He starts nibbling on my chest and starts pulling off my bra away from my chest. I couldn’t take it anymore, I push him away hard and scream loudly and fall off the couch and try to find my way towards the door. He laughs in a childlike manner and jumps on top of me and bites down on my shoulder blade. “Ahhh!! What are you doing! Get off me!!” I scream clawing on the wooden floor trying to get away from him.He sinks his teeth in me deeper and presses me down on the floor with all his body weight. Tears stream down my face while I groan in the excruciating pain that he is giving me. “Please I beg you, please stop.” I whisper closing my eyes slowly, stopping my struggle against him.He slowly lets me go and gets off me and sits in front of me. I close my eyes and feel his fingers dancing on my spine; he keeps running them back and forth humming a soft tune with his mouth. “What is your name pretty girl?” He slowly bounces his fingers on the soft skin of my thigh. “Isabelle.” I whisper softly.“I’m Daniel; I just wanted to play with you. Why would you hurt me, Isabelle?” He whispers my name coming closer to my ear.I could feel his hot breathe against my neck. A shiver runs down my spine when I feel him kiss my cheek and start to go down to my jaw while leaving small trails of wet kisses. “Please stop it; this is not playing, please.” I hold in my cries and try to push myself away from him.

I shook my head as a dark chuckle escaped my lips. “I’m not her, Dimitri, can’t you see it? I will never be her,” My voice shook as I spoke, tears threatening to spill. Dimitri ran his fingers through his hair in distress. His usual cold demeanor slipping away as he walked towards me and grabbed me by my shoulder. I felt his fingers on my chin, forcing me to look at him. I swallowed. “You don’t understand, Dimitri,” My voice came out as a whisper. “You are in love with that woman. Not me.

Normal is overrated; that’s what my mom always said. My mom didn’t know the half of it. For 23 years, I thought my biggest problem was being an adopted child of a single mom in a tiny house, then I burst into flames. My first thought was mental breakdown, but that didn’t explain the fact that real flames were put out by real firefighters, so I fled to the city. The plan had been to check myself into a mental hospital, but I’d been too afraid, so I looked for a temporary job while I worked up the courage. My first interview is where things really went off the deep end. I found myself submerged in a world of monsters, and I was one of them. By my 24th birthday, I would supposedly be set into my immortality, with supernatural powers and all. With not one, but two handsome immortals watching out for me, hatred and hostility still lurked around every corner.

She gets what she wants, which is to marry the next don of the Carbone family—and the man I've had a crush on since I was a child—Leon Carbone. When she brags about it to me, I don't kick up a fuss.

Is 'Thistlefoot' Based On A Fairy Tale Or Folklore?

3 Answers2025-06-30 17:08:41

I just finished reading 'Thistlefoot' and was blown away by how it weaves folklore into a modern setting. The novel isn't directly based on one specific fairy tale but pulls heavily from Eastern European Jewish folklore, particularly the Baba Yaga mythos. The sentient house on chicken legs is a dead giveaway - that's classic Baba Yaga imagery. But the author GennaRose Nethercott puts her own spin on it, blending it with immigrant experiences and generational trauma. The way she transforms these folkloric elements into something fresh while keeping their eerie essence is masterful. It's like seeing an old story through a kaleidoscope - familiar shapes but completely new patterns. The inclusion of the mysterious Longshadow Man adds another layer of folklore-inspired menace that feels both ancient and original.

Does Company Culture Make Staff Say I Love My Job?

5 Answers2025-08-24 18:21:20

Company culture absolutely plays a massive role in whether people blurt out 'I love my job' without thinking twice. For me, it’s less about fancy perks and more about the tiny daily rhythms: teammates who actually listen, leaders who tell the truth, and a vibe where my mistakes become lessons instead of public floggings. When those pieces line up, even the boring tasks feel part of something meaningful.

I’ve seen workplaces that hand out free snacks and ping-pong tables but still feel hollow, and other places where a shared mission turns late nights into memorable puzzle-solving sessions. Culture is the weather of a workplace—sometimes sunny, sometimes stormy—but when it’s sunny consistently, people smile on the bus ride home and talk about their teams at dinner. If you want people to say they love their job, build rituals that reinforce respect, transparency, and real growth.

Honestly, I’d focus less on slogans and more on actions: feedback loops, predictable processes, and celebrating small wins. Those are the ingredients that make folks speak from the heart rather than the brochure.

Why Do Reviewers Praise The Prose In Everlasting Books?

5 Answers2025-09-02 16:59:50

I get why critics light up about the prose in books that seem to last forever. For me it's like noticing the difference between a great melody and background elevator music: the sentences have shape, cadence, and memory. When I read a paragraph from something like 'Pride and Prejudice' or the quieter moments in 'Beloved', the language carries emotional weight—it's not just telling but singing, and that music sticks with you.

Sometimes it's the precise way an author can compress a whole human history into a single sentence. Other times it's the surprising image that makes an ordinary scene feel uncanny. Reviewers praise that because good prose does heavy lifting: it creates voice, trust, and re-readability. A line that still wakes you up at 3 AM proves craft and revision, and critics are trained to spot the small decisions—diction, rhythm, tension—that make those lines work. For me, the thrill is recognizing craft and feeling invited into a conversation that keeps going every time the book is opened.
