Dying Changes Everything Novels & Stories

Gray argued. "I don't care," Mikhail retorted. "Why should I care about someone who isn't even related to me?" "How selfish," Gray retorted. "I never thought you could be so heartless, Mikhail. She must have shared with you how she was wrongly accused of attempted murder. How she passed away in prison due to an illness. And now that she has finally found a loving family, you want her to die all over again?" After Gray's words, Victoria found herself in tears. She had made a promise to not feel sorry for herself anymore, but the pain of hearing Mikhail say she didn't deserve to live was just too much.

72 ADRIA’S POV I didn’t know if that was what dying felt like but I did know that it was peaceful and at that moment, dying didn’t seem so bad. I had seen everyone. My mum, Lucien, my best friends and Monica was dead and I hated the feeling that made me feel I was going to be weak forever. Just when I let go completely something burning hot was poured through my lips. It was so hot that it spread around my tongue with an intense, burning heat and traveled down my throat spreading the heat there.

“It isn’t that you almost got run over by a cab, is it?” “It isn’t.” “Or that you slipped and almost fell into a sewage.” I rolled my eyes. “How is that anything remotely close to a near death experience?” “Falling into a sewage? That’s the worst kind of death. Haven’t you heard of Darcy's cat who died after falling into a sewage near that auto garage downtown?” “No. And I would probably know if I knew who this Darcy was.” “Well go on then. I’m dying to know. What is this near death experience?”

I don't even care any more if I live or die. That's when the stench hits and the iron changes. And I meet Didi's wolf.

At the party, Beatrice Sherbird’s close friends surrounded me. “I heard you’ve had a crush on Beatrice since you were a kid. You even insisted on being her husband when you played house. So, do you still have feelings for her now?” Everyone turned to look at me. I looked toward the woman in the corner who was casually pouring a drink and said, “I was young and clueless back then. I probably caused Beatrice a lot of headaches. “Honestly, those feelings faded a long time ago. Besides, I’m actually getting married soon.” I heard the sound of glass breaking.

The grey grass, which had been soft and real, started to display "WATERMARK" symbols in a faint, translucent white. The sapphire wildflowers flickered like failing neon signs. Even the survivors in the distance—the shifters and the humans who had just begun to embrace—were freezing in place, their bodies becoming semi-transparent as if they were being "Un-Licensed."

The crackling of the music muted, overshadowed by the weight of the unknown. My deep voice resonated through the quietness, enveloping every inch of the camp with a mixture of shock and disbelief. Those words were like shards of ice, piercing deeply into the hearts of those gathered. "I am dying," I announced, my voice faltering slightly. A collective gasp escaped the crowd, echoing through the trees as they stood frozen, processing the magnitude of this revelation.

I fall to my knees and double over for a second as the vision of Hugo fills my mind. In a flash, Doze is next to me. “I felt it too when my old man died.
