Never Call Me By My Name Novels & Stories

★。＼｜／。★ VANESSA DAVIS ★。／｜＼。★ I could have gone to my bedroom to take this call, but I didn’t want to go that far.. I stopped in the hallway, just out of earshot. I’m not the type to run from my problems. Hell, I run right into danger, that’s just who I am.

Gage scans at the crowd and finally pointed at someone. "Yes you, what's your name?" He asks. Everyone moved their heads to me. "What's your name, love?" Gage asks me again. Oh you know damn well Stockholm. I didn't even raise my hand. "Did you raise your hand?" Adam asks. I didn't answer him. "Tate." I answer Gage. "We can sing some other songs if you want. So it's not only 1D tonight." Gage smiles at me. I glared at everyone who were waiting for me to say any title of the song. I know they want me to let the boys sing some 1D songs but I don't know some sure titles from their albums.

Whеn уоu’rе not wоrkіng thе ѕtrееtѕ іt’ѕ easy tо gеt lаzу, but I hаvеn’t. Mу phone screen lights uр whеn іt hаѕ enough роwеr. I have ѕоmе mіѕѕеd calls from Cаrrіе. Without lіѕtеnіng tо thе mеѕѕаgеѕ, I call hеr bасk. “Hеу, hоw’ѕ it gоіng?” “Blаkе, who thе hеll іѕ Nеоn Lips?”

But before I could dial it, a message popped up on my screen. From Adam, “Since you’re so upset about the Italy trip, maybe you should sit this one out. I still plan to go. Your father said he’ll introduce me to some important contacts. You can stay home and wait for me.” I stared at Adam’s message for a second, then I laughed. It wasn’t loud, just bitter. After that, I pressed call on Dr. May’s number. She answered on the second ring. When she heard my breathing, she didn’t waste time on unnecessary questions—she just asked for my location.

Unexpectedly, before the police contacted me, I received a call from Laura. “Felix, if you want your mother to live, get to the hospital rooftop right now.”

Alora I wasn’t angry at being sedated, and in fact Killian had asked me. I was afraid that if he attempted to keep me restrained in the car I would lose my ever loving shit. Not that I haven’t already been losing my shit, as that’s kind of been the whole theme for a little while now. Ah, who the fuck am I kidding, I have been losing my shit my whole fucking life.

I felt used , the words he told me that day hurt me , I was hurt , he was the least person that I expected it from . As I got out of the bathtub , I saw a call from Ava, she was in school now since I left her behind while leaving with my uncle . “ Bitch , I missed you , don’t tell me you didn’t ?” I asked her as I put the pills into my mouth and swallowed them . “ When are you going home , your uncle called “ she cut me off . I went silent, I didn’t know how to process that , what did she mean by he called .

She turned away from the crowd, answering in a low voice. “I told you not to call me for another two days!” The caller stammered on the other end. “I… I made a mistake.” Bethany’s eyes widened. “What? Tell me you didn’t. If you did, I’m in serious trouble!” The voice on the other end confirmed her fears. “Yes… I did.” " Shit"

If she wanted a war, then I was going to give her one. There was one call I had been avoiding. Not because I didn’t trust the man. Because once I made that call, there would be no going back. I finally dialled the number. It rang twice. “Look who finally remembered I exist.” I almost smiled. “Good morning to you too, Thor.” “You only call me when shit has hit the fan.” “You’re not wrong.” A low chuckle came through the phone before his voice turned serious. “You waited till your name is bustling all over the internet and you’re calling me now?”

I needed something else. Someone else. I took a slow breath, then unlocked my phone again, my fingers gliding with muscle memory. I dialed a number I hadn’t used in years. A number I’d saved under a name that would send most people running in the other direction. “Calling… Black Mamba.”
