October の小説・ストーリー

‘You too. Suddenly, my mood shifted. Maverik tracking down what I needed was amazing. Winter and I decided that even though we mated in December we would celebrate our anniversary in May.

Maverik managed to track down the perfect gift.

Laura The thing about August is that it tricks you. July is honest. July is hot and loud and demanding. July does not pretend to be anything other than what it is. But August is different. August is the month that pretends summer will last forever. August is the month that gives you warm nights and golden light and the kind of air that feels like a hug. August is the month that lies. Because September is coming. September is always coming. And September means change. --- I feel it in my bones.

Alesha's brisk walk through the moonlit forest suddenly came to a halt when she stumbled upon a sight that sent a jolt through her senses. In the dappled moonlight, she discovered an unconscious figure lying amidst the underbrush, a woman covered in wounds and the telltale scent of blood lingering in the air. As Alesha drew closer, she recognized the familiar features of Carla, the former Luna of the Blue Moon Pack.

The leaves on the oak tree began their turning — not all at once, not dramatically, but one by one and then in clusters, the green yielding to gold and amber and the specific burnt orange that only happened in the week before the leaves released. Anya had always loved October. She’d thought about this over the years — why October specifically, of all the months that cycled through the property with their various qualities.

He thought about the section drawing the December sun line and the room teaching all the other months to Ellie through the winter and into the spring.

"Because it does." The calendar options were reviewed on a Sunday afternoon in September, with the spreadsheet open on Alexander's laptop and the two of them sitting at the kitchen table. The garden was visible through the window, the late-summer flowers still blooming, the light starting to shift toward the golden quality of early autumn. "October," Elijah said, when they were reviewing the options. "October," Alexander confirmed. "The light is right in October." Elijah looked at him. "The light?"
