Eleanor Calder Novels & Stories

JULIAN WARD SOAKED IN RED AT TECH EXPO. The influencer made a small, dramatic pout and gave the cameras a shrug, as if to say, Oops. But isn’t he a good sport? And then a new voice entered the scene. Sharp. Icy. Regal. “Get. Away. From him.” Every head turned. Eleanor Lancaster stood on the steps leading down into the gallery space, dressed in a black satin trench coat, her gray-streaked hair swept into a regal twist. Her heels clicked once on the stone as she descended like royalty entering a battlefield.

Sister Katarina could have the same broken plank on the floor, and it could be an unknown compartment for things she held dearly, for things she wanted to hide from the sights of other sisters. “Let me.” I said, and she scooted away. On my first try, I tried clawing the spaces on the sides of the planks, but it only moved a little. I need something. And without asking for it, Edith stole the clip on her wimple, and she raised it to me.

Eleanor sat in the field looking from her sketchbook to Storm and back again. Her ability had improved a lot in the past month, but she still could not get the horses neck to look right and with Mairead gone she could get no pointers or lessons to fix it. She’d never be as skilled as Mairead, but her drawings were fairly nice now. Especially when she drew plants or flowers, things that didn’t move much. She was not nearly as good if she had to hold an image of a living creature in her mind and draw it with accuracy after it had moved. She was a bit disappointed that Eliana wouldn’t try learning to draw with her. She had hoped to be close with her sister once again, but she and Eliana had lit

"Lily might have played innocent, but she was bold. She never hid her desire to become Mrs. Northwood—" "I did it," Cailyn admitted. Calista looked down and kneaded her joints. She was a restorer of cultural relics. To put it bluntly, she was a craftsman. Despite her slender fingers, there were thin calluses on her fingertips. Her skin was nowhere near delicate at all. "I have one last question for you. Were you trying to push me into the pool just now?" Cailyn said nothing. But after a brief moment of hesitation, she suddenly reached out to push Calista into the pool.

As I start walking closer, my voice carries quiet determination. "I will not let you do this." Rowena's smile returns, cold and confident. "You cannot stop me, Eleanor. You're not the woman you once were." Diana POV The fight erupts without warning. Eleanor moves like liquid lightning, her form blurring as she launches herself at Rowena. For the first time, I'm seeing Eleanor as she truly is—not the weary, ancient woman who's been guiding us, but a warrior forged by centuries. She's agile and graceful, every movement precise and fluid, but there's something ruthless in her attacks that makes my breath catch.

There were five—well, to me, there were five breeders so far who have counted as breeders. Eleanor, Faith, Mala, Kira, Celine, Samantha and now, Audrey. Eleanor was never really a breeder at first, she was more of an omega assistant who I started to have sexual relations with until one day she was up and disappeared into the thinnest air. Since then, there has not been a single trace of her after that.

“Sorry, Mommy dearest, but I really can't make that promise!” “Ella…” I began in a warning tone but she quickly cut me off. “Come on, Mom! Stop being such a worrywart or else your hair will turn gray and your face wrinkly even before you turn thirty!” At that, both Zane and Jayden couldn't help but chuckle a bit. As I shook my index finger at her in a light-hearted admonishing manner, she giggled loudly and added. "Besides, you have nothing to worry about, Mommy dearest! I, Eleanor Ryder… oops! I mean Eleanor McAllister, I'm the best actress ever! I'll make Grandpa and Grandma not just believe we are a real family but also love me!"

Before I could say anything, a tall, graceful woman in black leotard over a pair of black leggings, walked in from the back of the ballroom. “This is Eleanor,” Calix said. “She’s a professional choreographer. She’ll be teaching us the contemporary waltz we’ll be performing at the reception.” Eleanor gave a poised nod. “Pleasure.” Oh no. I wasn’t built for this. I mean, I could sway to Beyoncé at a club and hold my own, but this? Formal dancing? I wasn’t so sure. My palms were already sweating. “I should warn you,” I said. “I have the coordination of a newborn giraffe.”

His face fills the screen, tie loosened, whiskey in hand. “. You owe me a yacht for killing Celeste’s video.” Ethan smirks. “You sank one in Paris. We’re even.” Dante laughs. “Fair. Lila, you look smug.” I hold up the tablet, its Eleanor’s portrait, her eyes are narrowed. “Working on her villain arc.” Dante whistles. “Frame it. Hang it in the nursery.” I throw a pillow at the screen. “Out.” **** Eleanor’s Townhouse.

She turned from the hills. "Eleanor wants to design a new entry," she said. "For next year's competition. Something that goes further than the submission he stole." “Of course she does," I said. “Yes," Clara said. "Of course she does."
