Scenes From Falling Down Novels & Stories

What has happened in the minutes that she'd fallen asleep in the office. Cerise hears footsteps resonating from the stairwell and a horde of aurums launch at her. In an instant, she makes a run for it but fails to do so as she's grabbed by the foot and thrown in the air. She raises her hand and drains all the oxygen in the room as quick as she could, but doing so drains her energy too. She sees all the aurums falling to their knees, coughing, strangling their necks in an attempt to grasp any sort of air. The last thing Cerise sees before passing out is Nicholas.

The nightmare grips me like a vice, dragging me under its suffocating weight. I see Neil, standing precariously at the edge of the under-construction building. He wavers, his arms flailing, and before I can scream, he falls. The sickening thud of his skull hitting the concrete below reverberates in my chest, sharp and deafening.

I dial my emergency number since my phone is in my hand. I watched Candice trying to flip herself and struggle to be free then she kicked the guy making her free. We both run and we went to an dark alley. Then we heard a gun shoot and we automatically frooze. Were both shivering of too much fright. "Hello babe!" And that's the last time I ever witness since I feel a needle in my neck making my eyes closed feeling dizzy. ************************************ Present I ran as I watched her being drag out of nowhere. I feel afraid since I didn't know the place where in. All I can hear a bird chirping.

Amelia struggled to fall asleep. All she saw were flashes of Jax being attacked. Watching him being beaten to the ground. Scratched. Bitten. Kicked. And there was nothing that she could do. She tried to run to him in her dreams but she couldn’t move. It was as if she were running on a treadmill…going nowhere. She could see it so clearly. As if she were there. But it was only her imagination trying to fit together pieces of some of the stories she overheard the other Betas talk about.

She was also unsure if Harrison felt the same way about her. One day, after work, they went out for drinks to celebrate their success. As the night went on and the alcohol flowed, Harrison and Emily, found themselves sharing more personal stories and talking about their hopes and dreams. In a moment of boldness, Harrison took Emily's hand and looked into her eyes. "I know this might be risky, but I have to tell you...I'm falling for you, Emily. I don't want to risk our friendship, but I can't ignore my feelings anymore."

The flickering lamplight cast long shadows across the room, mirroring the turmoil within Lena's heart. The evening stretched on, seemingly endless, as Lena remained motionless on the couch, lost in her thoughts and consumed by the rawness of her emotions. The tears continued to fall, each drop a testament to the shattered dreams and the love that had turned to ashes.

“…did you just scream his name like a wife in a war movie?” Lena stared at her. “This is not the time.” Kai blinked. “That was aggressively romantic.” “It was not!” “It absolutely was.” Noah looked personally offended. “This is how we die?” Elara sighed. “Can we panic about one issue at a time?” The ground beneath Group A suddenly collapsed. They all screamed as they fell. Again. Lena crashed into cold concrete. Pain exploded through her shoulder. Kai landed beside her. Very loudly. “Ow!”

She threw money away like it was nothing. But her good times didn't last long. She met a man at a casino who claimed to be a Vynolnian businessman. He told her about an investment opportunity that could double her money. Blinded by greed, Yvette believed him and invested most of her funds. The outcome was predictable. The so-called businessman was a fraud. Yvette not only lost her money but was also scammed out of over ten million dollars. Realizing she'd been tricked, she went to confront the man, only to get beaten up by his thugs. They threatened her, saying if she reported it to the police or caused any trouble, they'd take her life.
