Half A Chance Book Novels & Stories

I had kept it. But the second chance had compounded far beyond what the promise covered. That was the part no one told you about second chances. They did not just fix what was broken. They built what was never possible in the first place. Silas's POV Adrian's book was published in spring. The title was simple. The Ground Beneath. It was what he had always talked about. The ground beneath the structures. The ground beneath the people who built them. The ground beneath who he was. The book was reviewed in four national publications within the first week.

She reaches out, taking my hand. “I’m asking you to give this a chance. Dr. Akeso will be monitoring me every other day. If it looks like our pup is struggling or that I can’t carry him or her to term, we can talk about next steps. I’m just asking you to give this a try, Dimitri. You’ve given me a gift that I’d given up on ever having in my life. You’ve given me the ability to give life to a little person, someone who is part of us. I just want a chance, Dimitri. I promise, I will do whatever Dr. Akeso says I have to do. Anything. I just want a chance. Please, Dimitri.”

“Unexpectedly, it turns out that the bookstore in the mall is quite large, too. If it is like this, we can look for the desired book with ease. Where are you going, honey?" The slender girl did not answer yet, because it had not separated her attention from the scenery there. After a few seconds of silence, Abby seemed to have an idea, so she turned to Massimo. “I want to look for a novel or something. How about you? Do you want to find the same thing or maybe you want to go somewhere else? If yes, then you could go there, because I will be here for one or two hours."

I had to win this battle, not just for myself but for everyone who had put their faith in me. Suddenly, I saw an opportunity. Jason had left himself open for a split second, and I seized the moment, striking with all my might. My sword made contact with his, and I pushed forward, using every ounce of strength I had left. With a loud clang, our swords met, and for a moment, we were both locked in a stalemate. But then, with a sudden burst of energy, I pushed forward once more, and Jason’s sword flew out of his hand, clattering to the ground.

My tone was dry and all I wanted right now was water or at least something to quench the thirst. A face appeared above mine. "Emery," he said my name like he was trying to get my full attention. "This is your choice." His eyes which were gold, glittered at me like stars from a night sky. "To have a second shot at life only in a different point of view." I didn't need to be asked twice. In a stable but weak voice I replied, "Yes."

"I'm full of surprises, you might not remember that" But I did remember, I remembered that there was a time when Melanie's surprises had been the only thing standing between me and my sanity. I chuckled, low and rough. "I remember." At that the air felt electrified, and I cleared my throat and reached out, my fingers brushing against the book she was holding. "What's so interesting about this one?" Melanie's eyes flickered, but she didn't back down. "It's...it's about second chances." I raised an eyebrow and took a seat beside her. "Second chances, you say, do you think people get those?"
