I'll Let The World Burn Novels & Stories

Her gaze crushes the air from my lungs, presses fire against my heart until I wonder if it will burst. “But I’ll try.” The words echo like prophecy. And then she says the thing that ends me more than any blade ever could: “Stay with me.” Gods. I almost say yes. I almost break. Because once, that’s all I wanted. Once, I would have burned the world to keep her hand in mine. But now— Now the world’s already burning. And then I see them. The bodies. Not soldiers. Not kings. Not gods. Children. Burned.

He says, spitting specks of red as he stutters. "That's right... and I bet you have a real good guess as to why." He stays silent. "Every single fucking one of those girls you sold are going to walk free. The girls you abducted and abused. All eight hundred. Your empire falls today Malcom..." She looks at the fireplace and back at him before shoving his head close to the flame. His hair ignites and starts to burn. His ear-piercing scream shakes the room. I can't believe she is doing this. I can't say I'm not proud, but this isn't anything I could have imagined. However, her arms are shaking. I can hear her trembling breath.

You thought I was insane, an insane person with a heart that can be healed and you healed my heart with your love. I know your heart, Reina. I know the way you fight, the way you carry your pain as if it’s armor. I know you still believe you have to stand alone, that the world has never given you a reason to trust. But trust me. Let me be the one who stands beside you, the one who fights your battles with you. Because I will. I will burn the world for you if that’s what it takes, I will destroy everyone and bring you back to me.

If the world must burn to be remade, then let it burn. All of us along with it!

Lee hugged Evelyn and the latter said "I know you are hurting and all but please stop clinging to the past, your dad wouldn't want you to be consumed with hate." "I will try... to let it go" Lee said "Thank you Lee, at least now, I won't have to worry." Evelyn said "Worry? Why would you worry?" Lee asked "I thought I might end up giving birth to my baby out of wedlock, because I wasn't planning on getting married if you don't let go of your hate for my fiance." Evelyn said "I'll do it for you and the baby... I'll give Eric one chance to prove himself" Lee said

And if I have to burn down the entire world in order to make them my prey? Then I'd burn down the whole world.

Lord, I know I’m going to regret this, but please, help me anyway. “Alright, fine! I’ll go with you!” The moment I said that, I felt like I wanted to take my words back. “HAHA I’m the winner! No takebacks, Alina Ysabelle Allard!” And with that, I thought I saw Lucifer in Veronica’s smile.

I wrap my arms around his neck, holding him close. For a long moment, neither of us move. Our breathing is ragged, sweat slicking our skin, both our hearts pounding like war drums. Then he speaks. Quiet. Raw. “I’ll burn the whole world before I give you up.”

"Give me one more chance… I've already sent Demi abroad. If you come back with me, we can start over…" "You can't go back," I cut him off. "Everyone only gets three chances to cross between worlds. You've used all of yours." The color drained from his face. He went still, like something had locked around his throat. "That's impossible… You're lying…" "If you don't believe me, go try." Before I finished, he was already on his feet. He stumbled out into the night, chasing something that no longer existed. After that, Liam never showed up in my life again.

"You're asking this again? Didn't we tell you we don't have any money?" Ian lowered his head, too afraid to meet her gaze. He stammered, "Louisa's brother owes some money, and the creditors are pushing hard. Louisa can't handle it, and I just want to help her." Caroline's expression changed instantly. "It's not that I don't want to help you, but you haven't even sorted things out for yourself. How can you take on someone else's problems?" Ian panicked. "Mom, I can't leave Louisa to fend for herself. I've already promised to help her. I-I borrowed from an online moneylender for this, and the interest keeps growing. I can't pay it back anymore. Please, just help me."
