Midsummer 2025 Novels & Stories

That one glance was all it took to stir a memory she’d locked away years ago. It had been during the Midsummer Festival in Lystra—a night when the whole town came alive with music, laughter, and lights strung high above cobblestone streets. People danced in open squares, toasted under the stars, and believed that if you spent that evening with someone you truly loved, your bond would endure the test of time.

After Summer was sure that Kristen was asleep, she quietly snuck out from the employee entrance with her crayfish. It was already past 11:00 pm. Summer called Edwin over and headed straight to her apartment. Midsummer nights were often described as breathtaking in poetry. In the car, Summer watched as the streetlights flickered across the window. The lush greenery that lined the roads was full of beautiful flowers, and there were plenty of vibrant flowers that peeked out from the residential fences as well. Everything felt so full of life even if it was in the dead of the night. However, just as they were about to reach the apartment, the weather took a turn for the worse. It seemed like it

American Pie, Schitt's Creek, Best in Show. "American Pie guy isn't American?" He looks at me confused before Fiona leaps on his back with the royal crown on her head. It's too big for her. "This is a comedy within itself." I tease. "Oh shut up brother. Go back to your lame couch and pick out something that doesn't make me want to kill myself." "Fine." I know we are all trying to distract ourselves until we hear from the Fae's about Evelyn. For once I pray to the Moon Goddess to energize her, heal her, and protect her. Even if that means from me.

Kol says dryly, not even looking up. I blink. "Yeah, hey. So, what’s the damage today?" Kol exhales and rotates his laptop toward me. "Physics problems. Due tomorrow, and there's a midterm at the end of the week." I scan the equations. It’s been a minute since I took this, but it’s coming back. "Yeah, I know these. I crushed this intro course freshman year." "You don't have to brag," Kol mutters, sounding genuinely stung. He pulls his arms tight against his chest.

She folded her hands lightly in front of her, and I noticed the embroidered moon phases on the hem of her flowing sleeves. “Well then,” she said, turning slightly toward Shawn again, “her first hunt will need to be prepared soon.” My ears perked up. The first hunt. The same one Shawn had spoken to me about last night. “The timing must align with the correct moon,” she continued thoughtfully. “The cycle favors new wolves in two weeks.” Two weeks. “That will be the next viable window,” she added. Shawn nodded once. “That works.” Ophelia smiled again at him. A warm smile. There was nothing polite about it. Almost… fondly.

“It’s about Summer. I’ve figured out what her curse is and how she can get back her wolf. During the full moon, I think I’ll be able to track it.” “We’ll be right there.” I ended the call and shoved the phone in my pocket. Finally, some good news.

"The smart watch is going to break before the agreement period is even up." "Theo may think he got a new smart watch, but he just got himself a smart pager instead. Poor little thing." … Time passed after that, and soon, it was Theo's summer break. I was just discussing the company's development plans with Austin for the next five years when I suddenly caught sight of the comments once again becoming active. "Damn! I've been paying so much attention to the villains' daily life that I forget we're almost at a crucial point in the main plot!"

“Just remember when it strikes midnight and we pass on from this life, I will always find you in each and every life. We will stop each war that comes for our kind. Remember.” Her words haunt me as the scene shifts. “Remember that we always stop the war? But she said each life can change, so what does that mean?” More scenes swirl before me, each one different from the next. It’s like my dreams are all coming together in one last show, but I don’t know what to think. It’s all too fast and too much at once. I hear her voice telling me midnight is coming. Apparently, midnight is when we die and pass on from this life, but how soon is that? Do we make it to old age or do we just live until the

Can I do something for you? ''I was just wondering what the midsummer celebration is that everyone is talking about?'' Roan looks at me and says, ''Ow yeah, of course, I just assumed Maya or Julias told you about it already. Every year we celebrate midsummer because it is the lightest day of the year.
