Sayemontess- Guiding Light.

Submitted to Contest #336

Sayemontess- Guiding Light. Depleted, and run down, Sayemontess had pretty much ended until a straggler, Dimitri, entered the picture. While the castle had been rebuilt to the finest standards, no one was home. Dimitri cried tears of joy as he reached the great castle. Could this all truly be mine? He thought. There had been a light in the heavens that had guided him from the north. He had passed through the gates unseen as if led by God Himself. It was meant to be. It had to be. It had to be all his, but he knew he could not handle it all ...

Off with the Fairies!

Submitted to Contest #334

Off with the Fairies! Trigger Warning- This short story contains some substance abuse. Part 1 As Alicia Keys’ song, “Empire State of Mind Part 2,” came on the radio, the Tesla zoomed right into New York City over the Brooklyn Bridge. “Now you’re in New York!” The song proclaimed at perfect timing. Probably the most inspirational song Bradley had ever heard. “We have a surprise for you.” Bradley’s cousin told him calmly, and Bradley got nervous, and he began to hyperventilate. What could it be? The plane ticket was a big enough surprise. He t...

Busty Bibi Trigger Warning- this short story contains Some Violence, Language, and Suicide Content. Part One- She Entered the Forest As Bibi took off into the forest, she wished she had worn better shoes, but she was pleased with her cute outfit.
