Daylight David Baldacci Novels & Stories

I was exhausted; I’d managed to doze before the patrol, but I’d been up all night and seen the sunrise yesterday, too. It had been beautiful yesterday, and it was beautiful today, too. But I watched it with a distant eye, and I felt the wrongness rise in my throat, even as the grey clouds trembled in the wind, and the last of the rain was washed away. David would never see another sunrise again. And I had left him alone, so that I could see Skye. I swallowed thickly. The flames licked across the sunrise, blocking out the pastel blush of the sky. The same colours were in both the fire and the dawn, I noted. But one signified a beginning, and the other an end.

Natasha nodded at him and saluted him. "Yes, master." Natasha replied. Natasha leaned over Dawn body carefully just not wake him up and she fell asleep as well. Yami just shook her head. [How did Natasha become close to Dawn? While Natasha is a famous and wealthy artist? Most of all. They're both David's ex.] Yami asked himself confused as he watched the two sleep and they were still hugging. Yami silently reading a book on the other side of the couch. Until someone came---- "Whoaa---what a sight?" Lance said as he came from outside. Yami eyes winded when he saw Lance and David just arrived from outside.

"My grandmother told me from childhood that there is a terrible evil lurking in the dark, so I should beware of the darkness... So I have always been afraid of the dark. I always came home before dusk and asked my mother not to turn off the light in my room. Then she would light a candle for me and put it on the bedside table next to my bed to save electricity. I stared at that flame and felt safe, as if some invisible force hidden within that flame was watching over me, protecting from all evil. However, the darkness caught me then in my dreams, it lurked, hiding in its depths overgrown creatures with huge teeth, long claws and wild eyesight. Chased by these terrible creations of my childho

Anthony I wake with a start, heart pounding because for a moment I forget where I am. Then, it all comes back to me. Diana lies next to me, her breathing slow and even. The early morning light filters through the blinds, casting stripes across her face. So peaceful. Oblivious to the danger that lurks outside this cabin, the hitman named Damon Atwell who's been sent to kiss us both because of the enemies my father made. I slip out of bed, moving as quietly as I can.

SATAKE The world outside became loud and I was tempted to open my eyes. The scenery that graced my eyes looked very different from what I had become accustomed to waking up to all my life. I tried to get on my feet when I noticed David cocooned up next to me. His hands were clutched to the book he had read me all night and his face was the depiction of a true angel. I brushed away a lock of dirty blonde that hindered me from gawking at his pretty face. I found myself strangely admitting that I found this warlock attractive in every sense and David couldn’t just be a piece of eye candy. Oh, no. He was smart, witty, inventive, and forgiving too. The more time I spent looking at him, the harder

35 This evening, David was once again assigned by Darian as a bodyguard. And of course, David gladly accepted it because he also wanted to meet Alea. His mind was restless since the incident when Alea poured water on Darian earlier that afternoon. He didn't know why he was so concerned about that girl. His life had become uneasy ever since he took away her innocence. Alea's eyes filled with hatred and anger haunted him like a spell that he couldn't shake off from his mind.

Or I could follow this mystery caller and learn whether another player — a hidden ally, or an enemy wearing a kindness mask — had been lying in wait. I picked up the envelope, set it inside the locked drawer of my desk, and took a deep breath. The woman who would have once chosen fury and immediate exposure would now wait a little longer. Patience, I told myself. Precision. Midnight would come, and with it the first test of a vengeance that had, until now, only existed on paper. CHAPTER 17 — The Taste of Vengeance (Lydia’s POV) The morning sun rose like a liar, golden and deceitful. From my bedroom window, I watched the city stretch into consciousness — the same city where my heart had shatt

The library, the fire, the scent of leather and oil, all dissolved back into the simple, dark quiet of the bedroom. Davidson’s eyes opened. The first grey light of dawn was filtering through the penthouse windows. His heart was pounding, not with fear, but with a terrifying, exhilarating clarity. He was alone in the bed, the space beside him long since cold, yet he had never felt less alone. He rose and walked to the wall of glass, looking out at the sleeping city. The Brian Corp towers were dark silhouettes against the lightening sky. For years, he had seen them as Joe’s monuments, his to maintain and protect.

one of the office help called out to us. "Yes," I answered in a professional tone. "I have been informed earlier about the appointment you had with Mr. David. Let me guide you to his cabin," he said and we followed him. We took an elevator to the 13th floor and took a right to his cabin, where the man finally left us. As much as we were soaking in all the modern furniture and interiors we were all nervous. I knocked on the door and waited for a reply. We all entered when we were asked to join in.
