Broken Soldier Novels & Stories

I shoot one after the other, on a rampage. He shakes his head vehemently. That bastard. How could he do this to his own son? I clench and unclench my fists. "When was this?" My heart accelerates to an erratic rhythm and it's as if he identifies the traitor before I do because it knows. It already knows the answer. The soldier grits his teeth. "10 or so years ago," he replies. My heart beats so loudly I'm afraid it will burst out of my chest, scared that every single man in this room will be able to hear it cry out. In victory, in defeat, in madness, and delight.

I see Erik and Chris close to the bed, Lilly is off to the side, Zander behind her with his arms wrapped around her waist, Elder Rose sat in a chair near the bed and in the far corner in the room stood Oliver head down in the shadows. Elder Rose spoke first “my dear sweetheart tell us what happened?” I turned to her, “I was coming back to my room when I saw…” The words catch in my throat. Chris hands me a glass of water, I take a few drinks. “Any way I saw what I saw it does not matter. Then I felt a very painful snap, it made me pass out. I don’t know how I know but I think it is the mate bond breaking.” A gasp could be heard by everyone.

he said softly. “About what?” “Your marriage.” She inhaled slowly. Most men would have avoided the topic. Or worse — approached it with curiosity disguised as concern. Calvin’s tone held neither. “It ended,” she said evenly. “And I rebuilt.” “That’s not the same as healing.” The honesty startled her. She turned fully toward him. “You think I’m not healed?” “I think you’re strong,” he replied. “But strength and healing aren’t identical.” The wind tugged at her hair, at the edges of her carefully maintained composure.

"He's fine. He is in the room next door. Concussion like you and he has a broken arm, and you have a few broken ribs." "Ya, I can feel that. Let's get the hell out of here." I sat up and instantly regretted it, but I had to push through. I needed to end this shit. Allesandro threw some clothes at me and walked out of the room. It took me a few minutes and me holding my breath in order to get dressed.

I was the greatest warrior in the pack and now I’m nothing. I’ve heard them in the hallway outside my door. I may be a paraplegic, but my hearing is still that of a Guardian. I know what they are calling me. I’ve gone from being the strongest warrior in pack, the Big Daddy Badass to nothing. No, I’m worse than nothing. I’m the Broken Warrior.

I hated being away from Lucas, from all of them but it was what was best. “Jason I need you to walk and read babe.” I ordered, realizing he had stopped walking from the shock. “I know it’s shocking, but I don’t know the exact time these tanks and soldiers are coming. We need to go” I said urgently, trying to empathize, but having no time. I know it was a lot to drop on him at once but it couldn't be helped. He started walking again. I showed him how the war started between humans and specials and how awful it was. He started to pick up the pace then.

As the soldiers positioned them on wooden crosses, their eyes widened in horror, their screams shattering the air. "Per favore, abbiate pietà!" One of them begged, his voice cracking in despair. [Please, have mercy!]

But standing here in the healing room, hearing the cries of our soldiers who’d been severely injured, I couldn’t find it in me to feel anything but grief. This was the part I hated about wars. “Please tell me it's a lie… my son cannot be dead,” a woman cried. She was the mother of one of the soldiers who’d lost his life from a gunshot. The healers tried comforting her but she only cried louder. She wasn’t the only one mourning, another soldier sat quietly beside a corpse barely recognizable from the fire burn, tears trailing down his cheeks. I made my way to him. “Who is he?” I questioned, as I took a seat beside him.

"The cursed energy laced in the attacks is interfering with the healing process. It's spreading. Our healers are too drained, and at this rate, we'll lose everyone." "We can still save them," I said, rolling up my sleeves. General Oliver looked at me like I'd risen from the grave again. "After everything, Bonnie... you're still willing to help us?" "Yeah," I said simply. "It'll be easy." I knelt next to the first soldier—barely older than me, with blood running in slow rivulets from his nose and the corners of his mouth. His breathing was ragged, his hands trembling. "You," I said, locking eyes with him. "Stop squirming for a second. Give me your arm."
