“Cholate Cake” by Nikolle Mack

Submitted to Contest #133

It was supposed to have been easy. He had hours to do it, his boyfriend would go straight to the gym today after work and Laith himself had the day off. The timing couldn’t have been more perfect. What was he making? A cake, a simple dark chocolate cake in a little heart pan, covered in deep red icing, simple pink piping on the edges and with the words ‘I love you’ in white on top. The first try, he’d somehow messed up the temperature and was left with a heart shaped lump of charcoal and a smoke filled apartment. The next, he forgo...

“It started with a crash” by Nikolle Mack

Submitted to Contest #129

A thump, twin shouts of surprise, and the sight of a lone ski continuing on after it had escaped its owner. It all culminated in Amy laying on her back in the snow, staring up at a blue sky. After a moment, her vision was blocked by the helmet of the other skier she’d run into. “You alright there, hun?” Amy lifted one hand in a thumbs up, “right as rain. You?” The other woman let out a snort, “a sight better than you I think. Let’s get you out of the snow before you become an ice cube.” Amy let herself be pulled upright and steadied as...

“The Pit” by Nikolle Mack

Submitted to Contest #56

The pit was dim, dank, and filled with rotting leaf litter. Water had pooled into small stagnant puddles that burned the nose and creeping insects were everywhere. At the bottom of this pit, sat an elf, and a dwarf. “This is your fault,” Gizmick said, glaring at the elf opposite him. The dark-haired elf scoffed with a raised brow, “How is it my fault?” “If it weren’t for your boot, I’d have not fallen in.” Vulas sniffed in derision, “you were the one claiming you wouldn’t fall in. I only threw my boot because you can’t tell a wal...

Author bio

I'm an LGBT+ Romance writer looking to improve and maybe earn a bit of cash on the side to help. I draw, I guzzle coffee and sip tea; I sit under my old willow-oak tree. I've got a herd of cats, both in and out, and two dogs, one a short toasted marshmallow and the other a large, living stuffy. I love commissioning art of my characters, and hanging them on the wall of my space, and I like every like and/or comment on my stories. I hope you have a great day!
