Escapism By Raye Novels & Stories

“You’ll see.” We order two fruit juices—apple for me, mango for her. Our usual. Before they even arrive, she launches into small talk at hyperspeed. “Did you see Slam Smash’s new hair? It’s like—what is that? Seaweed dreadlocks? And don’t even get me started on Lady Gigi’s outfit last night. She wore a plasma cape. Literal. Plasma.” She flips the magazine toward me, pointing furiously at a page like this is life or death. But her fingers are shaking a little. Her laugh sounds strained.

_________ I grin as I walk, my hands in the coat, but it falls off as try not to think of Ashley and Daniel, and their beautiful happy ending, they are so strong in their love and faith, nothing is more beautiful. I plug in my earpiece, just in one ear, and playing Miley Cyrus' Flower, as I bop my head to the beat, It shuffles to Raye's Escapism, and I'm smiling. It happens faster than I can blink, I notice I'm being followed, I glance back, and I see an huge man in black, talk about cliche. I try to steady my breath, slowly removing my earpiece, trying not to alert them to my awareness.

I smiled, unable to believe myself that we could do it. Neva growled inside with pride. She was proud of herself. Aunt Blair, tears streaming silently, looked at me. Her lips trembled. "You saved us. Mauve... you saved us." I took her hand. "Everything will be alright, Blair. Please take care of yourself. Don't leave the woods now!" Liam blinked slowly, voice hoarse. "It was like a dream. A nightmare I couldn’t wake from. It felt like I was running in the desert all alone, but filled with wolfsbane. But then I felt you. Like moonlight brushing the dark away."

I said, “is a shifter compound. Changes your appearance for a full lunar cycle. Voice, scent, everything. You’ll be untraceable.” Her expression shifted. Suspicion. “And you want me to use that to go where?” I looked her dead in the eyes. “Inside.” Estrella stilled. “You’re going to Silverlight,” I said. “You’re going to tear them apart from the inside out. And you’re going to start by getting close to Ryder.” Her lip curled. “He hates me.” “Then be someone he doesn’t.” The room went quiet. I let the weight of it hang in the air. Then I walked closer, holding the vial out between two fingers.

"Don't worry, everyone! Elena is on her way! She might have a sharp tongue, but she'll save Daniel in the end." "Exactly! She might say she hates Daniel, but she'll definitely freak out when she sees him trying to take his own life!" "Ryan once saved all three female leads, so it's only right that they repay him. Cut them some slack, Daniel. Once Ryan and your fiancee marry, the debt will be fully repaid!" The very next second, the rickety basement door was violently kicked open. My older sister, Elena Coleman, rushed in and got me down in one swift motion, panic flashing briefly in her eyes.

Ultimately, I just placed the birthday crown on her head and replied softly, "It's okay. Mommy will always be with you." She nodded obediently and didn't press any further. Just at that moment, I saw that Erina had uploaded a photo on her Instagram. The caption read, "It's a beautiful night tonight. And someone's making me even happier than the moonlight."

He didn't even look down when he dropped the bottle. The doctor came and checked my pupils and blood pressure, then said, "It's a miracle! This is an unprecedented case!" Lying on the bed, I listened to them, but my mind was in a mess. The system's voice rang out again. "Host, Charles gave up his own life in exchange for you to start a new life in another world. This is my final word. Goodbye." I lay on the bed. The golden rays of light spilled in from outside, casting a soft hue on the back of my hand.

"Why even follow at this point? Might as well fold." "Quiet. Just watch." Everyone believed I had nothing. Everyone believed Ian's pair of sixes guaranteed his win. Suddenly, Helen rushed in with blood-red eyes. "Darling, don't do this. Please come home with me. Let's just go back and live a normal life, okay? Please get up!" I wanted to stand. I wanted to hold her. However, my legs would not move. I lifted my head and shot John a furious glare. He only shrugged, as if completely puzzled by my anger.
