Novel & Cerita Begin Again Val Sims Full Novel

Chapter One Hundred And Six : A New Beginning Lily's POV The city air in the morning was something different—lighter, fresher, bursting with the energy of a city that never slept. Stepping out of the hotel with Simeon and Nelson, I felt like I was entering a new life. A new life free from the violence, the struggles of the past, and the constant battles for survival. Simeon had made up his mind—we were leaving, starting over. And that meant going to his company.

She felt conspicuously illiterate in his presence. “I have several of his first editions.” He picked out a book and opened it, flicking through to a page. He read aloud. “The insatiable thirst for everything which lies beyond,” he paused, turning a page, “Bending over you I thought I breathed the perfume of your blood. Night deepened like a wall and my eyes in the darkness sensed yours and I drank your breath.” Genevieve didn’t know what to say, embarrassed. Simon entered, bringing in a tray with the champagne and glasses. He opened the bottle and poured the champagne into glasses.

"Family. Purpose. A future." Brandon raised his glass. "To new beginnings." "And to endings," Simon added. "Some stories need to end before better ones can begin." Gemini looked around at her family—the one she was born into and the one she had chosen—and knew with absolute certainty that this was just the beginning of their story. "To family restored," she said, her heart full. As the sun set over the city, casting golden light through the windows of the building that bore her name, Gemini Saint finally felt that everything was exactly as it should be.

And just like that, my fate was sealed. But as I stood there, wrapped in Lazaro’s arms, I couldn’t shake the feeling that this was only the beginning. That the storm brewing on the horizon was far from over. And that the past I had tried so hard to leave behind was not done with me yet. ### SIMONE'S POV

His eyes widened slightly as his gaze roamed over my arms again and a soft murmuring came from the onlookers. “In the beginning of the simulation you can outfit your avatar and once you press ‘Start’ the simulation will begin and only end once you die or you have killed every last enemy.” “Let’s go.” My heartbeat was steady, my breathing normal and I was ready to get started. “Good luck.” It was Sorin that had spoken up and I closed my eyes and felt myself being pulled through the darkness.

Back in the Clearwater Alley of Southbury, this young boy named Simon Barnes had been with a group of rough but decent kids. A man named David Simmons had stopped her and tried to teach her a lesson. Back then, Simon had stood silently in the corner. Aria raised an eyebrow in surprise. "Are you the beast of fortune?" She had sensed his uniqueness even then. Simon was found in the same garbage heap as Sam, though Sam was slightly younger. One could not speak, and the other could not walk.

… White light flashed, and I returned to the real world. I was back in my old apartment. Everything felt like a long dream. I looked at myself in the mirror. My image felt familiar, yet strange. In that world, I had felt the depths of hate and the thrill of revenge. Everything had settled into a quiet calm. My phone buzzed with a news alert. [Genius pianist Xavier Zane announces a global tour. Tickets sold out instantly!] I froze. Xavier Zane? I clicked on the article and saw a face that I could never forget.

Davis only sighed loudly, folding his arms. Simone stood up abruptly, wiping at her tears. “Okay, let’s say I did it.” Her voice cracked. “Why? What reason would I have to do something like that to my master’s sister?” Her chest rose and fell rapidly. “She’s also my master. I would never do that to her.” Davis took a slow step forward, his eyes narrowing slightly. “I really want to believe you, Simone,” he said. “I do.” “But remember,” Davis continued, “when you first started working here… Skylar spilled cold water on you.”

Simon said blatantly, his eyebrows raising to his hairline. “Well, when you say it like that, it sure sounds like, I don’t know-“ I stumbled over my sentence but was quickly cut off by Simons lips catching me in a bruising kiss, as he pushed me back down onto the table. I squealed as my back hit the hardwood, and he chuckled against my mouth. He pushed himself to tower over me, looking down at my small form like a god among men. “Let me show you what you’ve been missing then.” He said, an evil glint in his eye, before settling himself back on his knees, and back in between my thighs.
