A Marvelous Light Novels & Stories

Chuckling to himself because a wealthy lady like Imara knew even less about the religion then he did, Ben said, “Lady of the Light.” Imara nodded. “Yes, that’s what he calls it. He said it’s in my blood.” As he softly slid his fingertips up and down Imara’s arm, Ben said, “You’re an ancient kind of creature. You’re very special. The ladies of the light decided who got to stay or had to be reincarnated when men were struck down in battle. You can drive all the darkness out of the most terrible of spaces with just a wave of your hand. I’ve seen some of that myself, Imara.”

I whispered, my voice trembling as I jumped down from the car. Suddenly, the darkness around us bloomed to life. Hidden lights flickered on one after another, revealing a sea of glowing flowers encircling us, roses, lilacs, tulips, each petal dusted with gentle golden shimmer. The faint hum of the drones faded, replaced by the soft rush of the nearby water as it lit up in hues of sapphire and violet. It was as if the night itself had bent to his will. Then, a spotlight bathed a small group in warm gold light, and I froze. Miss Martha.

She doubted that some eleventh-hour miracle would save her tonight. Christophe reappeared and shed his toweling robe in an untidy heap on the floor. He looked at her, blazing all-male satisfaction, and Lara shrank under the sheet. He stood half in shadow, half in light, the long, muscular planes of his golden body a glorious vision of rampant masculinity, and Lara felt her own hunger stirring, insidious as a secret invader.

Stephen smirked. “Yeah you’re right. This place fits me well.” They all talked for a while but now it was getting dark the moon was coming out. “We should probably go inside.” Greg said. “I think the supper’s also ready.” Stephen told. Dara kept on looking at the moon. It seemed as the most beautiful thing she has ever seen. Ellen shook Dara, “Come on honey it’s getting dark and cold.” Dara went inside with her family but she wished to stare at that beautiful thing for a little longer.

The celestial-like woman placed her hands gently on my shoulders. "Open your heart, Selene, let yourself in, and believe in your power." In the next moment, everything within me exploded into pitch black. The blinding white light faded and my vision cleared. I tried to look around, but I did not have control of my body. But what I did see made my heart sink with despair. All around me, wolves were bowing their heads to me. No. This is not what I want!

Maria's theory sounded logical and explained Nadir's sudden transformation into something more than a mere succubus. - I think we have to wait a while for Nadir to come back. I don't know why, but that's the feeling I have.- Maria said after a moment.- After all, we've got nothing else left, do we?- she added, picking up the candles, incense, amulets and wiping the pentagram off the floor.

"But that stranger became my husband. That disaster became the catalyst for everything good in my life." The man whose shirt had been ruined looked up with interest. The young barista stared at Claire like she was speaking a foreign language. "I'm not saying this man is going to become your husband," Claire continued, and Damian laughed beside her. "But I am saying that sometimes the moments that feel like absolute catastrophes are actually the universe redirecting you toward something better. You never know what comes next. That's the terrifying and beautiful thing about being alive."

"This will cling to your spirit. It will turn away ill intentions." Rita closed her eyes, letting the heat of the flames and the chill of the night sink into her bones. The school rose from the mist like a castle from a dream—towering stone walls, arched windows glowing with inner light, and an iron gate etched with runes that hummed as they passed through in Gogo's truck. Rita’s skin prickled. The air here crackled, alive with magic. Rita had never felt anything like it. "Wow," she breathed.

The light shot upward toward the largest crack. The sky shook violently. The massive shape behind it roared again. The cracks trembled. Some began shrinking. The smaller shadows hissed silently. Maria stared in hope. “It’s working,” she whispered. But then The sky didn’t just crack. It split. A giant glowing eye opened above the clouds. Larger than any building. Larger than the city. Watching. The Keeper had arrived. The combined light from Morrow, Helios, and Orion flickered under its gaze. The shadow near Maria whispered softly:

His voice blurred slightly in the wind. "I brought you here at last. Didn't you always want to see the stars here?" My spirit floated beside him. My heart ached at the sight of his aged back. He scattered my ashes gently across the surface of the lake. "You will always be the light of my life." I laughed and cried at the same time in the air above him. I felt my spirit slowly fading away. It was a sign that I was about to disappear completely, but I wasn't afraid anymore.
