When Triumph Turns Silent/ Letting go is an option.

When Triumph Turns Silent The first time Elira understood abandonment, she was six. Her mother left her in the orchard behind their crumbling house with nothing but a slice of bread, whispering that she would be back before dusk. Elira waited until the sun slid behind the mountains and the air grew too cold for bare feet, but her mother never returned. It was her stepmother who found her curled beneath the branches, clutching the bread as though it was a talisman. The woman’s eyes shone a strange green, darker than moss, brighter than malice...

Flames to Love

Weekly Contest #63
