Bridge Of Spies Novel Novels & Stories

"Break the... spindle... it’s the... anchor..." I looked at the spinning ivory column. It was the heart of the bridge. It was the only thing keeping the "Real World" connected to the Architects' power. If I destroyed it, the bridge would collapse. The golden grid would disappear. The "Normalization" would stop. But if I destroyed it while we were inside it... "We won't make it out, Silas!" I shouted. "Does it... matter?" the wolf’s voice replied. He was right. If we stayed, we were batteries. If we died, we were free.

They'd never once really looked at me. Before long, security had pushed them back outside the gate. Nathan tried to fight his way through anyway. But in the end, all he could do was stand there and watch as I climbed into the bridal carriage without ever once looking back. That day, my wedding went off without a hitch. With the Sea Mother as our witness, Daniel took my hand and walked me, step by step, to my husband. Ten years earlier, after my parents had taken me away, he'd waited here for me the whole time.

Not quite steady. I didn't look at him for the rest of the drive. I couldn't. Because if I looked at him I was going to think about the way his fingers felt against my jaw and if I thought about that I was going to lose whatever fragile grip I still had on the lie that I didn't feel anything for the man my mother warned me about. Theo drove. The miles disappeared. The forest thickened. Silverpine Bridge appeared through the trees like something out of a story I'd outgrown. Old wooden planks crossing a narrow river between territories that belonged to no one. Remote. Isolated. The kind of place where secrets went to be exchanged.

"Sir... candy." Several others laughed. Victor chuckled. "Load it." The soldier looked surprised. "Really?" Victor nodded. "The children of New Haven deserve to remember sweetness." The young man smiled and hurried away. Natasha watched him go. For a brief moment... She imagined Emily's face lighting up over something as simple as a chocolate bar. That thought alone made every minute spent clearing the bridge worthwhile. Nearly two hours later, the last supply crate was secured. The bridge stood completely open.

was splattered all over the wall in blood. Was this Sinthos character, what Mrs. Rosenthal was trying to warn me about? Was, Sinthos, the shadow of evil I had encountered earlier? I became dizzy from the questions swimming around in my brain. “Detective Riley, you said the majority of the people living on this street died in the bridge collapse. Is it possible, some made it over the bridge, or got into an accident beforehand?” “We can get an accurate census of the bridge incident from officers Kennedy and Lewis for possible survivors.”

The boy nodded frantically, and he continued, “They’re under the bed. He gave them to me and told me not to ask questions. Please, I swear, I didn't want to…" Adrian shoved him aside like he was nothing, motioning for me to lead the way. My hands shook as I walked into my room and went straight for the bed, then I lifted the mattress. And sure enough, there they were. A neat stack of documents. I laid them out on the desk, and Melissa, Ariana, and Adrian crowded in, their faces going grim as they read. Adrian's jaw tightened, and his voice was pure venom as he said, "Brooklyn Bridge. Son of a bitch has every detail here. His men, his timing, and his escape routes."

“There was Rophynol in every soda, vodka, whiskey, and so on.” “Why?” “Trafficking, duh! It was like a full-blown Mafia business,” Harley said. “But before these assholes could execute their plan, some men in suits barged in and stormed everyone out of there.” “What men?” She rubbed her nape. “They had guns and this broach over their pockets in the shape of a spade.” Spade? “Why do I feel like I’ve heard about the spade broach before?” “It’s obviously Mafia business, B. It seemed like one gang was interrupting the work of another. But I wonder which mob is so decent.” She huffed. “They literally stopped human trafficking.”

The others followed until only him and Maryan remained. Lidon offered his hand. He needed his role to be as natural as possible. Maryan stared at his hand before she realized what he meant for them to do. “Oh, thank you,” she said as she took his hand and they walked on the shaking bridge, the waters hissing below them. Gratefully, the new guerilla fighters didn’t think of cutting the ropes of the bridge. It was not a baseless speculation. The bridge was almost to the point of destruction so he wouldn’t be surprised if it was designed to kill them. But then, even as Lidon and Maryan walked slowly, the guerilla army didn’t make any attempt to initiate such a thing.

Spade nudged his head towards the window and Nate turned slowly, his eyes coming in contact with the beautiful view "Wow" he mused, the whole place was lit up with different beautiful lights, just across the streets to what looked like a park, there was a huge water fountain and from where Nate sat, it looked as if the water was glowing "That's so beautiful" he whispered and Spade just hummed, his chest was resting on Nate's back and it vibrated the young man, he quickly turned around and came face to face with Spade, whose lips were only mere inches from his, he swallowed suddenly feeling his throat dry up
