I hope you all enjoy it. ************Gabriel Montoya, the heir to the most powerful business dynasty in the land, believed marriage was a sacred thing, something that should not be forced or rushed. Unfortunately, his father had already betrothed Gabriel to Louisa Almendrez, the daughter of his long-time friend and business partner. Gabriel, from that day on, swore an oath - he will never marry her! He didn't like people telling him what to do with his life. But more importantly, he didn't like his betrothed. And no one, not even the scion of the Montoya clan, could make him marry the hoydenish nuisance. No matter what! .Louisa Almendrez had a childhood crush on Gabriel Montoya. The first time she laid eyes on him, her seven-year-old self thought he was an angel visiting earth, what with his perfect face and hypnotic eyes. However, after accidentally learning about what Gabriel really thought of her, all tender feelings for him were crushed - together with her heart. She swore from that day on to never have anything to do with the arrogant and selfish, spoiled brat. No matter what!.Angelo Montoya, the youngest of the Montoya siblings, had always had a soft spot for Louisa. When they first met, the eight-year-old boy thought she, with her sparkling eyes and impish smile, was a fairie. Although he became close friends with her, they lost contact when he left to study abroad. But when he came back and was assigned to work closely with her, all those years of separation melted away, rekindling their friendship. As he found himself slowly falling for his friend, Angelo was reminded of an old promise he had made to himself a long time ago - he would woo Louisa and make her his wife. No matter what!…

Written for the Mystery Party hosted by @earnestycommunityMystery writer Sebastian Chase had always felt that there was something wrong with him. It wasn't because he'd lost most of his memories in an accident. It wasn't because he wasn't even sure if Sebastian Chase was really his name, either. It was more because of that nagging feeling at the pit of his stomach that told him he didn't belong. Not in this place and time. When a mysterious man leaves an old pocket watch in his possession, Sebastian gets sucked into the intrigues of a bygone era and is forced to face the demons of his past. A past that takes him back to 1920's Beachcastle where he must track down the saboteur who took everything away from him and sent him almost a hundred years into the future.* Third Place Winner * Wordsmith Award Winner…

"Bidam, are you in love with me?" the Queen asked. The question caught him off guard and he did not know how to reply. "I asked you a question, so please answer," she said. "Pardon my insolence, Your Majesty, but yes, I admit that I am," he answered."What about Silla? Do you love Silla?" she asked. He hesitated."I understand your devotion to me, but you must realize that should there be any marital ties between us, it wouldn't be to save Yushin's life nor would it be because of undying devotion. It would only bebecause I need you to remain by my side," the Queen said. "Even if you love me and stake your all for my sake, I, on the other hand, have already given my all to Silla. After having done so, how can I now love another?" she said.…

Through Him, the universe was created. Yet here He was, mocked, beaten, abused, barely even recognizable as a man. He knew he had the power to free himself from it all, still he remained passive, silent and meek. They say that He was both God and Man. But while he was suffering, he suffered as a man. What could've been going through his mind during those last few hours? How did the man in him resist the urge to flee and free himself from such an ordeal? Why did He do it, in the first place? Was He truly God and Man? Or was he just a man who thought himself to be God?Note: This is a work of literary fiction. It is not intended to teach or preach anything.

Gone was the gentle husband and a passionate lover that I had worshiped for almost two years. In its place stood the creature that had been tormenting me these past few months. Finally, I understood. There is no going back. He is beyond salvation and we cannot get out of this together. Not alive, anyway. One of us has to die. And I'm afraid that the odds are so much against me.…
