Half A Chance Book Novels & Stories

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."

Adrianna says as she hands Chance the small purple pony. "I think this one is my favorite so far little one." Chance says as he smiles down at her. "Mine too." Adrianna exclaims with glee. Chance is a hard fucker to read. One moment he is acting like he is a lone ranger and hates the entire world, the next he is acting like a fuckin' family man. I'll give him this much, he's good with kids, and for that fact I am grateful. Seeing Adrianna again but knowing she was in danger because of us has me feeling too uncontrolled. My need to constantly be in control is pushed to its boundary and I don't know if it would be wise to be near her right now.
