Skye And Everest Novels & Stories

SKY’S POV Reyes called two days later with a name, though he delivered it carefully, like he wasn’t fully sure yet what to do with it. “Marty,” he said. “Team transportation coordinator. Been with the organization almost as long as I have.” “What about him?” “He requested access to the road trip scheduling system last week. Not unusual on its own — it’s literally his job. What’s unusual is the specific date range he pulled. Matches almost exactly with the hotel stay from last spring. The one where someone photographed you in the hallway.”

he said matter-of-factly. "Then where am I?" She mouthed slowly, "and why did you take me?" She tried to ask. "You are at Castle Free Sky. We are nestled on the very northern tip of Free Sky Cliff on the ocean shore of Maine. We are not on any maps or GPS systems as any more than a few coordinates. Built almost completely invisible to anyone who is not looking for it specifically," he told her proudly, most of it was true, anyways.

Lyle was just as happy to be out of there as I was. *** I forgot how beautiful the sky in Montana was, and when it came into view, tears filled my eyes. I was finally home, and it felt so damn good. Anaconda was the town I grew up just outside of. There were nine thousand people here, but many local ranches around the outskirts. The sight of the mountains took my breath away. The sun drifted closer to the mountains as it began to set. It would be dusk by eight o'clock. “Where are we, Mommy?” Lyle asked.

" The new arrival was a woman named Skye, twenty-three, whose power had awakened during a pack challenge fight. She fled before the pack could put her to death for murder after unintentionally killing her opponent with a burst of kinetic force. Fearful and alone, Sebastian discovered her sheltering in neutral territory. "This is Astrid," I said, letting her take the initiative. "She will be your primary teacher for basic training."

As soon as the meeting ended, Everest saw an opportunity to encounter Cheyne. "It's a disgrace you still want to control the Oddysey development project while the Black Canis have found what they are looking for," Everest spoke suddenly. With an arrogant attitude, he walked towards Cheyne, who was putting some folders into his briefcase. Cheyne raised his gaze at Everest, who suddenly spoke to him.

"You still think Skye's just some regular programmer?" Edward's tone was sharp with disbelief. "She's a top-tier hacker I managed to bring back through old connections! Letting her date you back then was me doing you a favor." Julian froze for several seconds, stunned speechless. When he finally found his voice again, it was full of incredulity. "Her?!" "Yes, her!" Edward barked, his patience gone. "Skye was the best match I could've arranged for you, and look what you've done! You went and got another woman pregnant—what a disgrace!"

When we reached the heavy oak doors of my study, she scanned the hallway, slipped inside, and waited for me to close the door before she spoke. "I contemplated showing this to Norman first," Skye said, pacing the length of the rug. She stopped and looked at me, her blue hair messy from a day of staring at monitors. "But I have to be honest, Sarah. I’ve been in this valley for forty-eight hours, and my spirit doesn’t just disagree with that man. His 'Mr. Perfect' aura gives me the absolute ick. There’s something performative about him." "Skye, if this is just about a personality clash—"

"They're not... Friends?" Ora took a saucer with a slice of cake on it from the buffet table as they walked, saying, "It's more of a rivalry thing, I suppose. They're like completely different people, as you can tell. Skye was born to a Father who no one still has any idea of though we all agree he must be drop dead gorgeous, because look at him, and a Mother that doesn't exactly care about him because she's too busy drinking.

Her voice announced their presence as he took his gaze off the screen. "Research," he replied, fixing his gaze back on the screen. Audrey narrowed her brow. "You are researching hot guys. Are you planning to turn into a hot guy because Ixora rejected you?" Audrey asked. Skye flickered her forehead. "Stop spewing trash." Audrey shrugged. "Just saying," she sat on the table. "Blake, what exactly are you searching for?" Skye asked. "A person who has the scent of obsidian veil," he replied.

“I have no idea what you are referring to.” Nova opened his mouth for the third time, but Skye raised her hand. “See no evil, hear no evil,” she said dramatically. “In fact, I did not see anything. I was not even here. I just walked in and I am already walking back out the same way I came in.” She started moving backwards slowly toward the door, still talking. “I will be outside waiting for Brad. We have a lot to do and I will be spending the night at his place. You two have fun. Be safe. Use protection. Lock the door. Bye!”
