Distraction Book Novels & Stories

Holy hell. When I say gorgeous, I mean fucking stunning. I don't want to stare, so I quickly distract myself by removing my backpack trying not to listen to the people around me continuing to make snide comments. I fish around for my iPad then stuff the black bag under the seat in front of me.

I pushed the book and phone aside and decided to read it later when I am less busy. Five minutes later and I was still very busy but the book kept winking at me and I have been resisting the urge to pick it up and read. I don't even read novels. I have never read one before so why do feel the strong urge to open this one and read it. Fifteen minutes later and I gave up on trying not to touch the book. I couldn't concentrate on work-related issues and kept glancing at the book. I shut down my MacBook and picked the book up again. The cover of the book doesn't give anything away. It only had the name and a picture of a cookie on it. The back too was just plain. Nothing about the author or even

And the only way I will do that is if I block out all the distractions. I need to look at this moment in my life as a redirection. Cole, Amara and Gina are not breaking up with me they are giving me a rare gift. They are giving me the gift of time, now I can concentrate on the things that matter to me the most. The things that give me peace. I look up from my textbook and its 8 pm. I studied for 5 hours, way more than I planned to do. I stretch and get out my chair. I need to eat something.

“Work keeps me balanced. Besides, it’s easier to explain long hours than… distractions.” Jenny caught the word, her smile curving a little wider. “Distractions?” she echoed, eyes narrowing ever so slightly, as though inviting him to slip and say more. He met her gaze for a moment too long before breaking it, lifting the cup finally and blowing softly on the surface. “I mean the usual,” he said evenly, careful, his tone flat but not unfriendly. “Noise. Unnecessary talk. Things that pull you away from what matters.” He sipped, using the drink as an excuse not to meet her eyes.

Willow I’m distracted as I reshelve books in the castle library. My thoughts are far away while I move the book trolley to another aisle and rearrange the books. I can’t even be annoyed at whoever put the books back in the wrong order. There are even books from a different section of the library here, and I don’t care.

I cut her off in the middle. "No ma'am, I have the keys, I'll lock it before leaving." I shook my head, not wanting to disturb anyone. "Alright, sir." She said with a smile, then went outside. I resumed my eyes back and started reading my book. Once again, just when I was almost diving deep into the book I was again interrupted, but this time the distraction was the least expected of all possibilities. I heard a buzzing sound; without a second thought I made out easily it's coming from a phone. The library was so quiet, I was able to hear even the slightest of the noises.

She was reading in her mind, then the windows started rattling as the lurking figure tried to push the window open. "Pay it no attention, disregard it completely, make it irrelevant. Your distraction would only thrive on your attention." She obeyed, strengthening her focus on the book she was reading, and the comments that had been left behind in the book in a beautiful handwriting she knew very well. Wait... this belonged to Eli. Wasn't this a distraction too? But it kept her focus from everything else, so maybe this was a good thing. Belladonna felt Alaris' hands trail the base of her neck and her attention wavered.

I waste no time finding a seat in my most preferred spot, far behind the shelf of books in a concealed and quiet corner, and open up my text book. Five seconds in and I re-read the first line to understand better. Ten seconds in and I’m not grasping anything. A few more seconds and I give up, admitting to myself that I cannot focus. Not to sound like a nerd but reading textbooks is one of the few things that could easily distract my mind when stressed out and now, it’s not working. Just kill me right now. I groan, dropping my head onto the pages. Now, what am I going to do?

"He lived painfully, sure. But whatever happened between him and our ancestors—it's not our burden. And we're not going down without a fight." I turned back to the book. "You said this information would help us in battle. How?" Golden words appeared: "Distraction." Micha read it aloud and scoffed. "Distraction? That man? Can he even be distracted?" The book glowed again: "Wisdom is the key to defeating Roosevelt." "Fine," Micha muttered. "But earlier you said you'd explain how the war started and why Princess Eloise lied about being taken advantage of. We need that." Golden words formed:

But right now I am reading a spectacular book called ‘Unwanted mafia king’ it's very interesting, and I highly recommend it. Flipping onto the next page, I heard a knock on the door. Oh lord! Who is that annoying person that wants to disturb me right now? I absolutely hate it when I’m reading a novel and someone comes to distract me- like hello- I am busy. If it’s possible I would just hide behind the moon and read as many books as I want without any distractions. There goes the knock again and I took a sip of my coffee and gently kept it on the table not wanting to
