Hold For Dear Life Novels & Stories

"Ruby had a relapse. I stayed with her at the hospital. You know she's an orphan. She doesn't really have anyone else to turn to. I'm sorry I kept you waiting." He stepped toward me and reached out, trying to pull me into his arms. But I stood up and took a step back, just in time to slip out of his reach. "I'll go heat up your dinner," I said softly. Caleb nodded, a little ashamed. "Thanks, Zoe. I promise I'll make it up to you in a week." I lowered my head and said nothing. "Make it up to me? There's no 'future' for us anymore. I've only got 48 hours left to live," I thought.

I'd stopped believing in him from the moment he chose Heather. Chandler laid me on the bed and gently pressed a kiss to my forehead. "I'm sorry, my love. I won't ever do that again." He handed me two theater tickets and added, "To make it up to you, I booked us tickets to the musical tomorrow night." I stared blankly at the tickets. It was the same theater where he'd proposed to me seven years ago. At the same time, I picked up my phone, unused for three days, and saw multiple notifications from Heather. They were intimate pictures of a man and a woman, along with raw video clips. All of them were taken during the two days I was locked in the basement.

They were sentenced to ten years in prison, and their business went bust. Our mother was a headstrong woman. When she was told of her punishment, the woman blacked out. Her mind was never the same since then. … After the Landtons took Melanie back, she was trapped in a villa on the outskirts. Three months of torture later, the demon named Jonathan ended her life. The Landtons told everyone she died of illness and buried her somewhere haphazardly. The body was found by a janitor who cleaned the place every month. The whole villa was covered in a foul stench, but Jonathan carried on with his life like the smell did not exist. It was something straight out of a horror movie.

I would rise from the ashes, stronger than ever, to claim my place at the top. Jason. Lila. Wait for my return!

When he heard my story, he didn't offer pity, only admiration. He said, "You're brave. You deserve a better life." When the brilliant aurora danced across the night sky, he took my hand and whispered in my ear, "Myra, let me be your light." I looked into his sincere eyes and smiled, nodding. I took a photo and posted one final update to social media. "New year, new life." That photo was the last straw that finally broke Elias. He lay on the cold bed in the dialysis room, staring at the blinding happiness on his phone screen. His body and spirit both crumbled.

Killian said, pressing his palm against his forehead. Silence settled over the line, then he spoke again. “When Dad died, it changed the way she saw life. I have tried so much to put her in that stable mindset. The last thing I want her to know is about my health. I will cook up some lies and tell her, and until I am better, please do not mention anything about my illness.” “And if you don’t?” Damian said, coming off way too insensitive. Killian stilled on the phone, but he wasn’t even angry. If you knew Damian, then you would know that he spoke the opposite of what he meant. “Then you would break the news to her.”

"I hereby sincerely apologize for taking up so much public resources because of things between Zoe and I. I would also like to take this chance to apologize to all staff members of Actors on Set for not being honest about my relationship with Zoe to the production team because of my selfish intentions. The production team invited both Zoe and me to the program without any prior awareness of our relationship, and they were unable to make any efforts to avoid the current situation. I officially announce that from now on, I will no longer take part in the filming of Actors on Set. Please forgive me for the inconveniences I've caused to the production team." Jay stood up from his seat and bowed

Leo. He called out, "Darla, from here on out, you're dead. You died trying to escape on my ship. When I go back, that's the story I'll tell everyone. I'll mourn your loss, but I'll also make sure no one suspects the truth. You were a stranger who paid me to take you somewhere, but you didn't make it. You're a ghost now, a secret I'll keep to protect us both. Are we clear?" As I turned to leave, a mix of emotions swirled inside me - grief for the life I was leaving behind, fear of the unknown, and a glimmer of hope for a new beginning.
