Atonement Novel Review Novels & Stories

"Now, you will call some of our... friends. The women especially. You will tell them we are organizing a small private retreat at the lake. To discuss the future, in intimacy. They will come. They are always curious." A smile, the first in days, brushes my lips. It is not a smile of joy. It is the spark of a blacksmith watching the metal begin to glow red, ready to be reforged in fire and under the hammer. "Atonement, Auracio, is not done on one's knees in the shadows.

I laughed like a lunatic, even as tears streamed down my face. How laughable that it took me until this very moment to realize that everything had been one massive, naked deception! "Atone?!" I pointed my finger right at her, screaming at the top of my lungs. "The ones who actually sinned and need to atone are you! Aria, I will never forgive you as long as I live! I hate you!" Guilt washed over Aria's eyes. She averted her gaze, not daring to look at me. Right then, Tom cradled his hand, tears welling up in his eyes. "Aria, my finger... I think a rat bit it. It hurts so bad."

I needed to make a good first impression so I wanted to arrive at the office early and make sure everything was ready for my egotistical boss. I got to the office and had to take a step back just to look at how beautiful it was. It had a gothic sort of look to it but it was also updated with beautiful floor to ceiling windows; it actually took my breath away just looking at it. The gothic scenery made me think of how fitting this building was for Mr. McAlister, scary and mean goes pretty well with the building. I took the elevator to the fifteenth floor getting more nervous with each floor passing by. I wasn’t paying attention when I came off the elevator and ran right into what I thought wa

Alois Devaraux, the first Emperor of Heaven who is known for his excellency in crafting weapons, set his own foot on the land of mortals to bring peace and execute the wolves using his very own hands. Meanwhile, in a far away mountain located in the land of mortals home a woman who fell in love with a wolf, Callista Cournellier. Upon searching for a Comfrey amidst the forest, she stumbled upon a man whom she thought of as a hunter, Louis Valentine. Their meetings did not end in this and they eventually got married. The woman soon bore a child in her womb. The gender is still unknown but a decision has been made to call the baby Anastasia if it’s a female, or Gavin if it is of the opposite ge

"I have a feeling we both have a lot to teach each other." I laughed. I knew that things were far from perfect, but that everything was heading in the right direction. Andrew and I would be together forever, and the town would recover. Audrey and Ray had been broken, but they had found the strength they needed to fix themselves. The town was broken, but it would be fixed. I was broken, but I would be fixed, with the help of the love of my life.

The police and their dogs tore through the city. Daniel couldn't keep it in. This hacked-up mess matched the Rain Mire's style from eight years ago. "What do you say?" he started. "Doesn't this remind you of Rain Mire from way back?" Robert's face went grim. The Rain Mire struck on rainy days. He got off on torturing young women and ruined tons of families.

Just as the doors were about to close, I cried out to him and pleaded for help. The image of John sprawled on the ground, beaten bloody, was still vivid in my mind. I swallowed hard, unsure if I had made the right choice. Pushing down the unease in my chest, I replied with difficulty, "Pleasure working with you." After I had packed up and was ready to leave the hotel, I happened to run into Tanner Clarkson and Willow Thorne in the lobby. Tanner had an arm wrapped around Willow affectionately.
