He Celebrates When Daughter Burns Novels & Stories

"I understand that father, I don't see any reason to decline if that is your command. If I am to choose one of my elite warriors to get the job done, it would be fine isn't it?" "I don't care how you do it son, but have it done soon." I emptied my glass of whiskey while watching him do the same, the atmosphere relax for a little bit. "By the way father, we are invited to join Alpha Xander for his daughter's birthday next week. Are you going to the celebration?" "No, you are going with your warriors. Such parties bore me and your mother is thinking to go sailing once again." His eyes sparkled differently at the mention of my mother. They have never got tired of going out and having fun with j

I brushed it off as I listened to my father continue to speak. “Tonight, we celebrate two things. One, my own son’s inauguration as your new Alpha.” Everyone claps and cheers, including me. I look around for Colt to see his reaction, but he’s not around here. He must be waiting in the room, right behind the top of the stairs for when he gets called. “Two, for the reappearance of my beloved daughter, Hailey.” I swallowed nervously, and my heart started thumping loudly in my chest when his eyes landed on mine, prompting the crowd to turn to me too.

“I heard the Alpha house is throwing a private celebration tonight.” “Well, Lady Gena’s daughter survived the surgery, of course they’ll celebrate.” “I even heard young master Arlan helped decorate the cake himself. He’s probably there already.” My body froze instantly. Celebration? My daughter was lying here dying while they were celebrating another child surviving with the heart stolen from her.

“You’re Nova. My Nova. Mother of the strongest flame this world has seen. You’re more than blood.” She smiled weakly. “You always say the right thing.” He grinned. “It’s my only talent.” They laughed, quietly. But the war was coming. And their daughter was its spark.

"You said she nearly burned the house down. You neglected her for years. Fine. "But you stood in front of everyone and celebrated another man's son's one-month milestone while your own daughter had nothing. Do you know what it felt like for the rest of us to show up at what we thought was a celebration for your daughter, only to find it was for someone else's child?" He was not finished. "And you say she brought up money with your mother. I don't think that's outrageous at all. I think she's finally thinking clearly.

As soon as the words left Ross's mouth, Hilary froze like an ice sculpture. Seeing her like that, I couldn't help but smile. I lifted my hand, gently twisting the diamond ring on my finger. "Yes, but my wife and daughter are both dead." Ross looked up sharply, visibly stunned. My parents turned to me with sympathetic eyes. I went on, "Three years ago, my wife and daughter were burned to ash in a fire." I let my gaze linger on Hilary. Her face turned ghostly pale in an instant.

Kaecy looks excited, which is unusual for him, especially during a festival he’s required to attend as the next Alpha. The Alpha pats Alexis’s shoulder as he begins speaking. “A joyous day! The moon goddess has shined upon us! Today, we celebrate, and this is a sign that we are in her good graces!” The Alpha chokes up, his eyes watering. “Our son, Colt, unbeknownst to us, did not die nine years ago. And now here he stands.” He pulls Alexis forward to stand beside him. For a few seconds, I can’t react.

"It's just cigarettes, man. That shit kills, so you don't need to get all emotional." He holds out the cigarette again and I take it, letting him light it for me. "This here sucks, maybe death is a better way out." he says, blowing smoke upwards, his gaze lost on a group of faces a few steps away from us. I shrug, holding the smoke longer than I should. "What stops you then?" "My daughter" reveals and surprise overwhelms me, but considering he doesn't seem willing to say any more about it, I swallow my curiosity. "And you?" he asks after a while. " Revenge."

says General Oris " I heard that you recently took in the daughter of Nyx. Maybe she could even the playing field because even you can't take on the son of Zeus, two children of Poseidon, and another daughter of Hades all by yourself," says Eses "No, she's only 10 years old; she should be protected, not thrust onto a battlefield," I say

I was so focused on how I’ll be able to get my position as the father’s daughter that I did not notice how much time have passed since I came back from the future. If it is next week, then there’s only few months left before the murder of Sorren will happen. My memories of the days before the murder aren’t that clear. I had to try more to recall the details before the month of May comes. “We need to celebrate it, my daughter,” dad said. “Even though that your real birthday is on November, I am still glad to celebrate the birthday that Sorren gave you.” So my real birthday is November and not May. It is the day of the death, and not the spring.
