Midnight Blues Book Novels & Stories

Something about a bridge being nearby is the only thing I can remember. Suddenly, the world swirls and I’m standing on that bridge with Kendric. “I fell off the cliff and then ended up here. This was our third life, for sure.” Kendric looks over at me with a confused expression. “Are you seeing this too?” A ticking clock sounds from somewhere nearby and I look around to see where it’s coming from. “Do you hear that?” A voice comes out of nowhere from somewhere above us. “Midnight is coming. Run while you can.”

“Join me!” María’s pulse quickened. She knew Evie—or thought she did. One of those American girls who lounged on the beach by day, all tanned limbs and carefree laughter. The invitation was dangerous, tempting. She glanced around—no one. The sea glowed, warm and inviting, the moonlight speckling its surface like scattered diamonds. For the first time, María understood the pull of a midnight swim. She tugged her sundress over her head, letting it fall to the sand, leaving only her thin cotton slip. Her long black hair cascaded down her back, her green eyes catching the light as she stepped into the water, the warmth wrapping around her like a lover’s arms.

Dear Reader, Thank you for walking this long journey with me. For holding Lunessa’s hand in the darkness. For standing beside Azrik through the fire. For dreaming with me, until the very end. But is it really the end? Some stories are too powerful to end here. Shaelith and Seraphira still have their tale to tell. ‘Twins of Midnight’ is coming January 2026. Set in a new age, where the world has shifted but their powers remain, only haunted by the mistake of their father.

Maya’s POV Midnight is rude. It removes logic. It removes fear. It removes clothing in your imagination before you can stop it. And unfortunately, my imagination has a favorite victim. My next door neighbor is tall, unfairly attractive, and has the kind of voice that could convince a nun to sin without even raising his tine My name is Maya Collins. I am nineteen. I am supposed to be focused on saving my family business, finishing university, and behaving like a responsible adult.

Determined to unmask my midnight phantom. Damn! What did I get myself into? The hours pass on faster than I anticipated, and right now we are already in our matching unicorn onesie Nancy bought a couple weeks ago. Mine was purple while hers was pink. We both settled in my living area, devouring the food we had ordered online like gluttons and, of course, paired with drinks. Vodka and tequila. I questioned her drink of choice, knowing full well how this would end, but she persisted and I am a fool for agreeing with her.

I pulled it out, my chest heaving as I popped the lid open with a shaking thumb. There it was. The Midnight Root. Its delicate, crystalline leaves were perfectly intact, pulsing with a faint, defiant blue luminescence against the stark white snow. We had both survived the fall. "I'm coming home, Ethan," I whispered, my voice cracking, a single warm tear freezing instantly into a diamond jewel on my cheek. "I am going to make sure you get all your memories back."

“Thank you so much for telling us.” As the others talk, Laila deftly changing the subject to discuss the spice collection we got her, I conjure a big book that explains all sorts of issues like monthly cycles, how babies are made, male and female biology, relationships – all that. It’s the same book my mom gave me as a girl and which I think Midnight probably desperately needs to read. “What’s that?” Midnight asks, leaning forward to peer at the book as I slip it into a very pretty sparkly purple backpack that I think she’ll like.

I want to bury my face in that heavy flesh and suck her peaks until she cries my name. "Anyway," Chloe said, quickly changing the subject as she looked out the window. "Are you ready for this party? I heard the hosts are setting up that wild theme tonight. The one from the dark web." "The glory holes?" I asked, my blood suddenly running hot. "Yeah," Chloe whispered, her voice dropping to a breathless murmur. "A thick velvet wall. The girls stand behind it completely anonymous. The guys pay an entry f*e at the door, walk into a private booth, and get to do whatever they want to them. No eyes. No names. Just pure, blind tasting."

I couldn’t help it—that tension between the three of us was palpable. Midnight stood up, and with him, the whole mood shifted. His eyes passed over me, and I felt the heat of his dominant presence before he even got close. I didn’t need to move—he just came up to me and, in one swift motion, pulled me off Gutemberg’s lap. "Oh." "Hey!" Gutemberg protested. "We’re going to bed," Midnight said, his voice so cold it made me swallow hard. Gutemberg, however, didn’t like it one bit. He grimaced and cursed under his breath.

We were ready. The ball would start when daylight faded and twilight emerged. I peered in the mirror my ice blue eyes were alert and ready for trouble my hair ribboned down my back resting at my waist. Tonight would be my last in the pack. Vivian was slipping on cleanly polished boots before double checking her silver moon necklace around her neck. Out of habit I played with my own matching necklace my fingers looping around the intricate chain. Matching. A gift from our mother. “Well let’s do the best job we can and then skedaddle.” Vivian joked running a brush through her hair once more.
