Eclipsed Desires - Justin Wungen
Chapter 1: Really Bad Day
In the small, quiet town of Evernight, where the sunsets painted the sky in brilliant shades of orange and pink, and the towering ancient forests whispered secrets to anyone who dared to listen, Isolde lived a life that was, in many ways, ordinary.
She was the town's librarian, a position she had held for as long as anyone in Evernight could remember. Her days were filled with the musty scent of old books and the soft shuffle of pages turning. The library was her sanctuary, a place where she could lose herself in the worlds created by authors long gone, where the mundane reality of her life seemed to fade away.
Isolde was known for her empathy, an ability she had possessed since childhood. When she touched a person's hand, she could sense their emotions. It was a gift, some said, but Isolde often saw it as a curse. Feeling the pain and happiness of others had left her emotionally drained over the years. She longed for a love of her own, a connection that would make her heart soar.
On this particular day, as the sun cast long shadows across the library's oak shelves, Isolde couldn't help but feel a sense of longing. She watched the townspeople pass by the large windows, arm in arm with their loved ones, and couldn't help but wonder why she remained alone. The last thing she wanted was to spend the rest of her days as the town's spinster librarian.
As she shelved a book about ancient legends, her thoughts turned to the peculiar dreams that had haunted her lately. They were vivid and strange, filled with images of forests at night, silver moonlight, and a pair of piercing blue eyes that seemed to look right into her soul. Isolde dismissed them as mere products of her overactive imagination, but they had left an indelible mark on her.
Her best friend, Alice, noticed Isolde's distant expression and the wistful sigh that escaped her lips. With a knowing smile, Alice approached, her vibrant red hair spilling over her shoulders like a cascade of autumn leaves.
Isolde, you've got that look again,
Alice said, her green eyes filled with concern. What's been bothering you?
Isolde shook her head and forced a smile. Oh, it's nothing, Alice. Just a really bad day, that's all.
Alice's gaze softened, and she reached out to grasp Isolde's hand, a gesture that always comforted her. But as soon as their fingers touched, Isolde's empathic gift surged to life, and she felt a wave of empathy wash over her. Alice's concern was genuine, and she could sense a hint of sadness beneath the surface.
Isolde, you don't have to carry the weight of the world on your shoulders,
Alice said gently. You deserve happiness just like anyone else. Don't be afraid to reach for it.
Isolde nodded, her eyes shimmering with unshed tears. I know, Alice. It's just... I can't help but feel that something is missing in my life, something I can't quite put my finger on.
Alice squeezed her hand and offered a reassuring smile. Maybe it's time for a change, my dear. You never know what the future holds.
Little did Isolde know just how true those words would become. As she returned to her duties in the library, she couldn't shake the feeling that her life was on the cusp of a profound transformation, a change that would sweep her into a world she could never have imagined.
Chapter 2: Something Peculiar
Isolde's work at the library continued, and her thoughts oscillated between the words in the books and the peculiar dreams that had been haunting her for weeks. Each night, she would close her eyes and find herself transported to a mystical forest. It was a place of eerie beauty, where the moonlight bathed the trees in silver, and an enigmatic presence lingered just beyond her sight.
The dreams often ended with a pair of piercing blue eyes, their gaze filled with a haunting mix of longing and sadness. Isolde was drawn to those
