Leaving This World Isn't As Scary As It Sounds Novels & Stories

Sarah's POV My heart is pumping so fast. I am very nervous. What if the superstitions are true? And my father is in danger? What if something bad happened while he is on the plane? Or while he is in Beiyora? My mind is full of "what ifs". I can't handle this feeling anymore. I might explode anytime. "Calm, Sarah. Be calm. Just think of positive things," I said to myself, trying to forget the nervousness I am feeling right now.

He took my hand and looked into my eyes as a kind grandfather would, even though he didn't look a day over thirty. "What I'm telling you is this," Lance continued. "You have now been exposed to this world... to our world. And people like us, become targets. This world of vampires, wolf-shifters, and witches is not for the faint of heart. However, if you choose it, you will need to be tough. There's strength in you. I see it. And I'm sure your Alpha's saw it, too. But if you choose to leave this world in favor of the human world, just understand that you will be unprotected." He let go of my hand, his expression serious. "I'm telling you this for your own safety." I nodded. "Thank you, Mr. St

My office building loomed ahead, a monolith of mirrored confidence and ruthless symmetry, reflecting the clouds in its facade as if to say, We own the sky too. Normally, stepping into this world felt like sliding into armor that fit perfectly—cold, unyielding, invincible. Today, it felt… different. Not wrong, exactly. Just quieter, the edges softened by the echo of Cassidy’s voice in my head: I don’t want to stop my life every time I get scared. Dad wouldn’t want that.

The slow realization that leaving was no longer something you wanted. And then, fear. Sharp, violent, too late. running, not fast enough, hands grabbing, voices changing, kindness gone. The body breaking, not dying, not fully, just changing. Unravelling, becoming. “No!” I choked, my voice tearing free as I thrashed beneath it, the thing’s life still burning through me like fire under my skin.

“It starts to get dark. Not just cloudy, but really dark, thick. The air feels heavy, like the whole world is holding its breath. You see it spreading over the city, almost alive, swallowing up the morning. It’s not an eclipse, not a storm. It’s something else. She watched his face for a reaction. He was frowning, but kept his eyes closed. “And then,” she continued, “there’s this sound. Not thundering, something far worse. Like the sky is breaking. People start screaming. Some run, others freeze. Buildings begin to shake, then topple. Now you’re caught in the middle of chaos. You can’t find shelter. The earth shakes beneath your feet, lightning splits the sky, and the sun and the moon both g

"It's genuinely scary. The way everything's happening, one revelation after another. It feels like the world is closing in on you from all sides. And we hate that we can't do more to stop it." Tears prick at the corners of my eyes, hot and sudden, but I blink them away stubbornly and nod. "You guys being here is doing more," I tell them, my voice slightly hoarse with emotion. "More than you could possibly know. It's..." I pause, searching for the right words. "It's like having anchors when the storm is trying its hardest to sweep me away."

I’ve always had them up, and I don’t like it; I don’t want to anymore. I wanted him to see me. I was not brave, but just a scared human, so worried about life that I could not live it sometimes. “You don’t have to be scared.” “I think I do. Your world is so much different from mine, and the more I think about it, the scarier it becomes.” I said, and his eyes locked on mine. “Then don’t think about it. Think about how you feel now and how you want to feel. That’s most important.”

That memory still raised my hackles. Cara’s hands tightened on my back, but she didn’t move away. I gave her time to flip through her memories, but when her eyes cleared and she focused on me again, I traced her jaw. “I know it’s scary,” I said. “But I’m here. There’s this entire world that you don’t know, Cara. And I want to show it to you. All of it. When you see it, you’ll realize that everything that’s happening is… well, it’s not normal. But it’s real. That’s all. Just know that. It’s real.”

she said quickly. I raised an eyebrow. “Why not?” “Because it’s not finished. I don’t even know how it’ll end yet.” I smiled gently, leaning down so my voice brushed against her ear. “Sometimes, we don’t need to know the ending. We just have to live it.” She went quiet for a moment, then whispered, “That’s what’s scary, Xavier. Walking without knowing where it leads not knowing if everything will turn out alright.” I placed a hand on her shoulder, giving it a light squeeze. “It’s okay to be scared. But you’re not alone.”

It was this day... The day where we were supposed to leave in an unfamiliar journey that will have. It's not just a journey where you'll leave a country or place using a car, ship, or anything but this one... It's different because this time, we'll be going against the present world and go to the past. I'm excited and at the same time afraid of what might be the result of this plan of ours and what the world is planning against us. I know this world won't go easy on us even though we're already in a different era. And there, we don't know where we will start and how we'll end everything but we'll figure it out. We can do it as long as we trust each other which is hard for me but of course, I
