A Thousand More Years Novels & Stories

Kade said. "The only kind worth having," I agreed. Killian set down his cup and looked at the garden, the October version of it, bare in places and still abundant in others, the specific mixture of ending and continuation that autumn always was. "Thirteen years," he said, not to either of us specifically but to the fact itself. "Thirteen years," Kade confirmed. "And the next thirteen," I said. "And the ones after that." "Yes," Killian said. "All of them."

She sat beside him, legs dangling in the air, swinging back and forth. "Great-Grandma says you stood here every night waiting for her. You waited for three hundred years." Her voice was very soft. When she said *three hundred years*, she stretched the word *hundred* very long, like she was counting a very big number. She did not know how long three hundred years was. She only knew it was a very long time. Long enough for Great-Grandma's hair to turn white. Long enough for the pine trees outside the window to grow taller. Long enough that she had not even been born yet.

Her scream reverberates through the walls, sending my heart into a frenzied rhythm. But I stay pressed against the cold surface, keeping up the act. Serena glares, her chest rising and falling. “I have lived a thousand years,” she hisses. “And I am so close to becoming truly immortal. If I have to destroy all of you a thousand times to get there, then so be it.” She gestures toward Zoe with a flick of her wrist. “Your friend and her unborn children? They’ll give me, what? A hundred years at most? But you, Piper…”

"Is he bidding for you? Didn't you tell him you were coming today?" I shook my head, a lump forming in my throat. It had been over a month since Anton last came home, and we hadn't spoken in ages. Even if I had told him, he wouldn't have cared. Seeing my expression, my father seemed to understand something. His face darkened, and he raised his paddle. "Six million." "Ten million." Without hesitation, the other bidder raised his paddle again. "Fifteen million." "Thirty million." My father's hand trembled, and he seemed to hesitate, but eventually, the paddle fell weakly onto his lap.

“To keep safe places for those lost. It has always happened that with great age many find the changing world too much to follow, the changing ways overwhelming, and they simply sleep without waking again, statues like stone.” “Yes,” Thaelen had seen them in the bowels of the castle. “Some desiccate,” he added. “And eventually crumble away.” “That is so,” she nodded again, and used her index fingers to wipe the tears from beneath her eyes. “I am sorrowful for those that we have lost, but they were lost, truly, so many thousands of years ago. How long have you lived?” She scrutinized him with a frown. “I am almost a thousand years old,” Thaelen told her. “There are amongst my people those who

Samantha's gaze was cold—just like it had been that spring ten years ago. "Zane," she said, "I warned you. If you dared to come and cause trouble for Adam, I would not let you off." His face drained of color, inch by inch. But that wasn't enough for me. I narrowed my eyes, grabbed his collar, and slapped him hard across the face. "I'll return those words to you," I said. "If I'd known you would covet another man's girlfriend, I never should have taken care of you when we were kids. I should've let you starve in the orphanage and ended it there."

she whispered into the darkness. "Tomorrow we end this war," I replied. "What if we do not? What if The Covenant wins?" "Then we regroup and try again. And keep trying until we do win. Because giving up is not an option." "Seventy five years," Mary said softly. "That is what we promised each other." "Seventy five years minimum. I am thinking we should extend that to a hundred." She laughed quietly. "A hundred years with you sounds perfect." "Then let us make sure we both survive tomorrow to start counting those years."

I decided to ask again, partly just to give myself a chance to finally let go. "Isabelle, we've been together for seven years. This is my hundredth proposal. Come on, stop messing with me." She rolled her eyes, not even trying to hide how little she cared. "So what? I've known Ron for over 20 years. Does that mean less than our seven years of relationship? "I've said it 99 times, and this is the hundredth. Listen carefully. If Ron never gets married, neither will I. That's the promise we made when we were kids. Besides, why do we need a flimsy piece of paper to prove our relationship?"

20 Centuries Luka was the first to ask his father, “why 20 centuries? That is 2000 years, that is a ridiculously long time to be alive.” The King replied, “You are not just an alpha, you and your brother are Tsunami Alphas, and can live up to thousands of years. If you find your mate, you have the option of aging as normal humans do, and pass on to eternal rest, or you can live up till any age you desire. It is both a blessing and a curse. A blessing because you get to spend eternity with your mate, and a curse because you could live hundreds of years without your mate, and then eventually cause the destruction of every living being on this earth.
