Dark Lullaby Novels & Stories

Dane started, but she had already walked right into the clearing. The largest beast snarled and lunged, fast. Too fast. I screamed. But Lila didn’t move. She closed her eyes… and hummed. It was soft. Familiar. I recognized it instantly. A lullaby. The one Zane used to hum to her when she had nightmares. “Lila…” I whispered, heart pounding. The beast froze mid-step. Its body twitched. Its head tilted, confused. She kept humming. The other two beasts stopped too.

Lyra Darkness wasn’t just the absence of light. It breathed. It pulsed. It whispered her name like a lullaby laced with poison. The Hollowed Ones hadn’t chained her, yet Lyra had never felt more trapped. The forest surrounding her wasn’t the same forest Kael had once dragged her from.

" I heard the voice whispered in my ear, a promise that made my soul yearn to reach, that made me fall to my knees, taking a deep breath as tears streamed down my face.

The same old words I whisper to myself whenever I come back to this nightmare. "Goodnight, little one. It’s time to close your eyes, The things you keep asking just let it all fly away Like birds in the sky, they’ll soon find their way But honey, just make sure to remember the promised I made That wherever you go, even the darkest days I will always be here with you, we will never be far away Because, I will never leave you..." As I run and run in the dark the lullaby keeps playing somewhere in the room. The footsteps approaching, the lyrics of the song are becoming unclear as it gets distorted changing into a deep, heavy, scary voice that seemingly comes underneath the ground.

(DOLL’S LULLABY) “LA, LA, LA, LA, LA, LA, LA.” She started to sing, humming her favorite lullaby that always marks with the tone of eeriness and dread.

The woman continued painting even though her hands are already shivering. Tears started streaming on her face until she fully breaks down. The paint brush eventually fell from her hands. She covered her face as she cries. “Sorry. I’m so sorry Linus, my moon…” He felt warm tears trickling down his cheeks. Sunny used to call Linus his moon.

"Lyra, let your sister sing for you. Like when you were little." "Okay." She closed her eyes. "Sister… after you sing… will your throat hurt again?" "No. This is the last one."
