Innocence: A Novels & Stories

Nor did I turn away. “I done what needed doin',” I says. Her face contorted, both horror and anger crashing together. “She was innocent,” Mia exclaimed, her voice cracking. “Anna was innocent. She had nothing to do with our world. Nothing.” I let out a breath that was almost a laugh, though there was no humor in it. “Innocence doesn’t save anyone,” I replied. “You should know that by now.” Mia stepped closer, her voice rising. “You killed her,” she said. “You killed someone who never hurt you. Someone who loved him.”

—I'm carrying a child. Zena's gaze of loathe did not falter, not even one bit, neither did the resolve in her heart to kill. "Innocence is a luxury I can no longer afford," she replied. "Your father-in-law did to my mother what I'm about to do to you. It's only fair, don't you think?" she added, a sinister chuckle punctuating her words. Lydia could hear her own frantic heartbeats in her ears and tears started to stream down her eyes, "Please, have mercy. Spare me and my unborn child. We're innocent."

Looking at the sweet little girl in front of me, I couldn't fathom how Yvonne had the heart to hurt such innocent children. Annie's father, worried about his daughter's reclusive nature and that she might be bullied at school, had pinned a small camera to her chest. That camera was my one lifeline—the proof of my innocence. I sent the footage from the day before into the parents' group chat and tagged everyone. It was the first time I had seen the video myself. The timestamp showed 2:05 p.m.—the exact moment I had sent Yvonne to fetch Ethan's parents.

“I waited for you to wake up and redeem yourself, give yourself the chance to prove your innocence before I put the cuffs on you.” “And who made you judge, jury and executioner?” My voice hissed, throat gulping to fight the nausea. Lucas's smile stays put, “Right now, I'm your only hope of a fair hearing. The court won't be too merciful.” “I'll take my chances,” my throat felt dry, “I am an innocent man.” “An innocent man with his prints all over his mother's murder weapon?” He scoffs, “I may be young, but—”

He was surprised and immediately looked at Sera. "I didn't cause your mother's death at all. Reread it, and you'll soon know I'm innocent." "Don't believe her. I have read this book, and the accusations point to her!" Luna stares angrily and is about to attack Sera, but John immediately forbids her. "I'll read again," he said and then read the book. "I told you that he was the cause of My Mom's death." Luna tries to convince John's doubts. Sera walked back. She intended to leave there but was hit on the back by Irina with a stick. "Aah!" She fell to the ground, unconscious.

“The truth is, you were a complete and total shit, Iniko. You lied to someone else’s mate, you submitted to them without telling them what it meant to become a rider, and then you had the fucking audacity to whine when that person didn’t want to accept you as their mate. You played the fucking victim, and you were pissed off with everyone here at the Academy because you didn’t get what you wanted, even though it was never yours to begin with. Imagine if Cal submitted to Brooke, then whined about her not accepting him as her mate. You LIED, Iniko! I’m not even sure how that was possible.” “Apparently, I was DEFECTIVE!” I scream. “The only defective thing about you was your manipulative behavi

“I was going to show you but now she wears long skirts and dresses.” “Do you think she is being abused?” asked the boy with reading glasses. “After all her father did die and her brother is nothing but a sex offender with money and fancy lawyers to cover all his shit.” “I really don’t know Ken” replied the boy next to him opening his textbook. Tears started dropping down from Miho’s cheeks onto the piece of paper she was drawing on. “Is she crying?” asked Janette moving her head forward to catch a clear look at Miho’s face.

Hope not! She found that dad had been avoiding her .He couldn’t look up at her.What action was he going to take?She had no means to contact her partner in crime.Was that a crime?NO,she had heard dad hint many times that it was natural for humans to seek their mates once they acquired biological eligibility for the same.Well so it was neither required nor sane for any adult human to control their passions.Men were born savage like any other animals they had similar instincts with the only difference that they could put on pretence.What was the need of all this struggle?Her interior was all storming up with the after effect of her first intercourse with ……well she felt shy to pronounce his na

“It is okay” “Uh… be careful” “Yeah. Don’t worry, you know me. I have dodged suspicions thousand times” “Yeah…” I smiled. “Good luck” He nodded and then went out. ------ Vincent I went out and to the Police station. To be honest, I was a little worried. I knew this time, it was like… every time, I didn’t fear the Police. Because I knew that even if I get caught, I will be out and live my life again. But now? I know that if I get caught, my wife would be so sad. I have to do this now, for her. I have to be well.

A kind of innocence which would make anyone fall for it and if not fall then to torment as per desire. His eyes wandered all over her face and finally stopped at her lips which were slightly parted. He noticed that small cut on her pink full lips and he already knew how she got it. His hand automatically made its way towards her mouth. He gently brushed his thumb against the corner of her lips. He was completely drunk that night but he could clearly remember how soft and luscious she had felt and tasted to him that night and that thing made him irrational because after feeling her sweetness, he had started despising just the thought of someone else feeling, touching or tasting her warmth, in
