Every Breath You Take Novels & Stories

I hold her just as tight. “That’s it. Let it all out,” she sings to me, rocking with me. “It’s only when it’s out that you will be able to truly breathe.”

A cold draft snaked through the room. “Hello?” she called out, her voice barely a whisper. The silence that followed was deafening, punctuated only by her own frantic heartbeat. Suddenly, a low, guttural *hummm* vibrated through the floorboards beneath her feet. It was deep, unsettling, like a beast stirring. Aster stumbled back, her eyes wide. *You just painted a target on your back.* Adagio’s words sliced through her confusion, sharp and cold. *It’s about survival.*

🎶🎶'Don't know if you get it 'cause I can't express how thankful I am That you were always with me when it hurts, I know that you'd understand I don't wanna lose control Nothing I can do anymore Tryin' every day when I hold my breath Spinnin' out in space pressing on my chest I don't wanna lose control Sometimes I still think it's coming but I know it's not Tryin' to breathe in and then out but the air gets caught'🎶🎶 Nate notices my discomfort right away, and he begins to soothe me, stocking my arm softly up and down as I listen to the same song on repeat.

Ariana's POV Midnight 1:00am .... "Arghh" I yelled and quickly stood up from my bed. My cloth and pillow were soaked in sweat , I wasn't having a nightmare or anything but I just felt like something important had been taken away from me and I needed to be awake at the moment. I exhaled deeply as I pulled the duvet off my body and stood up , I didn't know what this feeling was , but I just felt this heavy burden in my heart that I just lost something.

I stayed there frozen on my seat, unable to move an inch. “Breather in and breathe out. Breathe in and then breathe out….” I kept chanting those continuously until I could finally calm my nerves. “You can do this, Aiv! You’re a strong girl.” I mentally prepared myself and slowly turned my head to see the “person” staring right through the window at me with its dark ashy green eyes. I felt a chill run down my spine. It was like someone had poured icy cold water on my naked body in winter. Our eyes locked for a second,but before I could come back to my consciousness, he disappeared.

My heart beats so fast and im running out of breath. "Ah-ah! Na-na. Ahhhhh!" I screamed. //Bless you! 🥰

I fight myself and try to convince myself there is air, that this is not really and to keep breathing. 'Breath, keeping breathing.... breath!' I tell myself, but its no use, with each breath I take is shallower and shallower, containing less and less air. 'For fuck sakes, Breathe!' I shout at myself, 'breathe, come on, fucking hell, BREA...'

She will spend eternity and one thousand years bound to me, even when we return to this world. She never did ask me how the incantation of the Breath of Life works, but out of respect for our long friendship I feel that I should explain it to you. Grace thought that I had given her children life, but that was not the case. The Breath of Life is given for only a time, in your children's case they would hold life so long as the two breaths they received continued to exist. Once my last breath escapes me, so will theirs.
