Holly Black Series Novels & Stories

She screamed, her voice shrill and desperate: “—HELP! Someone help! Evelyn’s trying to kill me! She already hurt Sid, and now she wants me dead too! Help!” Footsteps pounded from the hallway, and within seconds, guards appeared, followed closely by Elder Shelton and Beta Frank. “What’s going on here?” Frank barked. Then his eyes landed on Holly’s outfit, and his jaw dropped. “What the hell are you wearing?” Holly’s face turned beet red as she scrambled to cover herself. “What are you two doing here?” I hid my wolf fangs and sneered, “I called them. You put up a great act so I have to find you some audience. Don’t you agree?”

Camilla urged. “He was my moms stalker. He raped her, and she got pregnant with Murry, then came back after she gave birth to Murry, then raped her and she got pregnant with me, same goes with Matthew. She doesn’t know his face, or anything about him, just his voice,” Holly explained and waited for their reply, when she didn’t get any, she glanced up to see them staring at her, with a what the fuck look. “What? Don’t give me that look,” She said and they immediately, took their gaze from her.

My parents had a lot of explaining to do. To my surprise, I ate everything on my plate and drank two more large glasses of water before I finally felt full. All the energy I had before was now gone, and I was ready to lie down and sleep. But first, I had some questions, but they already knew that Dominic said in the woods he knew I had questions. I set the glass back down, pushing it and the plate away from me. Dominic’s eyes were on me again. They had been for the last five minutes. While I ate, I forced myself not to look at him, but now that I was done, I couldn’t stop myself from looking over. Holly took my dirty dishes, set them in the sink, and then leaned on the counter in front of me

So Holly was the one who swapped the game package. She wanted me dead. Monsters, ghosts, vengeful spirits— None of them were scarier than people. Good thing I came prepared. Holly was really committed to this. I had no clue which idol she was riding this hard for, but she was willing to risk her life just to take me out. Seeing that Adonis had zero interest in attacking me, she clenched her teeth. A dagger suddenly appeared in her hand as she charged at me. "Player drama? Now THIS is entertaining."

She went and sat on the far side of our bed, waiting. Holly looked up at me, and licked her lips. Her hand moved just a little more. "Go on. You know you want to. I want you to. And you KNOW he wants you to." Dawn told her. Holly made a decision I swear she never would have made just a few weeks earlier. She slowly dropped to her knees in front of me, and eased my boxers down, releasing my fully charged staff to the light of day.

“Tell me, Holly. What’s the worst secret you’ve ever kept?” She didn’t answer. Couldn’t. And then the door blew open. Not literally — but it might as well have. Three men. Tactical gear. No insignia. No hesitation. Agency. Dante reached for his weapon. Santino stood, eyes wide. I didn’t move. Because Holly did. She was out of her chair before the first man cleared the threshold. Black dress, heels, no armor — but she moved like a bullet. Fast. Precise. Perfect. The first agent raised his weapon.

but thankfully, the red was gone. I took a sigh of relief and straighten my back, wearing that black holy cassock over my shoulder and pure white collar around my neck; a symbol of my chastity from so many years, couldn't remember the exact date though...or year in my case. “ Father, the wolves have arrived"

They settled into the movie and except for Chelsea who had watched the movie a gazillion times, Olive and Rosie were shocked by the plot twists that kept popping up. The movie ended about an hour later and they just kept binging on more and more Marvel movies. They were watching Thor:The Dark World, well Chelsea was watching it. Rosie and Olive were conked out on the sofa with the younger's head on the elder's lap and Olive's head on the backrest. Chelsea kept watching until the post-credits came up.

Eyes the colour of embers in a dying fire — that deep red that meant something had been burning for a very long time and wasn't done. He had looked at her. Straight through the vision, straight across whatever impossible distance separated their worlds, straight into her — with the flat, assessing focus of something that had never in its existence had to ask for permission. And then he had smiled. It was not a reassuring smile. ✦ ✦ ✦ Seren came back to herself with a gasp, dropping the candle stub. It hit the stone and went out. The room was suddenly, completely dark.

Child of shadow and light. She who carries both shall rise… The Hallow surges. A pulse of dark energy slams through the cabin, rattling the windows, shaking dust from the rafters. Jason stumbles, grabbing the wall. “Brad...what the hell was that?!” I exhale slowly. “The Hallow,” I murmur. “It knows.” Jason’s voice cracks. “Knows what?” “That she’s the One.” The shadows coil tighter, swirling around my feet, eager, restless, alive. Jason swallows hard. “What does the Hallow want with her?”
