And Then There Were Two Novels & Stories

"Stop being so shameless. How could a strong she-wolf like you give birth to a pup that's so weak it needs to receive treatment at the hospital?" He ignored any further objections from me and slammed the door heavily down on my fingers. The gut-wrenching pain made me instantly arch my back and retract my fingers to hug my pup tightly, and I couldn't say anything else through the pain. Toby then locked the basement. He had a satisfied look on his face. At this moment, Toby and Cecilia were still grinding against each other. Barney ran toward them, huffing and panting, and yelled in panic, "Luna and her pup are dead!"

"I did my best But I guess my best wasn't good enough Cause here we are Back where we were before Seems nothin' ever changes We're back to being strangers Wondering if we ought to stay Or head on out the door Just once Can we figure out what we keep doin' wrong Why we never last for very long What are we doin' wrong? Just once..." That was the song that she had been playing over and over again inside her apartment as that was also the theme song of 'The Second Time Around', their series. And every single time she got to listen to the song, she'd tear up. It had been three days since the first episode of the series was released, but everything was still overwhelming for her. Not to mention th

“Daddy is in heaven now, darling. He won’t take you with him, I promise.” Micaela looked up at her with sleepy eyes and held out her pinky finger. Amaliah intertwined it with hers and made the pinky promise. It seemed to put Micaela at ease. “Can we sleep with you, mommy?” Madisyn asked in a pleading voice. They were traumatized at the thought of sleeping alone. Amaliah nodded and they raced to her room. She walked behind them slowly, thinking about what Micaela had said. The twins had been having recurring dreams about their father since he died, and she couldn’t say she blamed them. His death had taken a heavy toll on them, and they had refused to eat for nearly three weeks after that.

I was safe, but our pup could not be saved. Before leaving, they placed a body that resembled me to stage my death. Then, they carried me onto the helicopter and disappeared into the night. ... I woke to a familiar ceiling, the one I'd grown up under, yet it felt like a stranger's place. I was back at the Dark Moon pack. My hand flew to my flat belly. The tiny flutter of life that had once been there was gone. My pup... was gone. Tears leaked sideways into the pillow. "I'm sorry," I murmured. "I'm so sorry..."

"You heard young lady, move, walk back to the chair and hear everything quiet." And my body did exactly what he told it to do, no matter how hard I tried, my limbs didn’t even move in the opposite direction. "We don’t want to scare you dear, but as my brother did the favor of telling you, our people are at war, vampires and werewolves hate each other and live in war since the beginning of times, but now they have one advantage: money. Those damn bastards have managed to outrun our entire fortune and are expanding their territory, forcing us to retreat." He told me everything and I couldn’t even move my fucking head to the side, it was frozen with all my body paralyzed in place. "And that’s w

When Kira woke up, she found that her entire body was hurting. She was hardly able to lift a finger. She stared up at the branches of trees that towered over her. Her body was too painful to move and her stomach was cramping so hard due to hunger. She had been unconscious for two days now, the voice in her head told her. She was able to heal her broken bones but her body was still very sore and littered with bruises. She remembered how she had ended up like this. She could almost see Evan raising his gun at her, telling her how much he hated her, and then taking the shot that led her to fall to her death.

" I turned and walked away, ignoring her desperate, anguished screams. Three months later, I was performing my duty as the fire captain by training the latest recruits when I got the news that Jessica and Stanley had both taken their own lives. I looked up at the clear blue sky. At last, the nightmare that had haunted me for three lifetimes had come to an end.

He kept moving his hips fast, as he said to Abby, "Let's do it together, honey." A husband and wife also reached a heaven on earth together. The sweat drenches their body, especially the forehead area of each. Massimo stopped moving without breaking their union of bodies. The green-eyed man stared at Abby closely. Unexpectedly, the beautiful woman did the same action, so the two looked at each other. "Are you ready for round two, honey?" “What?!” ***

Completely silent. Counting. My brain struggled to catch up. Counting what? Then the technician smiled again. The same smile from the waiting room. The one that suddenly made sense. And said five words that changed everything. "There are definitely two." Nothing happened. For a second. My brain simply stopped functioning. The sentence entered. Then bounced around uselessly. Two. Definitely. Two. Beside me, Elara made a strangled noise. Half laugh. Half gasp. Half sob.

This wasn’t over. Not by a long shot.
