Novel Stars Novels & Stories

I received a complaint and a one-star review. It was from Christian. He was using such a childish tactic just to force an apology out of me. He wanted to force me to admit the severe consequences I had to face for abandoning him back then. However, I had only loved him passionately, like the sun loved the stars. Could that really be considered a mistake? “No, Nova, you didn’t do anything wrong,” I comforted myself, completely in denial. “The only mistake is that the sun and the stars belong to day and night. They are destined to never be together.”

She gently traced my tombstone and whispered, "You are the starlight that vanished from my sky." Finally, my soul began to fade. Thank you, my sister.

Jeremy's POV. "The news is buzzing, Jeremy. You are making the headline. The biggest ice hockey team in the country, Cheetahs' captain and star player, pops out with a new girl. He's on all the news, and his best friend and wingman didn't even know about it." Chris whined, and I threw him a shift glance as I raised my gym weights over my head. "Come on now, man, I wasn't supposed to hear about your new girlfriend from the news.

I breathe him in—leather, smoke, danger and it’s intoxicating. “Nova,” I say finally, because my mouth is a traitor. “My name’s Nova.” His smile like he is right about something. “Figures.” “Figures?” “Stars burn out fast,” he says, his voice so soft it’s almost kind. Almost. “But when they go, they light up the whole sky.” And just like that, I know I’m in trouble. Big, blue eyed, leather-clad trouble.

The day I was released from prison, a woman claiming to be my ex-wife came to take me home. Instinctively, I pulled away when she reached for my hand. "I don't know you." She frowned, assuming I was still upset. "Five years ago, we agreed that once you got out, we'd remarry. Mom's getting older, and she misses you." Hearing that, I opened the diary I always carried with me. Written inside was an instruction: 'If someone claims to be your ex-wife, go home with her.' So, I did. After I returned home, I became the perfect husband and the perfect son in their eyes. When my ex-wife seemed to be fooling around with my younger half-brother, I pretended not to notice. When my mother openly admi

Not because they were physically heavy, but because of the words written between their thin pages. Worry was etched into my face, almost feeling like a tattoo at that point. I thought of Genevieve, her face pale and sickly, bent over the porcelain toilet bowl. I thought of Elise holding her dark hair back with one hand, putting the other soothingly on Genevieve's shoulder. "Do you think I am radiant like the stars in the night sky?" Nova asked, her soft voice breaking the silence. "Like your father used to tell me?" "You are more than radiant," I said. "The stars in the night sky don't compare to you."

The stars above shimmered like diamonds in the inky darkness, each one a beacon of light in the celestial. Nina’s eyes widened with amazement as she gazed upward. The sheer number of stars left her in awe. It was as though the sky had laid out its jewels just for them. Countless stars and constellations filled the sky, and they seemed to stretch to infinity. Standing beside her, Jayden was infected by her smile. He was glad that he could create a memorable evening for her. As they gazed at the stars, Jayden stood behind Nina and wrapped his arm around her, pulling her closer. He signaled to the crew, who nodded at him before leaving the couple alone.

I turn back to Theodore and I see his face is pulled tight, his jaw clenched as he watches this Grant guy pick up his children and hug Mrs Jenkins. Why do I sense some sort of rivalry here? “And you are?” Grant asks with a flirty smile as he extends a hand to me. I feel my face reddening from the attention of this twenty first century Greek god. Now that he's closer I can see the differences between him and his brother. He looks almost exactly like Theodore, but his face is older and softer, more approachable. I place my hand in his with a smile. “I'm Nova." “Nova?” His eyes narrow for a second, just for one second. “It means a bright star? Starlight, if I remember my astronomy correctly."

Beneath the rank of Planetary Stars was yet another rank – the last rank. Fabled Stars were the stars that came next, and the stars that were ranked last. The reason for this being that Fabled Stars did not inform the contracted of what they could do and what they could not do. You see, just as the Sovereign Suns and Chosen Stars had opted to tell Kylie of their names and abilities, the other stars could do same. While there were few who dared to question the stars, every star was mandated to give their names to any human or creature they were interested in, and their names would give one a clue as to what they did; however, Fabled Stars were not the same. They had no such restrictions and d

***** RICHARD A week later…. ‘I will be having a new stylist?’ The star of the new hit TV series, Richard Black, couldn’t believe his ear. He stood and slammed a fist on the CEO’s desk. ‘I said I want Rose! Did you not hear it?’ Jewel Virtus was unfazed. ‘I hear you loud and clear, Richard. And I also caught you loud and clear—.’ She gave her PA a nod and the slim girl opened up the iPad and flipped it around for Richard.
