《My Short Stories》Author's Note
Advertisement
Hello, everyone. First of all Yay! I have completed the writing challenge. I am really happy. Though at times I felt like quitting. No one is reading it anyway That's what I thought.
But I encouraged myself that some day someone will read it. I am really glad that I didn't quit. I had a lot of fun thinking a new story, new characters and new plot everyday.
At times my mind was blank, I couldn't think of anything. I had no idea. Nothing. But I forced myself to think about it. As you may have noticed, I posted all the chapters at night, that was because I pushed it to the very end. So that I had so little time that I couldn't push it any further.
Some stories were unique. Some were the same. But it was fun. I still don't know if I will find another such challenge and continue this book. But if you liked my stories, do tell me.
Every comment and vote I get it makes my day. Even if it's anything simple. Even if it's just a smiling emoji, I think about it all day.
A big shout out to my best friend who without missing a day votes and comments on every chapter I post. She is my #1 supporter and I love her.
Also thank you to for the comment on the chapter ''I will not return to ashes." It meant a lot to me. And an advanced thank you to everyone who will vote and comment in the future. I am being positive here.
This is my love to each and everyone of my readers. Whether you are a silent reader or those who vote and comment.
Also if you enjoyed my writing consider giving my other books a chance too. "The Girl In The Rain' and 'Another Love Story' are completed and waiting for your reads.

If he wishes to survive, he must learn not only how to harness this strength but how to grow and expand it, altering the path of those around him. What he doesn't know is that he's found himself involved in a terrifying plot hosted by those demons of old, a game of sorts to decide the fate of Midnight. Does Deus have what it takes to survive, or has he found himself trapped in a plot he has no hope of escaping? Note: This story has a slow-build and takes awhile for the pace to get going.

8 152Into the Feywild
I've never considered myself to be much of a fighter. In fact, I had no notion what it was all about. I couldn't envision a war amongst people, especially my own. In this odd realm, a timid half-elf has little chance of success. Especially with minimal experience. I've only fought as a means of survival, self-defense, if you will. I had known only humans, so the concept of elven culture and family was foreign to me. And yet, here I am, in the midst of a tremendous battle between two Feys and a God. I never planned for things to turn out this way, or for me to get caught in the great shambles of war—a conflict between good and evil. My two companions are practically strangers to me, knowing nothing but my name. This journey was not something I had planned or wished for, but it was what the Gods gave me.◈ ◈ ◈Meli, a young half-elf traveling the Material Plane, is unexpectedly captured while on her travels, only to become a member of an odd group of individuals. Crane, an older wizard castaway from his college for practicing unnatural magic, and Kurky, a youthful and lively gnome who is as fascinating as they come. Meli's curiosity gets the better of her as she chooses to accompany them on their not so concrete journey into the Feywild. Little did they know of the constant war raging within this woodsy plane. Maybe Meli will discover everything she's been looking for, embracing love and pleasure along the way. Or perhaps she'll become a part of something bigger. © Copyright to EmmeMeadows 2021
8 147A Warrior's Love (BL)
"Your mind is dark, your eyes are dull, your life is bleaker than feces, and your heart is covered in ash." She removed one hand to keep her veils on her head as the topmost shawl slipped down her neck. She continued to speak, "Your blood is cold. If you remain this way, you will die before you can find your love." The Krasean lowered his veil, revealing his face to us. He tipped his head upward so I can see his honey coloured eyes that were duller than his peoples'. Black eyeliner outlined the rim of his eyes, drawing attention to his enchanting eyes. "Whoever your lover is, they are your other half. You will endure hardships and pain because of them. You will also make them feel the same." She looked conflicted like she did not know whether to tell me this was good or bad. "In their eyes, you are the evilest and the godliest. How contradicting this is!" "Did you slap me?" I held the helmet between the pit of my elbow and my waist. One hand slowly reached up to rub my numb cheek. It has been forever since someone last slapped me. Now, no one who knew my identity would dare to hit me directly. "The blood coursing through your veins, it's hot and dangerous. You cannot be tamed easily and this may be the cause of your downfall." A strange grimace graced her wrinkled face. I swear to the gods she is ageing each second! "I see your fall. Someone with too much power automatically becomes a threat. You're no longer seen as an ally, but a monster."
