The Third Door Novels & Stories

One message. Third door on the left. Two minutes. Come alone. That should be enough to send me back. Instead, I keep walking. Maybe that is reckless. Maybe it is the same flaw that got me killed once already, the part of me that cannot leave a thread alone once I know it is connected to something bigger than I understand. The third door on the left is half-open. I stop outside it and listen. Nothing. Then I push it wider.

He could be expecting Thatcher to be showing them everything while he is giving a full detailed verbal run down. The camera finally moves toward one of the only three doors in the space. They don’t even see the hand that opens the door, the first door opens, revealing a bathroom, functional and boring. Thankfully, the vision doesn’t stay for long, just enough for a brief overview and to show no one is hiding in the space. The door closes and the distance between the doors is small, but for the three waiting with bated breath it takes an eternity. They have seen nothing so far.

Even the wind had gone quiet. The guide stopped in a small clearing. Moonlight filtered through the branches above, illuminating something that had not been there a moment ago. Three doors. They stood upright between the trees as if the forest itself had grown them. The guide smiled faintly and gestured toward them. “See,” he said. “And choose wisely.” The three doors opened. I aproached the first door. Its frame shimmered like frozen light. Cold, pale reflections danced along its surface. I stepped closer.

he hissed softly as he left the maid area. At the Devil Reign's side, in a corner that was rarely touched, Felen and Leon were standing side by side. The man brought him to this place, a place he had only just known existed. They call this place the Third Dimension. Where the princes of darkness live. There are seven black doors with a different silver symbol on each door. "Why are we here?" Felen asked confused. His intuition told him that something bad was about to come. Moreover, he left Gruga and the butterflies in Leon's palace.

One moment I looked fifteen, the next I was bleeding, crying, holding something broken in my hands. The third—FUTURE. This door was pitch black, and even though it was shut, I could hear a sound leaking from behind it—a low, guttural groan. Familiar. Almost human. I stepped forward. No voices. No Sybilla. No Ethan. Only me. And the knocking. Three times. Soft. Deep. Like it came from behind my own ribs. I reached for the third door—future. The moment I touched it, it creaked open.

On our wedding night, my wife, who almost never drank, got wasted because she was supposedly too happy. Just when I didn't know what to do, my best friend sent me a long message explaining how to take care of her. I blushed, but I still followed his instructions and soothed her the way he described. Natalie, who had been making a scene, miraculously quieted down. But just as I was about to call my friend and thank him, Natalie suddenly hugged me from behind. Heartbroken, she whispered, "Ashton Hawke, you're the one I wanted to marry." As she said it, the tattoo near her heart slipped into view: a hawk with its wings spread wide. My mind went blank. Ashton Hawke was my best friend of

he asked. “Yeah.” She replied, and he nodded. “I was told to stop all of you.” He said softly. “Go out the back door on the first floor. Your key cards were reactivated somehow.” “Thank you.” She said as she smiled and they got in the elevator, and she pressed the button down. “I didn’t see anyone standing there, did anyone else?” “No.” Everyone said.

I chuckled. "That's great, at least now I know I'm not crazy for missing you as much as I do right now," "I hate to burst your bubble, but I was calling regarding a door," I snorted as he huffed in disappointment. "Which door?" "The last door on the third floor," I said casually, twisting the doorknob. Unlike the other rooms, it was locked. Strange. "Do not open it," he said harshly with a sudden defensiveness that left me stunned.

The memories of his old home still lingered, and he couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness. As they ate, Caspien asked Arkin if there were any available condos in the hotel. Arkin replied that the seventh floor had condo rooms, but they were all occupied. 'What a bummer,' Caspien thought. Caspien didn't want to rent, so he decided to look for a condo in another hotel. Arkin teased him, saying he should just stay at his condo. "No thanks, I'd rather have my own privacy than to see you banging your girls here all around"

"That's her place. Top floor." The entrance door hangs slightly ajar, revealing a dark, narrow hallway. I push it open further, the hinges groaning in protest. Inside, the faint scent of old cooking grease and something vaguely metallic clings to the air. We climb the creaking stairs, each step echoing in the silent building. On the third-floor landing, we face a door with peeling numbers: 3B. Victor hesitates, his hand hovering over the door. I can see the conflict in his eyes - fear, hope, and uncertainty warring for dominance.
