Final Chapter: Walking Tall Novels & Stories

You believed in my book! Thank you so much Momma! This final chapter isn’t just an ending. It’s a celebration. Nathan, Sophia, their children, their friends—the entire pack—are sitting around that fire because they made it. They survived heartbreak, betrayal, battles, and lonely nights. And they didn’t do it alone. Neither did I.

I watched as Dad kicked open the old, decrepit door of the warehouse and dragged Yannis in. From a short distance away, Queenie, who was tied to a pillar, cried out, "Uncle Ben!" Strangely, she did not look pleased to see Dad. Instead, she looked panicked. Dad ignored her. He dragged Yannis to another pillar and tied him to it. Once that was done, he went up to Queenie. "You're finally here, Uncle Ben! You saved me! I was so scared!" Queenie cried pitifully. For once, Dad seemed unfazed by her tears.

I finally got my happy ever after. THE END

"And I refuse to worry about it until he tells me otherwise. Tallah isn't thralled. And has what she wants-her voice and permission to speak. So bomb diffused." This one, anyway. ***

“If you ever want to become my equal—if you think you still deserve to be Donna of Vale—then learn to handle things properly.” He turned to his bodyguard. “Jake. Take Tessa to the basement.” The basement—Silas’s favorite place to lock away prisoners for “quiet reflection.” “Six hours,” he added. “Then let her out.” With that, he took Amy’s hand and walked out. I stayed on the floor for a long moment, feeling the sharp sting across my belly, the deeper one inside my chest. But I didn’t show any of it. I stayed still. Calm. Empty.

I slowly lifted my eyes to the screen Because now the betrayal was no longer hidden in shadows It was standing at the very top of our structure And the worst part was not that we had been infiltrated It was that someone we trusted completely Had just given Zarev the final key to take everything we had left to defend

And I was finally home. ***THE END***

We are going down. Well, I think you can see it is similar to 'Incoming' for we are coming hard and pretty fast down to the floor. I watch as the pilot with absolute breathtaking skills holds the UH-1Y together just long enough to drop us down safely on the floor. But we are leaking fuel, we need to get out and as far away as possible. With complete haste, we unclip ourselves loose, though Galland, with somewhat of trembling hands, shaking beyond what can be controlled to free himself, I help him out with what is only mere moments to spare. As we dive down into a nearby ditch, Big Bettie sings her final song as she erupts into flames in burst apart from her seems.

She was finally home. The End

stronger, wiser, and finally at peace. THE END!
