Fortune Favors The Bold Book Novels & Stories

Isabella peeked at me from the safety of Liam’s arms, a smug little smirk flickering across her face as if to say, “Look at you. What a joke of a Luna.” Ugh! That cow! My fists clenched, and I glared at her. He wanted me to take the fall for her? Not a chance! “Scarlett,” Liam’s voice dropped low. “You made a promise.” I looked at him in disbelief. Was he really going to use one of his favors for this? The privilege came from the day he marked me. That night, under the gaze of the Moon Goddess, I swore I’d grant him sixty-six favors, no matter right or wrong.

“I can feel the power from this thing. It’s ancient.” I nodded. “Yes.” I held out my hands and she stepped closer. “It calls to us. Did you know that?” Toya whispered as she slid the book into my waiting arms. “What do you mean?” “The book.” Wendy nodded. “When we held it, it whispered to us. The power it could give us. Almost as if it was testing our loyalties.” Toya nodded. “It’s powerful. I don’t think you should show anyone other than us.” Toya bit her lip. “Not even the others.”

My bank account looked healthier than it had in years enough for the move, for a year of careful living, for whatever came next. I quit the bookstore with two weeks' notice. My boss cried actually cried when I told her. "You're family here," she said, hugging me tight. "Promise you'll write. Send pictures of that beautiful baby." "I promise," I whispered, hugging back. Mara threw me a small goodbye party just us and a few regulars. Cake from the bakery down the street. Laughter that felt almost real. "You're brave," Mara said quietly as we cleaned up. "Starting over like this. Alone."

It was as if the world muted itself. The guards shouting, more gunfire...everything faded into cotton. All I could feel was Adrian’s weight on me, his breath stuttering, his body trembling. He lifted his head, struggling, and looked at me. He… smiled. “Don’t be scared…” More blood poured from the corner of his mouth. “This way… it’s better. You’ll be safer with Julian... a man with power, not danger.” “No more living with fear…” He raised a shaking hand and touched my face—

My heart beat fast inside my chest. Gerald tried to help. He spoke, voice even and calm. “Your Highness, I still think Aiden is our best choice. He made mistakes, yes, but he has the strength and the wisdom to lead.” Gerald’s face was sad. He did not want to see the pack burn in chaos.

Jamie shrugged indifferently. "You know the Fortress is protected with magic right?" Alfred asked and the boys nodded in reply. "It was Alex's idea after our futile search for a dependable security." "He created it?" Jamie asked with disappointment. "Yes, he did. In fact, he relieved us all of stress as all he just did was to find a magic book on protection and cast a few spells and that was all." "Still can't believe all these," Jamie sighed defeatedly. "Let's take a look at these," Alfred said, moving from the centre of the room with the boys to the shelves that housed the magic books.

He beamed, shaking hands with the client as his face glowed with flattery. The client smiled faintly with an expression that was hard to read. "Mr. Knight, you’re quite the polished young man. I’m sure this collaboration will win you a promotion from the chairman." Sure enough, the very next day, Chairman Henry Carter held a company-wide awards ceremony to celebrate the project. Adrian stood proudly on the stage, grinning from ear to ear. From her front-row seat, Rachel Carter locked eyes with Adrian, and in that moment, her gaze sparkled. It wasn’t affection in her eyes. It was the cold gleam of a hunter who had just marked her prey.

"Fiona, stop being so stubborn. Your dad is right. You'll suffer if you stay with me." But Fiona had already made up her mind. She shook her head and said firmly, "No. I want to go with you." Michael sighed and finally gave in when he saw what was happening. "Fine. Do what you want. But if life gets too hard, remember to come and find me." Fiona shot me a smug, provocative look as she said, "Go with Dad, Ursula. Relax, your good fortune is still ahead of you." Then, she took Jessica's hand and left without looking back.

Matagal na rin kasi ang librong ‘to. ‘Book of Wisdom & Prophecy’ ‘Yan ang title ng libro. Hindi ko pa ata nababasa ‘tong libro dahil ngayon ko lang nabasa ang title. In-open ko ang libro sa first page. ‘Here lies the secrets of The Empire, including the words of the Prophecy.’ It piqued my interest, Fantasy book ba ito? I don’t really like fantasy stories, but this one felt different. It's like building a connection through me.

He opened his eyes abruptly and saw Tyr’s twisted face. “You… What are you up to? ” “The book of Song of The Empire blessed me with luck and fortune!” Tyr roared in return. At the next moment, the book which hung initially above Sporus’ head, surprisingly floated towards Tyr. Simultaneously, the golden aura which surrounded Sporus also entered Tyr’s consciousness incessantly. “Kiddo, you better stop it now!” Sporus started to panic..
