget the sparkle in your wide eyes as you asked that question, jumping in your place, with your...

“Nicole... Nicole... come down, it's time for us to prepare for the party,” yelled the housekeeper for the young girl, while looking for her. “Will father and mother be there?” “They promised you so.” “They promised me once and twice before, but they never kept their promise.” “You are right, they never do,” muttered the old lady giving a deep sigh. “My mom and dad are never home,” she hugs her big stuffed teddy bear. “What should I do Teddy?” looking at the bear’s round black eyes, “It was dad’s idea, Teddy” talking to her cute stuffed be...

“Ohh, it’s fine, not your best, but still fine.” said the customer adding, “here, that’s your payment.” “It’s a little under the price we agreed on, sir.” “Yeah, well, your drawn art is getting a bit old for our place to show, and people aren’t drawn to it anymore,” replied the customer, “and we are doing you a favor by buying from you at this point, for your art doesn’t age well, whatsoever,” turning his back as he was walking toward the door, “let me show you the way out.” The customer added, “it has been a pleasure doing work with yo...

This is a follow-up to the three other stories I posted last month, basically the fourth part of the main story.Irk’an was the fourth son in the Torrath family, the son of Baron Victor, the head of the district council. Being the fourth child got him away from the heritage conflicts that he didn’t care about in the first place. His family was one of the biggest and wealthiest families on the west side of this megacity. The district he lives in was known for the brutal lifestyle. It is no place for the weak, the rules that built the area...

We went back to the entrance we came through. But no visible sign that shows that the rebellious group came through here. The officers left behind to watch in this spot didn't see them come out, nor report any strange movement from near that haunted room."But there is only one way that leads out from this place." my assistant said with confusion printed all over her face. “How could they possibly pass through here without being instantly noticed?”"A couple of you stay in here, and two more at the entrance of the room," I ordered. "The r...

I was gazing through the office’s window, which covers most of this city, giving me the perfect view over this doomed place. “I can see every moving, breathing creature from up here,” I said that out loud even though im the only one in the room. With the night drawing near and the dying sun making shadows all over this depressed city, instantly switching the mood from energetic and happy to gloomy and haunted. Concerned locals closed all their shops, leaving to their houses as early as any of them can. The cops gathered...

From the very first moment I opened my eyes to this unknown world around me, I was in here, in this box-shaped glass. A vast room with weird-looking glass walls. The thick layer of glass is sapphire blue, with nothing to be seen outside it. With no doors or windows. I’ve always wondered, from where I’m getting this delicious food. And where are these people who deliver this food coming from? Three meals per day, but no more than that is allowed to me. I was young and oblivious to what's around me. Accepting anything they gave m...

My eyes open up slowly as I wake up, feeling dizzy and lightheaded; it was the voices I heard that woke me up, loud songs in an unfamiliar language that I haven't heard before in my life. Even though I traveled a lot, I haven't been this high up north before. I tilted my head to see where these sounds are coming from, just to realize I was sleeping in a raft, a small one at that, it barely holds the girl next to me, and me hanging at the very edge. A ship was coming towards us, different from the one we came in. The ship's crew throw a...

I just came back home from a tiresome day's work at the office, ending one fully packed week. Worn out and feeling like a total wreck. I showered and took a seat by the window, cuddling my cat for some sheer energy while waiting for my Esther to prepare dinner. My phone rings interrupting my meal, It’s a message from my partner Zoe notifying me to examine the files she sent me earlier about a case related to the one I’m working on. I passionately kissed Milo and hugged her one more time, gently letting her know that she encouraged me t...
