Rescued For Life Novels & Stories

Because this time, I wasn’t waiting for rescue. I was the rescue. And when that door finally gave— I was coming for everything he’d taken. Starting with my life.

I was someone worth saving. Anika drew the poison from my body. Zenith stayed with me the whole night. By morning, they were gone. No names. No explanations. Just a life that had been spared. Mine. I did not track them. I did not send flowers. What could I possibly say? Thanks for rescuing the monster? But I never forgot.

Lorence's mind was filled with confusion but before he grasped the whole situation came another voice. "For you did something without any reservation, you've saved a precious life. Risking your life to save another, may it be because of love, kindness, or guilt, still it can't change the fact that what you did is an act of goodness. It is very known to us that you've done many bad things and decisions in life but still there's no greater treasure than one's life and we acknowledge your action of saving Miya. For that, we've decided to give you another chance."

A young woman with a ponytail and a broken arm sat in a wheelchair, a driving range visible behind her. "I was in a car accident. I almost didn't make it." She smiled, a little pained, her eyes rimmed red. "Everyone said I was finished, that my life was over. My parents cried like the sky had fallen in. Dr. Cole was the only one who stayed up all night, twelve straight hours, and pulled me back from death's door. He told me, 'Your life's just getting started, don't be afraid.'" She raised her right arm, moving it freely, and held it up to the camera, laughing through fresh tears. "Now I'm about to get my driver's license, using the very hand Dr. Cole saved. Dr. Cole, thank you. My whole fami

“But what about my friend’s t- they were, brutally murdered in front of my eyes, I know what I saw, and that was real.” “They weren’t any marks on your friend's body’s that could indicate that they were murdered they only had burnt marks which meant they were burnt alive, and so was Suzan.” “How can you explain Suzan being there? She was, kidnapped. How can you explain that? I wouldn’t have killed my friends, please you have to believe me?”

Thankfully I woke up just in time. When they told me what I'd done to myself in the time that I'd gone without eating, that I'd almost taken a life, I made up my mind then and there that I was going to get myself together. I had to live. I had something to live for other than Gabriel Russo. I could almost hear my mother's voice in my ear urging me on. I wanted to make her proud.

The pain of loss and betrayal, the paralyzing fear that I experienced during those days of darkness seemed like a dream…a nightmare that I had finally woken up from. My life had changed so much since those days. I thought of the darkness that had so nearly engulfed me, the burden of reality that had bore down upon my shoulders, and the loneliness that had become such a part of me. It was like living in a constant state of survival, always looking over my shoulder, always expecting the worst. My world as I knew it had crumbled, and I was trying to pick up the pieces, wondering if I would ever be the same. But then came the rescue. Not just from a physical standpoint, but from a lifeline that

I had to pull myself together and live. I gave myself a month-long mini-vacation. Each day, I ate, slept, read, and walked. Slowly, my strength returned, and I found work nearby. The first month I got paid, I adopted a stray dog. With it by my side, I no longer felt lonely. I thought life would stay this calm forever. But tonight, walking the dog after work, I rounded a corner—and froze at the sight of the person I never wanted to see again. Joe.

“Karani was well loved in this community. She had a wonderful heart and a warm smile for everybody. Her charity programs fed the homeless and her shelters gave them safety from the streets. Karani was such a special person, and her loss is greatly felt by all who knew her. I would like to read to you from John 11 verse 25 and 26. “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he dies, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die.” There was silence in the church and in my mind, I couldn’t understand what he was saying. “God wants us to live forever, we must find peace in His word. Trust and believe in Him. Let God comfort you and guide you

She got up and gave me a hug. "It's all over. Live for yourself from now on." It was something so simple, even an outsider understood. And yet, it had taken me six whole years to finally wake up. Fortunately, it still wasn't too late.
