The things we want are so very rarely the things we need. Clifton Heights, a modest Adirondack town, offers many unique attractions. Arcane Delights sells both paperbacks and hard-to-find limited editions. The Skylark Diner serves the best home-cooked meals around, with friendly service and a smile. Every August, Mr. Jingo’s County Fair visits, to the delight of children and adults. In essence, Clifton Heights is the quintessential small American town. Everyone knows everyone else, and everyone is treated like family. It is quiet, simple, and peaceful. But shadows linger here. Flitting in dark corners, from the corner of the eye. If you walk down Main Street after dark, the slight scrape of shoes on asphalt whispers you're not alone, but when you look over your shoulder, no one is there. The moon shines high and bright in the night sky, but instead of throwing light, it only seems to make the shadows lengthen. Children disappear. Teens run away. Hunters get lost in the woods with frightening regularity. Husbands go mad, and wives vanish in the dead of night. And still, when the sun rises in the morning, you are greeted by townspeople with warm waves and friendly smiles, and the shivers pass as everything seems fresh and new... Until night falls once more. Handy's Pawn and Thrift sits several blocks down from Arcane Delights. Like any thrift store, its wares range from the mundane to the bizarre. By daylight, it seems just another slice of small town Americana. But in its window hangs a sign which reads: We Have Things You Need. And when a lonely traveling salesman comes looking for something he desperately wants, after normal visiting hours, after night has fallen, he will face a harsh truth among the shelves of Handy’s Pawn and Thrift: the things we want are rarely the things we need. ©️ Crystal Lake Publishing

Selene Davies was heartbroken when Sunny Dale humiliated and dumped her on her 20th birthday. She felt that she had done everything right in their relationship, and couldn’t tell where things went wrong. After all, she was raised by her mother to be a lady; prim and proper. That night, she gave in to her wildest desires and threw herself into the warm arms of Declan Grayson, the personification of wealth and power. Selene reckoned that there was nothing wrong with letting herself loose and having a great night. However, what if her fling wasn't just a decade older than her but also turned out to be her step-uncle? Well, he was nothing but a fling, no strings attached, or so she thought. Regret was an understatement when she learned that Declan didn't only take her first, but also publicized their affair. He portrayed her as a slut who gave sexual favors for a measly screen time. Now, she has the black market drug, ecstasy in her system, and when it’s effects kick in at random times, she either gets laid quickly or kicks the bucket. Who, or better still, what would be her medicine, when she has no man in her life? *** "Oh my God! Why does my head hurt so much? And my whole body also hurts like crazy. Ouch!!! Selene suddenly spotted a full-grown man lying beside her, “Hey, who the fu*k are you? And why are you in my bed?” Declan only smiled beautifully, a coy smirk lacing his lips. "Take a look around, sweetheart. You. Are. In. My. Bed!” His deep baritone voice sounded in her ear, stirring emotions she swore never to entertain again, or just maybe she never really felt that way before...

Mi hermana y yo teníamos una fertilidad excepcional, un don especial que nos permitía concebir con facilidad. Ella se casó con un campesino pobre de la aldea y dio a luz cinco hijos varones. La familia prosperó y salió de la miseria. Yo me casé con el hijo del jefe de la aldea, Diego Suárez, pero solo tuve hijas. Atrapado en las ideas feudales que valoran más a los hijos varones, mi esposo me consideró una vergüenza y me mató a golpes junto a mis niñas. Al abrir los ojos de nuevo, había renacido en el día en que la casamentera vino a proponer los matrimonios. Al ver que Diego, contra todo pronóstico, eligió a mi hermana Lucía García, quien tenía una discapacidad en la pierna, entendí: él también había renacido. Creía que al casarse con ella tendría hijos varones, sin saber que él padecía un trastorno genético que le impedía engendrarlos. Señalé al joven estudiante pobre, delgado y silencioso en el rincón, y declaré sin rodeos: —¡Yo me casaré con él!

En la Nochebuena, mientras soltaban globos al cielo, la amante de Francisco Barrera encendió a propósito un fuego artificial que me dejó con quemaduras graves. Mi espalda, de la que me habían arrancado piel para injertársela a Laura Tamez, ahora estaba ahora aún más desgarrada y sangrante; aun así, me negué con firmeza a pedirle ayuda a Francisco. En cambio, protegí con mi cuerpo al nieto mayor de los Muñiz, apenas recién recuperado por la familia, y me lancé a una desesperada maniobra de rescate. En mi vida pasada, fue Francisco quien me dio una patada en la espalda para que no estorbara el paso de su amante al hospital. —Angela Vargas, ¿te divierte usar al niño como pretexto? Aunque estés embarazada, tú y tu hijo no son más que un banco de órganos para Laura. Yo misma te malacostumbré… por eso te atreves incluso a matar y a incendiar. Fui borrada de todos los hospitales, arrojada a las listas negras. Al final, morí con mi hijo en el vientre, cargando un odio que me atravesó hasta la tumba. Cuando volví a abrir los ojos, vi a Laura encendiendo a escondidas un fuego artificial, apuntando hacia el cielo nocturno. Su sonrisa venenosa me taladró los oídos: —Llévate a tu bastardo directo al infierno.

While preparing for the SATs at the library, my brother is accidentally shot and injured, causing him to bleed profusely. I pass by this scene but turn a blind eye and quicken my pace to leave. This is because in my previous life, when I saw him, I rushed him to the hospital in a panic. He had intracranial hemorrhaging, and he urgently needed surgery. I quickly called my mom, the top neurosurgeon in the city, begging her to come to the hospital as soon as possible. However, she thought I was jealous that she had taken my adopted sister to the beach instead of spending time with me. She also believed I had fabricated the story about my brother's injury, and thus refused to return. By the time my dad and the rest of the family hurried to the hospital, it was too late for rescue efforts—my brother had passed away. The whole family blamed me for his death. They were convinced that I had deliberately misled my mom and delayed his critical treatment. When my mom returned from out of town, she lost her composure and pushed me down the stairs, watching coldly as I bled to death. After opening my eyes again, I had returned to the day my brother was shot at the library.

Al renacer, decidí escribir el nombre de mi hermana en la solicitud de matrimonio. Esta vez, le concedí a Lucas Delgado su deseo.
