District 9 Book Novels & Stories

Caleb nodded and led me to the car. - Dinner that night was with both our families. Mom smiled with relief when she saw me and Caleb enter. Then she told me that Dad refused to divorce, so she had already filed through the courts. After dinner, Caleb drove me home. From a distance, I spotted someone familiar standing at the doorway. Hearing the car, Hayden turned. When he saw Caleb in the driver's seat, a flash of displeasure crossed his eyes. The moment I stepped out, Hayden came forward and handed me a box.

"Seth, I just realized something. You're so naive, aren't you? "Did you really think I brought you water from the top of a mountain? Look at me! I'm too small to climb a mountain." "Then what was that water you gave me?" "Oh, that? When I visited the Sarikash Highlands, I filled a bottle with tap water. Oh, wait! I actually dumped that out and replaced it with dirty river water later." Seth glared at me, not wanting to believe a word. "That can't be true." I shrugged with a smirk. "Well, if you don't believe it, there's nothing I can do."

“I want to see what you look like when you’re happy and no one is watching.” “Everyone is always watching.” “Then we’ll pretend they aren’t and hope they believe us.” The city unspooled beyond the glass, a ribbon of brick and steam, laundromats and blue awnings, sidewalks that knew too many stories. He didn’t take her toward the obvious district; he turned into streets that smelled like bread and cut flowers, away from the cameras that liked names too much. The first stop was a bookstore—new to her, with high windows and an owner whose glasses were always slipping down his nose, the kind of place where you can hear paper breathe.

Instead of carrying tactical documents, his hand reached out to hand me a bottle of warm almond milk and a slice of soft whole-grain bread. "I heard your stomach's been acting up, right?" he asked with a sincere, soothing smile. "Thank you," I replied, accepting his gift and sipping the warm milk slowly. The warmth spread through me, slightly lightening the weight on my chest. I cast my gaze back toward the children's joyful laughter echoing in the corner of the park. However, the warmth that had briefly settled in my heart was slowly eroded by a sudden sense of dread creeping up. How ironic. Behind the innocent laughter of these children lies a dark world coexisting with them. A world where

******* HOURS LATER Audrey sat in Damien’s study and went through his books, she felt bored and couldn't fall asleep so she decided to go through his books in his study. She found out he had an interest in horror books, mostly about serial killers, she wasn't surprised though, it's obvious he can't have an interest in normal things. She suddenly heard a thud outside the hallway and she froze. “It's probably the guards.” She mumbled and continued with the book. The door suddenly opened and she flinched, she saw a man dressed in black, he wore a face cap and a mask, she couldn't see his face clearly. “Who are you?” She asked in fear and he walked towards her.

"Even me?! I hold the highest authority in the Snowclaw Pack, and I don't have clearance?" The Beta nearly collapsed. "Alpha, maybe ask the pack elders. They might know what's going on." Garrick's chest rose and fell sharply. After a long moment, he forced himself to calm down. He lowered his gaze to Rowena's phone and powered it on. The lock screen lit up and asked for a password. He entered her birthday first. Wrong. Then he typed his own. The screen unlocked. Garrick's expression softened. "I knew it. No matter what happens, I still come first in her heart. Wena has always placed me above everything else."

"Why did you leave in such a rush, Mr. Sable? I wanted to go for another round. It's such a thrill to make love to you on your wedding anniversary, and while wearing your wife's gown, too. "Don't forget what you promised me, okay? The next time she leaves for the office, we'll do it in her bed! Mr. Sable? Are you there? Why aren't you saying anything?" I ended the call. All the color had drained from my face. When Bryan, wrapped in a towel, came out of the bathroom, he saw me sitting by the window with a document in hand. "Stella? What's that?" he asked. I didn't turn around. Looking out at the high-rise buildings in the distance, I said coolly, "Bryan, I want Star Tower, the building locate

Natalina's POV The sheets were a tangled mess, so it was all too easy to picture what had happened just moments before. I took a deep breath and looked at Antonio Ragusa, doing my best to stay calm, "Didn't we have an agreement, Antonio? You can play around all you want, but you're not allowed to bring them home. "Besides, you clearly know what day today is." Antonio chuckled indifferently and struck a match to light a cigar. "There was a shootout downtown last night. It wasn't safe, so I brought her home to lay low."

Office Gray says, bowing slightly alongside his partner before they both walk back to their car. I stare once again at the once upon a time vibrant environment that is now clouded with smoke and darkness. A tired sigh escapes my lips when I realise that this may actually just be the beginning. I know it's weird but I just have this feeling that the worst is yet to come and the truth is, the thought of it alone scared me like nothing else.

Like she was actually there. An hour passed in silent bliss, Nine now completely relaxed now with her resting on the chair's back, eyes staring at the book. Though she could not read the words well, she liked the cover on it. There was a man, with a woman around his arms. Both staring at each with a look in their eyes, a look that Nine found herself wanting for some reason. "Do you like it?" Nine rose her head up now as Lucas peered at her from a corner of the book. "You've been staring at it for a while. Would you like to read it?"
