Rising Strong Novels & Stories

"To every woman who was told she was too emotional, too soft, too ambitious. To every person who lost everything and had to start again. This is your reminder that we rise. And we rise stronger." That night, Natalie sat on the balcony of her penthouse, watching the stars return to a sky once clouded by doubt. Lila joined her with two glasses of wine. "You know," Lila said, handing her a glass, "I always believed you’d come back. But I never expected this." "Neither did I," Natalie admitted. "But maybe sometimes we have to be burned down to remember what we’re made of." Lila raised her glass. "To rising from the ashes."

I curl my fingers into fists and send them flying into the air. “Come on, damn it. Quicker, quicker…” I drop to the ground, and sweep my leg across the dirt. Moves like this could determine life and death for me. I have to get stronger. I can’t rely on someone like Riven to keep me safe, not like I did before. Riven is a pack leader now, and I need to prove myself to him just like any of the other pack leaders.

The citizens, caught in the fervor of the moment, found solace and strength in their shared commitment to safeguarding their future. Rhesus, standing amidst the fervent assembly, absorbed the energy pulsating from the crowd. He raised his hand, acknowledging the support, and the crowd responded with an uproar of approval. "To the halls of resistance, we march!" Rhesus proclaimed, his voice carrying over the sea of faces. "Let this day be remembered as the birth of our defiance!"

I said, grinning at her. "Celebrate how??" Hestia said, teasing. Raising an eyebrow. "Celebrate like me undressing you out of this gorgeous two-piece and making you moan and scream my name." I said huskily, as my hands wander south, from her waist down to her ass. Hestia laugh then nods. I immediately lift her off the floor and started walking towards back our room, and Hestia is just laughing in my arms. //end of Flashback//

With James gone, this section of the web was fraying. “Push!” I roared, my voice cutting through the din. Crescent Moon surged forward. Forest Lake answered. The line advanced three paces in unison, boots and paws tearing up blood-soaked ground. Kayla lifted both hands, palms outward, and the earth responded. A jagged ridge erupted along our flank, splitting the battlefield and forcing the hybrids into a narrower front. It was a simple move that showed how much she’d learned since she left Blood Moon, how much she’d grown.

Emely stepped onto the small stage, holding a microphone with practiced elegance. “Thank you for attending this blessed evening,” Emely’s voice echoed. “Today is not only about my son Dewangga’s engagement to Vanes, but also about welcoming the heir of the Nasution family. The baby boy she carries will prove that our family will continue to thrive beyond any slander.” Polite applause followed, though cynical whispers about Serena lingered in the corners of the room.

He was a good fighter though, with a wide chest and big barrel arms. Of course, whenever he opened his mouth, you could pretty much bet that whatever was about to come out was a tall tale; and good luck getting him to stop once he got going.
