Death's Daughter Novels & Stories

"Welcome back, sister. We've been waiting for you to wake up." Here, in this family with no shared blood, I felt a warmth I hadn't known in years. I slowly sat up, feeling the strength returning to my body. "Mom," my voice was calm and firm, "from this day forward, Alessia Moretti is dead." "I am your daughter." The moment the words left my lips, I felt a sense of release I had never known. The girl who humbled herself for her family, the woman tormented by poison, the daughter wronged by her loved ones. She was dead.

Familiar. From the trees, a figure emerged—a woman wrapped in grey cloth, face obscured by a veil. She moved gracefully, but every step sent a chill down my spine. Steve stepped forward. "Who are you?" The woman stopped. Her voice was like smoke—soft and dangerous. "I am the Mourner. And I’ve come for the Daughter of Death." My blood ran cold. "What do you want with her?" Steve asked, taking a protective stance. The Mourner lifted her veil, revealing eyes that glowed silver. Not alive. Not dead. Something else.

"Show them." Marcus moved to the display screen, connecting my phone. Images appeared: my mother's journal pages, documented deaths of seventh-generation Daughters over two centuries, a paper trail of payments from Council accounts to a witch named Morgana Blackthorn. "You've been systematically eliminating Selene's Daughters for two hundred years," I said. "Every seventh generation, right before their twenty-fifth birthday, dies in convenient accidents. Except I didn't die." "Luna Sera, these documents could be fabricated…" Council Member Torres began.

He didn’t know how should he persuade her. Suddenly, he looked at the little girl’s face after hearing the sounds of her sobbing. With the light of fire, he could see tears were rolling down her eyes ceaselessly. “They said my father has betrayed our country. They said my father is a traitor” She continued sobbing. “They killed my mother, my unborn brother, they killed Xin er. They thought she was me because she was wearing my clothes” Yin Yue was crying her eyes out. “I do not want to live too”

Chapter Two When they walked in the door, her phone started going off again like it did most days when they got home. One or more of her siblings would be calling to try and understand how she was now the one who would receive the most from the payouts, and then she would go and ignore her parent's funerals. Deanna was tired of talking in circles with them. She knew what the money was really for. It was for her silence. Her father, or the person she had thought was her father, had set up the meeting with David and had demanded he stop and release the girls he was holding. Calling that meeting had caused his and his wife’s deaths. He had planned it out, so it did.

Nothing about it felt right. When the old woman met my eyes, there was a fire so hot I could feel it against my skin.“No one could tell me what happened to my daughter. They said it was rouges. But the wind whispers, and the water holds memory. And when I stepped into that pond with my daughter's body ready to send her to the goddess, Nightshade was the only name I heard.” My wolf stores inside my chest, and a rock rolls in the pit of my stomach. The queen.

I say as I stand up and everyone just watches me before they stand. “Who do those ashes belong to?” Andros asks me and I look at him with sad eyes. “Her daughter. The daughter she killed. Let her rest with our family and be embraced by them in the afterlife. The way a child should be embraced by those that love her.” I tell him and he nods his head at my words and I look at Matteo and he nods too. Her daughter was innocent. She didn’t deserve what that bitch did to her. “What, you’re leaving now?” Zana asks, and I look at her and nod my head.

I sighed softly and closed my eyes. Evangeline: There is only darkness within them. They were born of evil to perpetuate it. I, Evangeline Knight, Daughter of the Moon, strip you of all your powers and condemn you to live as mere mortals. Any spell that aided your appearance will be removed, and any ability to embalm others is now forbidden to you. I opened my eyes as a lone tear slid down my cheek. From young girls, they grew old, their bones bending as age took hold. Their once silky hair was now nothing but a shapeless gray mass on their heads.

How could dad have a relative and I have never heard of her? I kept reading the file and it said that after her last delivery, it was deemed that she wasn’t able to produce any more children. And I froze when it said that. I didn’t know that she had children either. Did I have cousins out there that I didn’t know of? It said that she died when I was 15. That was only a couple of years ago, and she died the same day as Ethan’s father. That can’t be a coincidence. I think Ethan knows more about Nicole than he is telling me.
