Miss Valkyrie's Come Back 소설 & 이야기

“I hate this. I really hate this.” I grabbed my jacket and stuffed my phone into my pocket. “You’re staying.” “What?” “You heard me.” I met her eyes. “You don’t need to be involved any further. You did what I asked. This isn’t your fight.” Valerie stared at me, then let out a dry laugh. “Oh, no, no, no. You don’t get to pull that card now. I’m already in deep, Bri. I hacked the damn system, remember? If this ship sinks, I’m going down with it whether I want to or not.”

A text from an unknown number. "Board meeting. Tomorrow. 10 AM. Come prepared. Your father is not the only one with votes. - V" My blood ran cold. How did she already have board members on her side? I showed the text to Hailey. Her face went pale. "She is moving fast," Hailey whispered. Too fast. Like she had been planning this for months. And suddenly I realized the terrifying truth. Valarie had not come back because she loved me. She had come back to take everything I had.

“Thomas. Same.” “You seem to have made a place for yourself in the New World.” “You seem to have joined the modern times,” John said. “Ah yes. Much has changed here, John. You might feel differently about coming back.” “Hmm.” “Enough with the pleasantries. Surely you know what this call is about.” “I wouldn’t think you would care about vampires being hunted and stolen on this continent. Unless it’s happening there too?” John said. “Don’t play coy, John. It doesn’t suit you. You think our seers wouldn’t see? You think we wouldn’t have an interest in the return of Valkyries?” He leaned forward. His fingers gripped the arms of his throne.

Cliff's name was displayed as the caller, and Maverick picked up his call immediately. “Boss, the maid reported that Miss Valencia requested a morning after-pill. Also, four masked kids who went live a few hours ago have dominated the trending search on every social media site. They reported their missing mother, and considering the information, their mother is Miss Valencia.” Cliff reported in a breath as if he were afraid of Maverick interrupting by asking a question. Children? Maverick's brows arched immediately, and a cold aura unconsciously emitted from him. It can't be that that silly woman gave birth to kids for his enemy, Corbyn Cirillo, can it? “Send it.” He tucked one hand and calm

Apparently, his abilities had to do with something close to electricity. “Val, where have you been? How the hell did you find us?” I asked, running to her. Valerie smirked, though her voice trembled. “You think I wouldn’t look for you? You’re my best friend. I’ll always try to make sure you’re safe.” I stared at her, breathless. “You could’ve been killed.” “Yeah, well.” She tossed her hair back. “We brought friends.” I turned to see Ruby, Laura and Claire. Their faces grim, but their spirits unbroken. Backup was finally here. Reinforcements.

The cavern itself seemed to react to her presence—the shadows stretching toward her, drawn to something unseen. Something had changed. And I had no idea how to bring her back. "Come back to me, Valkyrie," I murmured. I wasn’t sure if I was pleading with her or threatening whatever force held her captive. Maybe both. Then—her fingers twitched. Relief surged through me. I leaned closer. "Valkyrie?" Her breath hitched. Then— She gasped. Her body jerked as if she had been struck by lightning. And when her eyes snapped open, my heart nearly stopped.

You did not think that I would never return, right? Valtor said with the same evil grin plastered on his face that used to destroy everything. Vivian shook her head. She was shocked seeing him there. Of course, she knew one day he would come back to take his revenge and take them with him. But she never thought it would be this early. It was just eighteen years she had a peaceful life. But he came back to end it as well. In a blink of an eye, Valtor also stripped his clothes off of his body. He came back into the shower and cupped Vivian's face.

“An old lady came by your office this morning, and when Melissa couldn’t reach either of you, she called me. The lady said her name was Gertrude.” If Gertrude came by to give us a heads up, it meant that it was true. I couldn’t help but think it was Valerie, coming for revenge after what I had done to hurt her. That’s why she was back in Pleasant Hill - to lead her pack to me. Only now, she’d be stronger with the powers of a witch. “Did she say when they’d come?” “No. But she did say that whoever it is, is stronger now.”
