Hello Neighbor: Welcome To Raven Brooks Trinity Novels & Stories

Raven's heart jumped in ecstasy as he pressed the 'answer' button. "Hey!" Ehem. "Hi, gorgeous." He made sure to make his voice sound extra low. Beside him, Jayce made a face of disgust. He couldn’t care less. "Sorry I couldn't pick up earlier." "It's fine. Don't worry about that." Raven eyed her surroundings through the screen. It seems like she's in some kind of a restaurant with busy people passing by behind her. The place's ceiling is wood and the apricot white walls with minimalist picture frames radiate a cozy vibe.

He ended it quickly, slipping his phone back into his jacket. When it vibrated again. Unknown number. His chest tightened. He opened the message. If you want to know who I am, meet me tomorrow. 10:00 p.m. sharp. Red Hook. Brooklyn. Come alone. The city noise seemed to dim around him. Red Hook— abandoned after midnight, nothing but dark water, rusted railings, and the kind of silence that swallowed screams. Ashley’s laughter floated toward him from across the lot. Simon was saying something dramatic, Tristian rolling his eyes.

I hid my identity as a Mafia heiress to live a quiet life. I never thought my new neighbors would be the ones to pick a fight they can’t win. I'd just gotten back from the gallery when my phone started blowing up. On the Nextdoor community forum, a woman named Brenda had @'d me. "Hey, penthouse girl. You're single. What do you need a whole rooftop garden for? My husband's throwing a party. We'll be needing it starting tomorrow."

Her once-rounded belly had shrunk, and her eyes hollowed with sickly pallor. Suddenly, I remembered that long-lost Ragdoll cat. “What are you here for? “Julian must have told you. The apartment next door that he gave you was purchased with marital assets. It’s now been awarded to me. “You have no right to stay there anymore.” Ivy’s eyes no longer held their former superiority or defiance. She knelt before me and pleaded. “Clara, please don’t misunderstand! I’m not here to cause trouble. I’m here begging for help!

“Since Barry’s tires weren’t slashed, we moved them over to your SUV. The missing spark plugs are another matter. We tried moving Barry’s cut cables over to your car. We wrapped some electrical tape around them.” “It didn’t work,” Brock said. “The spark plugs on my car are fine, but they won’t fit yours. I popped Connor’s hood on his rental. His spark plugs were missing,” Troy said. Lexi exhaled. “Brock, how close are your nearest neighbors?” “Ten miles,” Brock said. A gentle breeze blew the ends of Lexi’s dark hair that was sticking out of her hat. “We have been talking about packing up some supplies and hiking to the neighbors,” Troy said. “But, we’re afraid that everyone will be dead lon

I inhale and exhale, measuring my breaths as I kick my high-school track star talent into high gear. Trixie turns the corner, but I'm on her tail and close enough to dive for the leash just as she enters the alley. "Gotcha," I say as I grab the leash. Trixie and I pant loudly, struggling to catch our breath. I really want to bind her and leave her to be Mrs. Morales' problem once more. Just as I'm about to drag Trixie back to our building, I hear voices further down the alleyway. I immediately recognize Grant, the slacker maintenance man from the building next door, in his filthy jumpsuit. I don't think of him as the maintenance man of anything.

I apologize while looking down feeling so much pain radiating through my chest feeling so rejected by Liliana. “That’s ok you have no reason to be sorry. I can hang out; my house is just over there. I’m Ryder by the way, what’s your name?” He questions while pointing to Nikki’s house and I nod a little. “I’m Raven Holmes,” I answer while watching him move next to me and look over at me with a gentle nod. “One of Alpha Gideon’s daughters, what are you doing out here I thought you guys just arrived?” Ryder questions while sitting with his legs crossed and his arms resting on his legs.

“He just said. By the time, we had arrived at home. The lights were off, and it was so dark. Mae’s drunken form was unable to carry herself upstairs. Lucky us! That Aunt is already a sleep , we are both really dead. So Nathan carried her to her room. And when Mae was in the room, I thanked Nathan and Greg for coming to us at the club. And then Greg looked at me. As if saying something that I couldn’t understand and he showed me his cellphone. I saw a text on my cellphone saying something, “Can we meet later outside?” my heart suddenly pounded what he just texted me. “Will I go?” I miss him, I just sneaked out later. After I dressed Mae, I went to my room to take a hot shower, I soaped up pro

Raven’s POV Eve's voice, with its familiar warmth, was a balm to my unsettled nerves. The connection I felt with her, even just through the phone, had a way of soothing the storms within me. "Hello, Raven," she greeted me, her tone a mix of comfort and curiosity. “Hello, Eve. Is everything okay with you?" I inquired, my concern palpable. "Well... everything is fine now, yes," she responded after a pause that seemed to stretch into eternity.
