If a man wanted to, he could stand up and fight back, he would have a chance, but most women wouldn't. So instead I find their weaknesses and exploit them. Smiling at the next name I go to the club. Walking in I watch as everyone stays quiet. I see Evan look towards the fire exit, moving I rush to block it, grabbing him I throw him back. "What do you know?" "Well, the princess won't be ruling the city for long, that is for sure." He laughs, moving I punch him. "Who took her?" "You kill me you will never know." He smiles smugly. "I was expecting your visit, after standing right there watching them talk and listening, I couldn't wait to watch her empire fall down."

Hopefully the Heat would fare better. As his steak cooked, he gazed out across the beach to the waves that crashed onto the sand. There was a storm out at sea. Lightening flashed in the distance, though it was too far out to hear the thunder. The wind was whipping up the surf into a white froth. He wondered vaguely whether his colleagues would be called out tomorrow to transport swimmers caught up in rip currents, and he sighed, glad to be off for the next twenty-four.

The yellow-robed female impatiently questioned. A gust of wind rippled through the open window, fanning about the foul blood that leaked profusely from the unresponsive girl. As if deaf to the woman standing over her, she continued her quiet chant. "Once upon a time, in an empire long fraught with war, there lived a saint who loved her people." Away she would drift, deep into the endless abyss, into the belly of darkness. Away so far that when the light chased, when the torch flared, she would not see it.

“Then all of this would end, and there would be no one left to care.” Beatrice slapped Emily hard, the action fast, giving the deaf girl no chance to prevent it. Her head snapped right, the force of the blow sending tears arching through the air, and Emily stumbled onto the aft-deck where she crashed into a seating area. In effect, it was a lounge exposed to the elements, complete with a fixed dining table under an awning. “Hey! Beatrice, stop!” Claire said, voice firm but panic shaving the edges. She tried to reach out for Beatrice but her arms were batted away. She gasped in pain and fell against the railings.

Some storms are born on calm seas. Others begin long before the first wave. Present Day The skies above the estate darkened, clouds building like charcoal-stained cotton. Thunder murmured in the distance, echoing the turbulent rhythm of Max’s pulse. He stood alone on his balcony, the wind playing restlessly with the edges of his open shirt. In his fingers trembled the small, neatly-folded note, the ink stark against the ivory paper, elegant and cruel. I’m coming for mine.

The sky cracked open before midnight. Emma stood at the balcony of her hotel room, watching palm trees thrash in the wind. Lightning ripped the horizon, followed by a low, rolling boom that rattled the glass. The storm had been building all afternoon, heavy clouds dragging the heat lower and lower until the air itself felt combustible.

Chapter 85: Blood and Betrayal The waves slammed harder against the ship as the storm grew louder, wind roaring like a beast. Thunder cracked across the dark sky, flashing light over the deck. The salty spray stung the air, the sea churning beneath them. Derek sat chained to a metal chair, soaked, shivering, pale. His wounded arm trembled, blood trickling down the bandage. Every movement sent a sharp jolt of pain through his small body, but he clenched his teeth and stared ahead. His lips were dry. His skin was cold. But his spirit—though bruised—had not broken.

she finally whispers put and turns away from me and she looks into the ocean like it will give her the answers. I look toward the ocean too, the storm is here it’s strong like they said it will be, the waves are angry, hitting the shoreline giving us a warning not to come in or will take us. The rain is pelting against my skin, the wind is howling reminding me what our nature is, a flash of lighting lights up the sky and at that moment I look at Athena again, and she’s there looking like a goddess, soaking wet like she just came out of the water, as a goddess, and is waiting for me to take me away with her.

She turned around and lipped away. So furious and angry, Emily roared out command. Everyone of you is inside now! .... Now! As the chief leader of the girls, they were all banned from obeying her order. Gradually, they all packed up and left her alone on the beach. Memories she wishes she never remembered all clashed together in her mind. All the pain she never wanted to feel that they were there all came waving in. It was like she had been electrified, as she now felt those scares on her. She could see herself being tortured, beaten, and half dead. Her eyes were now becoming blurry; all she could see and hear were her screams of pain from the torture Nathan gave her in the name of training.

"I love you, Emma." Heartbeats furiously. Palms sweaty. Blood rushes to my cheeks to give them a pinkish. My palms unsure of where they should be, stays still. In about a second, the storm finally blows out something, disappearing somewhere out at sea. The air slowly grows still around us, the curtains settling, the last of the water draining away with a gurgle. A moment so intimate, so vivid, so infinite, I don't know what to do, only put one palm on my thigh.
