Seven Days War Novels & Stories

Reid lowered the phone slowly, the weight of everything pressing down on his shoulders. James broke the silence softly. “One week.” Reid nodded. “One week before everything explodes.” Outside, the city lights of Italy glittered innocently. Inside, a war was being planned.

"Seven days. Then it's over. And I'm finally free of him." I watch him leave. Cormac Brennan. The brother who feels nothing. Perfect ally for genocide. Seven days until the assault. Seven days to finalize plans. Seven days until Callum Brennan and eighty-three wolves die screaming. I'm looking forward to it.

“We came to change it all." Finnick stepped forward. “Then let’s finish it.” Rowan drew his sword. “We hold the line.” Mira smiled, thin and sharp. “And we burn anyone who tries to put this fire out again.” Kye slung his axe across his back. “About damn time.” Above us, the fractures shimmered. Not healing but waiting. The Seven were watching now. Not as gods. As witnesses and beneath it all, the world began to whisper. The fire had not ended. It had only just begun.

Because what Russo didn't know—what he couldn't know—was that Livia had already figured out his pattern. And patterns, once known, could be broken. She leaned against Alessandro in the car, watching Milan blur past the windows. "Seven days," she said quietly. "Seven days," he agreed. Seven days until the villa opened. Seven days until they took everything Russo had left. And then—finally—this war would end. But first, they had to survive one more round. One more move in a game that had already cost them everything. Livia closed her eyes, exhaustion pulling at her bones. Seven days. She could make it seven more days. She had to.

"I don't really know why. All I was ever told was that a war broke out in our pack and my dad left to protect us. He never really told us if he was part of the fight or what even caused it." "Interesting," I commented, settling back on the chair with piqued interest. She unfolded her arms and folded them again. "So, tell me. What's your story?" I took a deep breath and replied vaguely. "Well, I'm Seven, an orphan and only child of my parents. I am not from around here. I come from very far away." "Oh, really?" I nodded. "Where exactly are you from?" "Ermm... I'd rather not say."

She sarcastically made celebratory movements with her arms. “Alright,” said Eva. “Let’s close up shop for a while - at least a month or so. But let’s all keep our eyes and ears open though.” “You got it,” said T-Rex. “And if anyone needs any help, just holler at me.” Everyone affirmed the same with everyone else. They were the Seven, and would be there for each other no matter what. They had taken down Nightmare together, and promised to take down more scum in the future. But for now, they needed to get back into their normal lives.

My throat burned and my body ached from the weight of everything I was pretending not to feel. "I will," I said quietly. “For now.” Amber didn’t smile this time. She just looked at me, really looked, and in her eyes, I saw it. The same fire. The same grief. The same rage. And the same plan. “We make it seven days,” she said. “And then we leave everything.” My heart beat once, louder than the music, louder than the voices of wolves praising a marriage I wanted no part of. But in seven days, exactly one week, it’ll all be over.

“Never,’ I spat with disdain, filled with outrage. My wolf just ignored me and was just excited and singing happily, not caring if I was cheerful about it or not. She knows how I hate fated mates. “Thinking of refusing about the seven of us, shit, you can’t and it will take me nothing to suck the life out of you and leave you for dead.’ The seven of them? How ridiculous! What? “Oh, you haven’t perceived the other’s scent here,’ I looked around. There were only six. Well, their pheromones say there are seven of them. Where is the remaining one? I don’t give a damn. Seven mates. This was too much, not one mate, but seven. What am I, a robot or some sort of sex machine to them?

He pulled me into his arms, holding me so tightly he could have crushed me. "How could I bear to make you my mistress? And there's no way I'd break up with you! Just seven days, that's all. Once the contract is signed, it'll be over. Cara, you've always been so good to me, so patient. Can't you hold on just a little longer? For us?" By logic, I had waited seven years. What were seven more days? But I did not want to wait anymore. I smiled. Gently, sweetly, exactly the way he liked. "I understand."

I was. “You'll have access to the island,” I finally said. “You can bring the people you trust. But the rules are mine.” Harris took a deep breath, thought about my words for a moment before extending his hand forward again, “Then, we have a deal.” I looked down at his hand for a moment before looking up at him. Then, I smiled and shook his hand, “We have a deal.” His grip tightened around mine, and for the first time since I had woken up seven days before the apocalypse, I felt like I wasn't carrying everything alone.
