Romans & histoires Book Of Life Death

“No one makes a single move. Don’t even breathe loudly. They still have their perfect hunting senses and if it found us, we are as good as dead.” Cain and Daniel frowned but nodded and I almost sighed in relief. I think this was their first time to encounter them, but of course, this won’t be that easy. The asshole beta growled, and a roar answered him. The sick, infected dragon has found us and we all are going to die.

"Oh my God!!" That's definitely not what my brain translated. And that was definitely not what I was expecting to hear. This day just took a worse turn. I thought if the day started out good, the day would end well. What the fuck is going on? Why so many problems in life? Why do people die?

"Who are you? And why are you here?" Jericho held his book and looked at it "Do you know what this is ?" He asked as he pointed at the book. "A book that writes the names of those who are about to die?" "It's more than that" He said as he opened the book "This is called an antabulam, or what mortals would call 'A black note' something which God gave me when he made me. He made life, he made fate and then he made Death." Lucus said as he looked at his book.

Jane’s POV “The book of life isn't a single book?” I voiced my thoughts, unable to hold it in anymore. With everything they had been saying, it wasn't just the truth anymore, it was layers of truth. Secrets buried beneath secrets. As we uncovered one, we found another. And it made everything more complicated. “The Book of Life isn’t just one,” Liam said, his voice steady but serious. “There are five.” Five? My eyes widened in shock as the number echoed in my head.

She has just left Physis' office after their conversation and she knows she can't do anything to the young man, because it will reflect on the book of life; which the Queen would know. The book of life, as the name suggested, is a collection of all life that has been born in this world; may it be a mystical being or a human, all of it are recorded there. It is also located in the farthest part of the royal family, one that only the Queen would know where to enter and exit. Parie did it once, disobeying the law of mature, and it is a good thing that she only got two years of probation from it. For Parie, those years are like a breeze and before she knows it, she was released.

To live, you have to die. Like all things born of fire and the moon, This story will begin at the end. What the hell did I just read? Was this book telling me that I would have to kill myself to gain life? As I read and reread the words, I felt a hole in my heart. There was no doubt, but I also couldn't understand how I could come to life after... leaving. I looked around the room, amazed. “Rhea,” I called my wolf. “What is this book asking me to do?” For the first time, she was as perplexed as I was.

And just like that, the covers of all four books–Nyllan’s complete works–were suddenly before me. The first book held the cover image of a seedling, a plant in its infancy; at birth. The second cover showed a green, growing bud, finding its potential and bursting through the surface of the earth. The last had been a withering blossom, brown and decaying in death. In tandem, they represented birth, growth, and death. An unassuming, unsophisticated testament of the life cycle.

"You lit the darkness that almost perished me to the pit of damnation. You saved me and revealed the truth. Your existence is the real power, Xiomara. I'm willing to die for you." Fuck. What the hell are they talking about?! My brows knotted and clenching my fist, I gritted my teeth. "I'm not worth it to die for," I loudly declared before prowling my eyes around. "Dying was the last thing I have in mind. I don't want every one of you to die because you are willing to do that for me. I want everyone to fight for their lives, for their survival, for their freedom to end this havoc. Every life matters, not just mine. Fight for yours, not mine. Live for your life, not mine. Breathe, withstand, b

I told him and he shook his head. "Be nice babe," Miguel stated and I told him of course I'd be. I picked up Rai and set him on my lap as he watched me curiously. I felt an interesting feeling of being drained when I held him but, unlike a normal person I could refill whatever life force he took from me being the son of a God. I glanced at Miguel and knew with him being Life he wouldn't have sensed it. "You're not a nice boy," the child stated with accusing eyes. I chuckled and said,"I am Death, little one and am nice to those I chose to be." Rai blinked rapidly and fussed a bit before pulling off the tiara on his head and laying down against my chest.

I give them paradise. "At the cost of their existence," Axel said. His dagger was out now, flames flickering along the blade. "They're not living. They're being slowly erased while dreaming about lives they'll never have." *And isn't that better than what you face? Fighting your way to a Core that might not save you? Facing administrators who want you dead? At least here, you die happy.* The buildings around us started to move. The walls rippled like water. The peaceful deadies we'd seen earlier were appearing again but this time their eyes were wrong. Empty. Controlled.
