Cold
Fascinating Fiction Photo by Quin Stevenson on Unsplash Cold I’m so cold. So freakin’ cold. I can’t stop shaking. My teeth are rattling around in my head. It’s worse than a migraine. I can’t take it. I have to find someone. I have to find someone, someone to hold, to snuggle with. I need to share …
A Trip To The Underworld
A Story Of Fiction (Prompt taken from here.) Photo by Vince Gx on Unsplash Let’s skip the semantics here. I died. Ok? Get over it. I did. I closed my eyes on one side and opened them up again on another one, completely different. I stood on some sort of transport platform. Is there mass transit …

Ragdoll
Photo by David Lu00f3pez on Pexels.com Once upon a time, I was but a girl. What did I know of the world? He came to me, in the guise of a friend, who turned into a lover. But not the kind I wanted. I tried to leave, discretely, but he would have none of that. …
You Don’t Own Me
Photo by Lucas Pezeta on Pexels.com I cannot tell you how much I resent all the emissaries that keep showing up at my door—at all hours—demanding that I swear allegiance to this Queen or that Queen—RIGHT NOW! Queen of Summer. Queen of Winter. What do I care? They are of the Land. I am of …
All The Little Fireflies
A Story of Fiction (Prompt taken from here.) Photo by Goutham Krishna on Unsplash A scout fell to our feet, out of the dark night, screaming that his Queen had been taken away by the Giants, like us, only just different Giants and we must must must help her right this moment. He lay gasping, eyes rolled up in …
