A Heart Worth Stealing Novels & Stories

He smiles as he grabs my hands into his frail ones and I kneel before him. He reminds me of my Dad only this time, I’m not hopeless so I will do everything in my power to make sure he recovers even if it means having to put up with Liam and his crazy life. “She has a thing for stealing. Stole my heart and now she’s after you too.” Liam rolls his eyes as he calls Jake to the side leaving just the two of us. My cheeks redden but I remain as composed as possible to avoid giving him any reaction. Stole his heart?

It was dazzling, it looked expensive. "How did this get to you?" Declan didn't resist hooking his lips, and Josh laughed derisively. "Can you believe it?Someone had the nerves to steal it and sold it.Coincidentally, I saw it at the store, so I bought it and told Maxim about it. He's coming to pick it up and deal with the person." Ava swallowed. Someone stole the Lewis' family precious jewel. And sold it abroad? This sounded so complicated. Ava looked at the Heart of True Love curiously, "Can I take a look? I'll just take a look and promise not to damage it."

"Something that's very important to me. And in exchange, I'll help you pay off your father's debt and keep your mother safe." I shook my head, unable to believe what I was hearing. "I can't do that," I said firmly. "I won't steal for you." Valentine's eyes hardened. "You don't understand the gravity of the situation," he said. "If you don't do this for me, both you and your mother will be in grave danger. And trust me, you don't want to know what that looks like." I swallowed hard, my mind racing. It seemed like I had no choice but to go along with his demands. "Fine," I said at last. "I'll do it. But what do you want me to steal?"

And this time, I wouldn't let her slip away. As I watched Val approach from the corner of my eye, a sense of calm washed over me, replacing the turmoil that had consumed me for so long. I would wait for the right moment, the perfect opportunity to lay my heart bare and beg for her forgiveness. And when that moment came, I would seize it with both hands, knowing that true love was worth fighting for. For Val was more than just a girlfriend to me—she was my soulmate, my confidante, my everything. And no matter what obstacles stood in my way, I would never stop fighting for her. Because in the end, love always finds a way.

I say and I do not notice my voice getting high by now a couple of people are stealing glances at us but that is the least of my worries. “I did not know you were the owner of Sage Enterprises when I met you. Leo just told me of a potential client and I agreed to meet you without doing a background check. I knew you were the owner during our dinner with Leo and I contemplated not taking the job but I needed the money. You know my situation with Dad, I needed the money. When you started showing interest in me and I started liking you I really wanted to tell you. I have been fighting my demons for me to tell you but I could never gather the courage. I had planned to tell you tonight at our din

It seemed the final winner would be between Andrius and Dark Star. “Your treasure...” Victor began evaluating Dark Star. “Can protect the heart and allow the user to be revived. It’s indeed rare. However, in life-and-death battles, the enemy will aim to annihilate. Preserving the heart is nearly impossible unless someone saves you. This limitation significantly reduces its value.” The members of Dark Star remained silent. It was as Victor said. Preserving the heart in life-and-death battles was nearly impossible. Thus, their treasure was less valuable. “As for you...”

The stars above looked like a million bright specks sprinkled over a black canvas. "I think I lost something." He spoke in a muffled voice. "What? Let's get back, maybe we can still find it." Ava was about to turn around, but he held her back. "No, someone has stolen it." "What? That's too bad... What's lost?" "My heart..." Suddenly he pulled her so close until their bodies crushed. He kept hold firmly on her waist. Her heart stopped as he looked deep into her eyes. "You're the one who stole it, pretty little thief..." His eyes were sparkling like starlight.

Everyone sees her as a very strong woman and a role model to some. Deep down she has a wounded heart hoping to heal one day. Perhaps when she gets her revenge, she will be healed. •••• Miguel walked around the house with the head maid Alma assigned to show him around. Alma doesn't understand why Eva would just take in a stranger just like that without having a background check on him. "Why did you choose this house young man?." She asked him. He sighed. It's only natural for them not to trust him but he needs the money to take care of himself. He's just an orphan who's in need of money to help further his education.

His gaze seemed to be reminding me of a fleeting moment that had crossed between us which never got a chance to materialise, and I summoned my Luna essence to calm my wolf down—and also to not gag. I smoothly retrieved my hand and smiled cordially. “Luna Mills will do.” Instantly, the glow from his eyes dimmed a little in disappointment and puzzlement, as though I didn’t act according to his wishes. Well, I’m here to act according to my wishes, and no one else’s. “That bastard orphan…,” Vale gritted bitterly, “how dare he steal into my premises? When will his greed stop?” Then, he shook his head in dismay as though he’d lost a son. “What will ever be enough for him?”

My stomach churns with acid and adrenaline and just a drop of hope that’s sharp enough to bleed. I know Hale wants what is in that safe—and now I have it. Here’s to praying he doesn’t figure out how to open it. Because I need to find out what is worth my father to kill for. Worth letting my brothers just ditch me. Worth enough for Hale to steal it from my father to begin with. Does he even know what’s in it? Doesn’t seem like it. Guess it’s time to find out.
