L In A Heart Novels & Stories

Mira closed her eyes and let him hold her, her face pressed against his chest, his heartbeat steady beneath her ear. She didn't say the words. But she felt them—burning in her chest, pressing against her ribs, demanding to be set free. I love you too. God help me, I love you too.

Lira was bent over a table full of medical supplies, her hands moving with precision as she stitched up one of the younger scouts. When she saw me walk in, she arched a brow. “Finally decided to stop pretending you don’t bleed?” “Funny,” I muttered. She smirked, setting the needle down. “You look like you’ve seen a ghost.” “Try something older than a ghost,” I said, half-smiling. Her expression softened. “Whatever happened down there, it didn’t just stay underground, did it?” I hesitated. “No. The Heart’s gone, but it left something behind. I can feel it, Lira. Like a hum under my skin.”

--- The room shook. A violent pulse traveled through the Observatory. Every holographic screen flickered. The Celestial Heart suddenly appeared in Liana's hand. She stared at it. "I didn't summon you." The Heart pulsed. Once. Twice. Then— A Sixteenth Seal appeared. The room went silent. Kael stared at it. "Please tell me that's decorative." Liana looked at the new symbol. It was a closed eye. Black. Surrounded by a thin ring of silver light.

Lily rolled her eyes and spun around to face him. “Useless piece of shit,” she said. Then her hand moved and a line of blood appeared on his throat. My eyes widened as he mimicked his friend and clutched his throat. “Wha..” he gurgled, and she grinned. “Because now you are part of the plan,” she said and plunged her hand into his chest. She pulled his heart straight from his chest and he dropped to the floor still clutching his neck and with a gaping hole where his heart used to be. Lily turned back to me still holding the heart in her hand. I could see that the end of her figures had claws on them, and blood dripped down her arm. Her eyes zeroed in on me and she grinned. I would normally ha

I heard his ridiculously seductive voice. ***************************************************************************************** Flashback FEW DAYS AGO~ " how is it even possible Lissy ? It states that the person survived after being stabbed in the heart." I stared at the newspaper in my hand. " oh its possible baby girl. There is a spot in the heart which just makes one's heartbeat undetectable. But it requires a perfect knowledge of human anatomy and precision." She smiled. I was surprised. " I bet you will scroll the internet" she chuckled. " you know me quite well, Lissy" I laughed at her comment.

Something about Lyra’s presence was unsettling, but there was also something familiar about her, something Elena couldn’t quite place. “I don’t understand,” Elena said softly, stepping forward. “What do you mean by the Core seeping into our hearts?” Lyra’s eyes softened for a moment, and she gave a slight nod. “You, Elena, are tied to the Heart. Its magic flows through you, and it’s affecting you more than you realize. But there is more to it than just that. The Core is not just a weapon of darkness. It is an experiment—an attempt to merge two opposing forces, light and darkness, into one.”

He stared at it, a question circling in his mind: Why did her heart beat differently from everyone else's? From that day on, he began extracting her heartbeat data separately from the drone feed and storing it in that unnamed folder. He watched her heart rate spike sharply during Council debates, steady during combat drills, quiver subtly when Cain spoke, and tremble almost imperceptibly when she was with that doctor. He logged every fluctuation, annotating the time, place, and triggering event. The folder was named "L," just that single letter. No one knew what it referred to.

I press the letter to my chest and I feel the heart thump against the paper like a reply. "I don't know your name as I write this. I don't know your face. But I know you needed a heart and I have one to give, and honestly that's a better love story than most people get. My heart is stubborn, that’s a fair warning. It beats faster when it's angry and slower when it's near lavender and it has a terrible habit of falling in love with people who don't know what to do with love. That might be my fault. Or it might just be the heart. Either way, it's yours now. So make sure you appreciate it and treat it better than I did."

’ Heart thought. “Why are you making my heart beat like this, huh?!” Cullen screamed angrily as he grabbed Heart’s hand and put it on his chest. Heart’s eyes widened more and he could even feel and hear his heart fluttering. ‘His heartbeat, it is so loud.’ Heart thought while looking at her hand on his chest. ‘But, why?! I don’t understand.’ Heart thought, she was still clueless and speechless about this.

I already think it is but I want to see it for myself. I pick a card and smirk at it. “First guess,” I say. “Um, No. 5 Red Hearts,” she hesitates slightly. I shake my head no. “Ace, Black Clover,” I shake my head no again. “One more guess.” Lyla frowns at me, eyeing me from the bottom of her lashes. A hidden temper, she's really trying to make sure it doesn't come out. “God. I don't even know much about cards much,” she is frustrated. “10 Red hearts.”
