The Ghost Of Maiden's Peak Novels & Stories

Emma hid her head in my cloak and I placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder. “We’re fine Emma.” I said softly though I too was on edge. Eddy closed his eyes while Justin flipped a blade between his fingers. They were probably used to this feeling. The feeling of despair from just being near The Divide. “Where does it lead?” I questioned cautiously as we neared the gates on the far side. “Some say it leads straight to hell. Others believe the gods carved it into the land when they formed the mountains..” Justin spoke more to himself looking anxious.

Ghost simply got the job done. My jaw tightened. “The timing…” Nico nodded his head before I even finished the sentence. “That’s exactly what caught my attention.” Ghost had disappeared for nearly two weeks. During that same time, my security firm detected an attempted breach that nearly got through. Then Ghost vanished. Now Ghost was back. Ash growled. “That isn’t a coincidence.” No… It wasn’t. Nico leaned closer to the keyboard, his fingers moving quickly across the keys. “I might be wrong,” he said, “but if I had to bet…” He pointed toward the monitor. “I’d say Ghost took the contract job.”

, under her breath. That earned her a look from the corner of Mal’s eyes. He smiled at her and leaned forward towards the smoky white crystals and whispered, “Granny. I know you can hear us. Show yourself.” With an open mouth, she watched as an older lady appeared above the crystals. The kind-looking woman smiled at both of them, then settled her gaze on Mal. “You need something, Your Highness?” Claire shook her head in disbelief. The kinky ghost in her apartment came from the crystals Ramona gave her as a housewarming gift for her first and only apartment. She pressed fingertips to her temples, trying to avoid a migraine. “This can’t be happening.”

A pristine man with a champagne glass in one hand and the other a microphone, "Can I have your attention for a minute?" Everybody gave him their moment of silence and listened to what he had to say, "I wanted to welcome you all to this year's event. Mingle, have fun and get to know your mate for the night." Everyone chuckled, finding it amusing. "The rules for this night is that every man in this room would mingle with the prey they wanted to devour for the night, and someone would call your woman of the night to the room you will be assigned in. Lastly, I wanted to thank all of you participating in this event and mostly the Grim Reaper for donating a huge amount for this event to happen. Wi

"The Invisibles are only the Echo because they have no other frequency to tune into. They are like radios caught between stations. If I can broadcast the Sovereign resonance through the Eighth Peak, I can give them back their individuality. I can bridge the gap between the Gened and the humans." ​We scrambled out of the ruins, the mountain peak above us now glowing with a soft and lunar light. The geometric lattice in the sky had vanished, replaced by a clear and starlit night that felt more real than anything I had seen in years. The air was no longer thin; it was vibrant, humming with a life force that made my skin tingle. ​As we reached the SUV, I looked back at the Black Mountain. The fo

I hissed. "Over my dead body. You're not leaving at all," Drake snapped, standing tall and blocking the path. Creak! Creak! Drake and I turned our attention to the shrine door as it opened, revealing the ghostly figure of Maya, accompanied by something floating in the air. Looking closer, it was Emily; the spirit beside her was Maya. "You must be Alpha Silas' mate," Maya stated. I nodded, my eyes searching for Silas, but he was nowhere to be seen.

"Wait. I need to know. Why did, uhm, whatever, carelessly pick me?" "Go back." The woman wasn't paying her any attention. She kept on plucking cowries and attaching them to her head. "What is he? Oh, don't answer that one. He's a ghost. I know that. Why is he in that state? No, no, why can I see him? Why can l feel his touch, ghosts can't do that, can they? What does he need me for?" The old woman stopped her scaly hands from further movements and stared directly at Geneva through her foggy eyes that obviously saw clearly.

She said, the teacher sighed and rubbed her chin. "See the mountains are very strange, sadly no one knows why the markings are still there." Matilda said. They had to walk for many days before they finally reached the top, all the while, Autumn had questions she needed answers to, she still was a beginner at ghosts and this was a great opportunity to have her answers. "A soul call, what's that?" She asked Adam but Jay answered before Adam could even open his mouth.

" Felix's goal was to head to Ghosttown. According to the Shepherd Ghost, the Skeletal Demon would appear there during every full moon. After learning the date from the middle-aged man, Felix realized the full moon was in three days. Missing it would mean waiting a long time, and being "dead" now made his movements much easier. There was no need to worry about enemies tracking him. "Alright, I can tell you've made up your mind. I don't have the right to stop you. Just be careful. Madam Goddard's health is worsening by the day. "Ever since you entered Echo Cavern, she's been bedridden. It's a heartache that no medicine can cure.

They were just set dressing in this little park of his and not worth a second thought. Landon carried Sam through the endless layers of ghosts and bones until he finally stepped into the core of Grief Peak—the heart of the manifestation hidden at its very center. This was the most forbidden place of all, though Grief Peak itself was already forbidden grounds. Even the resentful spirits and shadows from the outer reaches didn't dare come within a hundred feet of it. All that remained was a silence so intense he could hear the slow, deep pulse of the void itself thrumming through the emptiness.
