Novel Freedom Novels & Stories

There was something about this girl that broke down my filters and I shook my head, I needed to stick to the plan, if nothing else at least I was coming across as scared. Silence fell in the room, and I watched the girl for a while before sitting back against the bars of the cage and closing my eyes. There wasn’t exactly a whole lot to do here, what I wouldn’t give for a little freedom, the chance to shift, to see the stars, small the air, read a book. All the small things in life that I had taken for granted now seemed to mean so much.

She wanted to pay off the orphanage bank loan for the property to stay theirs. With the back of her hand, she wiped her own tears rashly. She knew right when she was younger, at a party with different people in suit and dresses, she was going to live hell throughout her life. But just because she is born in a top family isn't supposed to mean they can take her freedom away. "I'm going to fight for my freedom," she muttered, inhaling deeply and then blew it out. "I'm going to use that marriage for my freedom."

Only one thought keeps coming to mind. I’m free. I’m free from his wounding words. His searing slaps. His bruising belts. His painful punches. I’m free from him. I’m free for only a month. But I’m free all the same and I’m going to make sure this is the best month of my life. *** My eyes flutter open as I wake up from the best sleep I’ve had in two years. I feel refreshed and energised even with the fact that I slept fully dressed in the clothes I wore this morning.

, " You're wrong; I desperately want freedom; my soul indeed feels lost, but it's still drowning in an endless pit of hell. What I want, is to be free " " And how do you think you can be free when you reek of anger, when your voice carries a heavy weight of pain? How do you think you can be free when your actions scream for revenge? If you think dying sets you free, then you might have just deceived yourself a big time". " What's the best freedom if not death?", " The best freedom is here," Libby places her palm on her chest, " even the dead ain't free if this place still feels heavy. "

The wolves surrounding her bowed in respect, not because they had to. I stepped next to her and said, "This is what I'm offering." "A world in which no one uses you as a pawn." a society in which you control your own fate. Her expression was unreadable as she gazed at the vision. I briefly believed I saw the smallest break in her determination, the flare of temptation in her eyes. "What do you gain from this?" Her voice was quiet as she requested. "Liberty," I said plainly. "Freedom for everybody." No more gods controlling our life, no more chains. only a future that we design for ourselves.

“One of the novel’s most pointed critiques is the loss of freedom. Gilead is a kind of tyranny that reveals just how unwilling we are, on both right and left, to challenge political assumptions in the name of protecting those we perceive, she argues, as innocents or society’s well-being.” “Yeah, and it’s not only physical freedom,” added Jessica, a classmate, whose last name I won’t use. “Mental and emotional control are equally important.” "Great points, Maya and Jessica," Mrs. Caldwell said, nodding. “Would you like to expand on that, Maya?” Before I could answer, there was a knock. The student counselor, Ms. Hayley, appeared with a young man. “Sorry to interrupt,” she said, “We’ve got a t

And for the record, I didn't send Faith. I feel a bit ashamed because so far Gabriel has been kind to me, ''I am sorry I didn't mean to make fun of the situation. I want to help create a better world. I just feel a bit overwhelmed with everything.'' Gabriel smiles at me, ''I wasn't mad Noelle. I just want to make sure you know you have a choice. Freedom is important to me, and it is one of the pillars of Liberum. I have been a slave, so I know how important having a choice can be.''

I gripped the edge of the tub. “We tried to escape when we were fifteen. I was useless to Elora; she only wanted Novel. But Novel took the bullet meant for me. Even as she took her last breath, she pressed those pills into my hand. Her last words were, ‘Sorry, I couldn't show you what freedom is... sorry I couldn't help you make friends.’” Tears slipped from my eyes, falling into the bathwater.

--- Elena looked ahead. Not searching for certainty. --- Not needing it. --- Because certainty was never the goal. --- Choice was. --- And as they stepped forward together— As the new world opened without limits— As the past released its hold and the future remained unwritten— One final truth remained: --- Freedom is not the absence of control… --- It is the presence of choice.

I admit and her head snaps towards me as if she had forgotten I was even present on this trip. “I don’t understand how people could kill a person that had a family, children to take care of..” I looked down at her and found myself wishing for an instant that I had her humble soul.
