Saving Jacob Novels & Stories

“No more coming back. I just wish I got to do something good for my people, after everything my family has put them through.” Jossie and Gynith exchange looks. “Actually, there is a way,” Gynith says. “We’re planning a big heist on the Warfare Warehouse the night after tomorrow, and it would be nice to have your help as we dismantle the watchtower.” “I’m in,” I say without thinking. “I’ll come with you, then after that I will go—” “Me too,” Hendrik says. When everyone stares at him, he raises his palms and continues, “Hey, I’m just saying that if he wants Elora to be gone, that means he wants me gone too. He nearly butchered my face.”

Samuel kept his gentle smile as if nothing scary had just happened. Fear welled up in Ella's heart, she didn't understand what Samuel was asking. What kind of power does Gabriella have? But when she saw the exhausted bird dying in her arms, Ella really couldn't breathe. Her chest constricted, squeezing her throat. At the moment when it seemed that Ella was about to collapse, suddenly a blinding white light emanated from Ella's hand and enveloped the bird. And when that light disappeared, the dove was healed and danced in Ella's palm.

If he hadn't intervened in time, Nina and the others would probably have been killed by Nehemiah. "It's alright. Even if I lose an arm, I can still ensure your safety. However, we must find a way to contact Mr. Ballard as soon as possible. Otherwise, I cannot guarantee that we will survive when the ten days are up!" Jacobus had once been a core member of the Juwanians, and he knew how they worked. Nehemiah wouldn't stop until he got the formula. He would use any means, no matter how ruthless. The only person who could save all of them was Sebastian.

He stood up and paced the room "You did the opposite, you not only saved the rogue's life but you brought her home. Am I missing something?" I sighed and ran a hand through my hair, he was my beta and he needed to know. He was next in rank after me and I needed all the support I could get. Since I lost my parents Justin has stood by me and I knew he was not about to abandon me. "It's a long story, Justin. And it's not one that I can easily explain." "Try me," he urged. I hesitated for a moment, not sure if I was ready to reveal the truth about my mate to anyone, even Justin. But I knew that I needed to confide in someone, and Justin was the only person I trusted enough to tell.

"Okay. Sleep again. I'll be on the deck with your brother and Theo. Just call me if you need something, alright?" I nodded and smiled. "Okay." Jacob left after that. I squeezed my eyes closed and tried to sleep, but I couldn't. I heaved a sigh. I can't forget about what happened. It bothers me so much. Unable to sleep anymore, I pulled myself up and went outside. I found Jacob, Theo, and Shane in the deck. They're talking. "My savings can support us, but I still want to work, so I'll try to build my own business." Jacob said after he drank a beer.

Of the bridge now joining the realms and the new world growing from the ashes of the old. Then he speaks of Jakob. My throat tightens slightly. I look behind me to his parents, his mother holding tightly to his father as tears streak down their stoic faces, pride and grief battling in their eyes. “Jakob stood where many would have fled,” Aurelion says. “He faced death knowing that his sacrifice would buy the moments needed to save us all.” His voice softens. “He died protecting the future.” The silence that follows is heavy with respect. Seraphina steps forward then.

"Block them." I nod and issue orders. He takes a deep breath. "We'll empty the warehouses tomorrow." I close the laptop. "I'll alert security." He turns to leave. "Ten minutes, the study." I rise and stretch. "Right behind you." And I follow knowing that tonight I have seen Dominic's finest quality. He did not hesitate to save Jacob. He did not hesitate to save me. He cares more than profit. I enter the study and find him reviewing reports. I hand him my notes. He flips through them. "Good work."

I replied in a sorrowful voice and placed a hand on his shoulder, my eyes locked with Jacob’s who was looking at us. “I’m sorry man, I just never wanted any of you to get hurt” Jacob spoke because he is the one who showed us her true colors, and he is the reason that I’m alive today. He has no reason to apologize to any of us but I know he never wanted us to get hurt, emotionally or physically but the truth is more important. “I know, but I’m thankful that you told us the truth,” Kevin said with a sad smile, the light in his eyes was gone and he looked less like himself, the once happy guy was replaced by a sad and serious man.

All of us shifted back. Jacob went to where he buried Addison's scrunchie and retrieved it. He put it in his left hand again as he inhaled her scent. That was the end of our day, and we all went back to the hotel suite. Jacob was oddly quiet the whole time; it seems like he was beyond exhausted to even bicker with Sir Payne. Or maybe he knows there is no point in doing so. We just have to end this as early as we can and go home. --------

"Y-You do?" "Yes, I do. If I pushed myself to make us one then I don't know if it isn't love," a single tear rolled down to my cheek. Jacob was left stranded and not responding. He may be at shock from what he heard. To be honest, I love Jacob. Just like how I love Dominick. They are the guys who saved me from the cruel times of my life. I love them. And I owe them a lot. Perhaps giving myself to them would somehow compensate even a fourth of what they did to me and how they helped me overcome to it.
